  1. Containerized
  2. Multitenant
  3. Load balanced

A user attempts to send an invoice to a customer.
When the user follows up with the customer to see if the invoice was received, the customer informs the user that it went to the spam folder.

Which of the following should the systems administrator implement?

  1. SPF
  2. DMARC
  3. XDR
  4. DNSSEC
