Free domain tools

Domain, DNS and email security tools

Every public CloudSpex checker in one place, grouped by the question it answers — from who may send email as your domain to whether a validating resolver still accepts your DNSSEC chain.

Each tool applies deterministic scoring to real measurements and says plainly when something could not be assessed. No signup required.

Email Authentication

Who may send mail as your domain, and what receivers do when a message fails.

SPF Record Checker

Resolve the full include and redirect chain, count DNS lookups against the 10-lookup limit, and find duplicate mechanisms, void lookups and weak terminal policies.

DKIM Checker

Fetch the DKIM record for a selector you know, interpret its tags, and see whether the public key is present, revoked or malformed.

DMARC Checker

Inspect the published policy, see how none, quarantine and reject differ in practice, and find records receivers cannot interpret.

Email Security Check

The combined view: MX, SPF and DMARC measured together with one score, so you can see which part of the mail setup needs attention first.

BIMI Record Checker

Read the BIMI record, see whether a logo and verified mark certificate are declared, and whether DMARC enforcement is strong enough for the logo to show.

Email Transport Security

Whether mail to your domain travels over TLS, and how delivery problems get reported.

MTA-STS Checker

Read the _mta-sts record, fetch the actual policy file, and report the real mode — a published record alone enforces nothing.

TLS-RPT Checker

Check the _smtp._tls record, list the reporting destinations, and find records that are published but cannot receive a single report.

DNS Security & Infrastructure

The layer everything else stands on: resolution, delegation, signing and issuance control.

DNS Health Check

Test whether the domain resolves at all and separate DNS root causes from the SSL and HTTP failures they masquerade as.

DNSSEC Checker

Check whether the zone is signed and whether a validating resolver accepts the chain — including the broken state that makes a domain unreachable for most users.

Nameserver Checker

Ask every delegated nameserver directly, find lame delegation, and see when servers disagree about the same zone.

CAA Record Checker

See which certificate authorities may issue for the domain, and find CAA policies that accidentally block all issuance.

Web Security

What a visitor's browser actually gets: the certificate, the protocols and the response headers.

SSL Certificate Checker

One read-only handshake: certificate validity and expiry, SAN coverage, chain state, negotiated cipher and which TLS versions the server accepts.

Security Headers Checker

Review CSP, HSTS, framing protection, cookie flags, CORS and the rest of the response-header allowlist, with what's missing stated plainly.

Domain Monitoring

One-time checks answer today's question; monitoring catches tomorrow's change.

Domain Health Check

DNS, SSL and HTTPS measured together with a single score and the failing layer identified — the widest one-time view of a domain.

Free Domain Scan

The quickest entry point: a limited public scan of SSL, DNS and HTTPS health, with a path to continuous monitoring when you need history.

Frequently asked questions

Are these tools free to use?

Yes. Every checker on this page runs without an account. Rate limits apply per visitor so the tools stay available for everyone.

How are the results scored?

Each checker applies a fixed, deterministic rule set, so the same configuration always produces the same score. Components that could not be measured are excluded from the score instead of being counted as failures.

Why do some results say 'not assessed'?

When a lookup times out or a signal cannot be verified, CloudSpex reports 'not assessed' rather than guessing. An unmeasured component is not the same as a failing one, and the reports keep that distinction visible.

What is the difference between these checks and monitoring?

A checker answers today's question: how is this domain configured right now? CloudSpex monitoring re-measures your domains continuously and alerts you when the configuration drifts, so the next change does not go unnoticed.

From one-time checks to continuous monitoring

These checkers show a domain as it is right now. CloudSpex monitoring re-measures your domains continuously — SSL expiry, DNS changes and email security signals — and alerts you when the configuration drifts.
