A staple virtually all brands use, SPF protects against impersonation. Basically, an organization will send someone an email from their domain's name. In order to prevent organizations from sending emails from a domain to which they do not belong, the Sender Policy Framework (SPF) includes a list of authorized IP addresses that are allowed to send emails on your behalf from your domain.
