Hi Marco,

Use Sender Policy Framework - see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sender_Policy_Framework and
http://www.openspf.org/

SPF is a DNS txt record which indicates whether a MTA (such as
hotmail, gmail, good ISPs) should accept email purportedly from
@bank.com when the source IP is i.e. a botnet.

Hi Guys,

I am preparing a set of recommendation for a client of mine which is a bank
, a set of controls against fhisging attacks, besides of telling the bank to
teach there customers how to protect against those attacks ( not opening
suspicious mails etc etc) what other recommendations are good? are there
some technological tools to prevent those attacks that the bank can
implement? I heard something about imperva radar service which should
protect against fishing attack, some one has experience with that tool? what
about other tools that the bank can implement?

many thanks!

Marco
