5️⃣ Validate a domain

This article will help you correctly configure your domains and ensure all your attacks are sent.

Updated this week

ℹ️This article is a duplicate of the "Verify a domain" article that you can find in the "Getting Started with Riot" section.

❶ Introduction

We are required to verify domain ownership to prevent any domain spoofing attempts and thus attacks.

In the Settings > Domains > Verify tab.

2 options:

  • I select my generic email address

  • I use the DNS method

👉 Step 2: Filter Riot phishing emails

API method (preferred): This method allows attacks to be delivered directly to the user's mailbox. Note: If you don't have Microsoft or Google, you must use the manual method.

Manual method: You will need to validate all domains manually using the documentation below. Google Documentation: https://tryriot.com/en/setup-google/ | Microsoft Documentation: https://tryriot.com/en/setup-microsoft/

If you use an external anti-spam, you will need to whitelist Riot to ensure that phishing emails are properly delivered.

To test that whitelisting is working correctly, you will be asked to send a test email to check that the emails are not blocked.

💡 Prerequisite: In order to select the admin, you must ensure that the admin's email address is validated as a domain. For example: [email protected] | [email protected]
