I analyzed stripe.com and github.com — their DNS reveals their email provider, hiring tools, and security posture

A developer has created DomainIntel, a free API that analyzes a company's domain name system (DNS) records, SSL certificates, and HTTP headers to reveal their email provider, hiring tools, and overall security posture. By comparing Stripe and GitHub, the tool highlights differing security philosophies: Stripe uses a lean stack with a strict 'reject' DMARC policy, while GitHub employs a broader set of services with a more lenient 'quarantine' policy. This analysis can provide a clearer picture of a company's operational hygiene and security practices than traditional vendor evaluation methods. AI
