Since 25 September 2023 configuration of DMARC protocol is mandatory for public entities in Poland. The article presents the status of implementation of the DMARC, SPF and DKIM security protocols in domains used by healthcare entities in Poland. Selected domains were analyzed using EasyDMARC online software. Out of 302 domains, the DMARC protocol was somehow configured in 232, including 181 in secure way, and was missing in 70. Other protocols are used with varying degrees of success. The SPF protocol is properly implemented in most examined domains, while vast majority of domains is missing the implementation of DKIM protocol.
