What is BIMI and how is it supposed to help with Phishing., (Thu, Apr 7th)

Earlier this week, I talked about how Phishing is still a huge problem and how compromised WordPress installs and free file hosting services are abused. But the root cause why Phishing works is more “human”: Phishing works because it is hard to figure out if an email or a website is authentic. Over the years, many technical solutions have been implemented to make it easier to recognize valid senders or a valid website. TLS helps, but not if the attacker comes up with a decent look-alike domain or can obscure the hostname with lengthy prefixes. DKIM and SPF help, but they again do nothing against look-alike domains.
