# Authenticating email with SPF
<a name="authenticate_domain"></a>

The Sender Policy Framework (SPF) is an email validation standard designed to combat email spoofing. *Spoofing* is the act of making an email sent by a malicious actor look like one sent by a legitimate user. For information about configuring SPF for your Amazon WorkMail-enabled domain, see [Authenticating email with SPF in Amazon SES](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/dg/send-email-authentication-spf.html).
