Palisade vs DMARC360

DMARC360 vs Palisade in 2026

DMARC360 is CTM360's platform for collecting and analyzing DMARC data, finding email sources, and deploying email-security frameworks. Palisade takes a different operating approach: its AI agent investigates the work, drafts the fixes, and leaves each change for your approval.

Our verdict: Pick DMARC360 if you want CTM360's broader cybersecurity platform alongside DMARC implementation, reporting, and analyst support. Pick Palisade if you want an AI agent to carry the investigation and configuration work through each approved enforcement step.

The scorecard

Palisade vs DMARC360: score evidence and limitations

Both products are scored on the same eight dimensions the comparison hub uses, so the figures here are the figures there. Four are derived from vendor facts that each carry a source and a checked date. Four are editorial, marked as such below, and each states its reasoning and its source.

Each dimension is out of 10 and the total is the raw sum out of 80, rescaled to 100 — the raw figure is printed beside it so the conversion is checkable rather than a black box. Scored on what each vendor publishes, not on how the product feels in use. Unknown scoring dimensions are shown as Not established; provisional scores average only established dimensions and show coverage. They may change as remaining dimensions are verified. Current ranks include full and provisional scores; equal displayed scores share a rank. Historical assessments are separate. Editorial dimensions last reviewed 2026-10-15.

MCP & API connectivityEditorial

How reachable the vendor's DMARC data is from your own software and AI tools. Two paths count, an API and an MCP server, and each only if it reaches DMARC data (domains, records, reports or sending sources). A path is open when it is documented and included from the cheapest paid plan; gated when it needs a higher tier, an add-on, a sales call or a request, or the vendor does not say which plans include it. 10 = both open. 9 = one open, one gated. 8 = both gated. 7 = one open, the other absent. 6 = one gated, the other absent. 5 = access claimed in marketing only, with no docs or plan listing. 4 = reachable only through a self-hosted tool's own interface or a host platform's API, such as parsedmarc's library or Splunk's REST API; a dashboard over a database you run yourself does not count. 3 = no API or MCP server reaches DMARC data.

In depth

Where Palisade and DMARC360 actually differ

Each argument keeps the product screens, sourced comparison points, and supporting analysis together.

Guidance vs agent execution

DMARC360's implementation model

DMARC360 frames implementation as an issues workflow. Its implementation page says the platform identifies vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in email-security frameworks, classifies issues by impact, and supplies remediation steps in one place. It also advertises alerts when an issue is detected or resolved, delivered through email or the browser. Source (2026-08-26)

  • AI agent that investigates senders and drafts each enforcement step: Agent drafts and proposes
  • Automated email-security issue detection and remediation guidance: Agent drafts proposed fixes

Palisade is built around a different division of labor. Its agent investigates every sender, drafts every fix, and proposes each policy step; your team approves before anything ships. That matters when the problem is not finding a dashboard, but getting through the repeated work of identifying legitimate senders, preparing SPF and DKIM changes, and moving a domain toward enforcement with a review at every step.

Visibility vs guided resolution

Reporting, senders, and remediation

DMARC360's reporting module gives operators a simplified view of DMARC reports and recipient feedback. CTM360 says the module helps identify issues that affect deliverability, while its SPF and DKIM view tracks progress on those frameworks. The main task is visibility: understand which sources are sending on behalf of the domain and where authentication needs attention. Source (2026-08-26)

The implementation page adds automated issue identification and automated, optimized remediation solutions. That is genuine parity with Palisade on detecting problems and organizing fixes. The distinction is what happens after the issue card appears: DMARC360's public copy describes a platform and support team, while Palisade's agent carries the investigation and draft configuration work forward for approval. Source (2026-08-26) Source 2 (2026-08-26)

Protocol range vs workflow focus

Protocol coverage beyond DMARC

DMARC360 covers more than aggregate-report viewing. Its public product page lists hosted MTA-STS, MTA TLS Reporting, and hosted BIMI, alongside source monitoring, impersonation insights, and automated issue analysis. Its reports module also gives operators SPF and DKIM status information, so the public feature set spans the main email-authentication records and adjacent transport controls.

Palisade product evidence · Vendor source, checked 2026-07-17
  • Hosted MTA-STS and TLS reporting: Hosted on managed DNS
  • Hosted BIMI: Hosted on managed DNS

Palisade's hosted-record surface includes SPF, DKIM, DMARC, BIMI, and MTA-STS, but the buying question is not only protocol count. If your team wants CTM360's security context and analyst support around email security, DMARC360 is a reasonable narrow fit. If you want one agent to work across sender discovery, authentication configuration, and the path to p=reject, Palisade is the more direct fit for that operating model.

Partner access vs MSP operations

MSP workflow and platform boundaries

CTM360 has a partner program and describes reseller and MSSP opportunities around its consolidated cybersecurity platform. Its public pages also mention outbound integrations across Splunk, Slack, JIRA, and more. Those pages do not describe a DMARC-specific multi-tenant client console, white-label DMARC reports, or ConnectWise, HaloPSA, or Autotask integrations. That is an evidence boundary, not a claim that the product cannot support those workflows in a private engagement. Source (2026-08-26) Source 2 (2026-08-26)

  • Multi-tenant client management and white-label reporting: Multi-tenant MSP workflow
  • Native ConnectWise, HaloPSA, and Autotask integrations: Native PSA integrations

For an MSP, that leaves an important fit question to ask in a sales conversation: how are client domains separated, how are reports branded, how are recurring DNS tasks assigned, and which PSA or API path creates the operational record? Palisade's MSP product is explicit about the operating model: multi-tenant management, native ConnectWise, HaloPSA, and Autotask integrations, and per-client-domain pricing that does not meter client email volume. Those are the areas to compare directly before switching.

Native PSA integrations

Palisade imports client domains straight from these three. DMARC360's own coverage is stated above, from their site.

  • Autotask

CTM360 AI and DMARC360 integration scope

CTM360 advertises Agentic AI for threat detection, phishing analysis, attack-surface intelligence, and incident investigations. Its DMARC360 product page describes DMARC data collection, email-traffic analysis, framework deployment, and analyst support. The public sitemap lists no developer portal, REST or GraphQL API reference, or MCP server, so CTM360 does not advertise a documented customer API or AI-assistant connection for DMARC360 (checked 2026-08-27).

Pricing

DMARC360 pricing explained (and how Palisade compares)

CTM360 publishes DMARC pricing as the DMARC Compliance module in its consolidated-platform pricing page. The page lists a free Community Edition and four annual tiers for email-sending domains; the DMARC360 brand page itself directs visitors to CTM360's pricing and contact flows.

Palisade’s figures are derived from its published tiers. DMARC360 pricing or licensing source reference: vendor source citation date 2026-10-13. Plans and prices may have changed since.

How DMARC360 prices

  • The published figures are starting prices, not a complete quote for every deployment. CTM360's page labels DMARC as an add-on/module within its consolidated platform.
  • The pricing comparison shows a monthly email-volume allowance and a data-visibility window for each tier. The page also says DMARC managed service at the base price covers one brand with one primary domain and its subdomains; extra primary domains or brands incur additional charges.
  • The Community Edition is free access to CTM360's platform for one authorized user per organization. CTM360's Community Edition terms say the platform can help organizations implement DMARC on email-sending domains, but they do not present it as a full equivalent of every paid DMARC tier (checked 2026-08-26).

How Palisade prices

  • Palisade publishes flat monthly IT-team plans sized by email volume from $19/month. Its MSP model is portfolio-based per client domain, with a minimum of 5 client domains and a free Not-For-Resale domain for the MSP's own operation.
  • Palisade's agentic workflow is the main pricing comparison, not a promise that every vendor's plan maps one-to-one. The agent investigates senders, drafts SPF/DKIM fixes, and proposes policy steps for approval before anything ships.
  • Palisade offers a 15-day full-product trial, and nothing is charged until the trial ends. CTM360 offers a free DMARC360 Community Edition entry point and request-proposal flows for paid DMARC tiers; confirm current access requirements with CTM360.

DMARC360 · Overview

DMARC360 is CTM360's platform for collecting and analyzing DMARC data, finding email sources, and deploying email-security frameworks. Its implementation workflow identifies vulnerabilities and misconfigurations, classifies issues by impact, and supplies remediation steps and alerts. The platform is aimed at teams that want DMARC reporting, source monitoring, and guidance within CTM360's broader cybersecurity platform.

CTM360 publishes DMARC pricing as the DMARC Compliance module in its consolidated-platform pricing page. It lists a free Community Edition and four annual tiers for email-sending domains. The Community Edition includes one email-sending domain, 5,000 monthly email volume, one month of data visibility, and limited automated services.

Palisade · Overview

Palisade is built around an agent that does the DMARC work rather than reporting on it. It identifies every sending source, drafts the SPF and DKIM changes each one needs, and proposes the next policy step when the evidence supports it.

The agent investigates every sender, drafts every fix, and proposes each policy step, you approve before anything ships.

DMARC360 · What it covers
  • Advertises automated email-security issue detection and remediation guidance
  • Provides DMARC report collection and analysis
  • Provides email-source monitoring with SPF and DKIM insights
  • Provides hosted MTA-STS and TLS-RPT
  • Provides hosted BIMI
Palisade · What it covers
  • The agent investigates senders and drafts the fix, so the work arrives prepared rather than as a list of findings
  • Hosted SPF, DKIM and DMARC records, so an approved change can be carried out rather than handed off
  • Portfolio workflow for MSPs, with ConnectWise, HaloPSA and Autotask integrations and a free NFR domain
  • An MCP server and a REST API, so the same data and workflow are reachable from the AI tools a team already uses
DMARC360 · Where it stops
  • Does not advertise a DMARC-specific enforcement agent
  • Does not advertise multi-tenant client management or white-label DMARC reporting
  • Does not advertise named ConnectWise, HaloPSA, or Autotask integrations
  • Does not advertise hosted SPF, DKIM, or DMARC records
  • Does not publish a REST or GraphQL API reference
Palisade · Where it stops
  • Every policy change waits for a human approval, by design: nothing ships on the agent's own authority
  • MSP pricing is portfolio-based per client domain, with a minimum of 5 client domains
  • Plans are sized by monthly email volume, so a low-domain, high-volume sender lands on a higher tier than domain count alone suggests

Questions

Palisade vs DMARC360: FAQ

What is DMARC360?

DMARC360 is CTM360's email-security platform for collecting and analyzing DMARC data, monitoring sending sources, identifying issues, and supporting deployment of email-security frameworks. CTM360 also positions it inside a broader digital-risk and threat-intelligence platform.

What is the main difference between DMARC360 and Palisade?

DMARC360 presents an automated issue and reporting workflow with analyst support. Palisade is agentic: its agent investigates senders, drafts SPF and DKIM fixes, and proposes each policy step while your team approves before anything ships.

How much does DMARC360 cost?

CTM360's public DMARC pricing lists a free Community Edition, then Restricted from $300 per year, Basic from $2,000 per year, Advanced from $4,500 per year, and Enterprise from $8,000 per year. The page presents these as starting prices and lists email-volume, domain, and data-visibility limits by tier. Managed-service base pricing covers one brand and one primary domain with its subdomains; additional primary domains or brands incur extra charges. Source (2026-10-13)

Does DMARC360 have a free option?

Yes. CTM360 publishes a free Community Edition. Its free-access page says access is for one authorized user per organization and is granted after CTM360 reviews the request; the public pricing page lists one email-sending domain and 5,000 monthly email volume for the Community Edition.

Does DMARC360 support MSPs?

CTM360 publishes a partner program that includes reseller and MSSP pathways. Its public DMARC pages do not document a DMARC-specific multi-tenant console, white-label reporting, or the ConnectWise, HaloPSA, and Autotask integrations that Palisade publishes, so an MSP should confirm those workflow details before buying.

Can I run DMARC360 and Palisade at the same time while switching?

Yes. DMARC aggregate reporting supports multiple report recipients, so you can send reports to both platforms during an evaluation period. Keep DNS and policy changes under your team's review, compare sender evidence in both systems, and retire the old destination only after the new workflow is ready.

Switching from DMARC360 takes three steps

  1. 1

    Batch-import your domains

    Bring your client domains into Palisade in bulk, or let your ConnectWise, HaloPSA, or Autotask integration sync them automatically.

  2. 2

    Run both platforms in parallel

    Keep both reporting destinations configured during the overlap, verify external-report authorization where required, and confirm reports arrive in both platforms before retiring DMARC360. Review hosted-record dependencies before changing DNS.

  3. 3

    Cut DNS over on your schedule

    Point records at Palisade's hosted infrastructure, then retire the old setup when you're satisfied.
