Website & Email DNS Restoration for a Nonprofit

Portfolio project
Corwin Ott
A nonprofit connected its domain to a new Squarespace website, and the DNS changes put both the website and its Google Workspace email at risk.
What I did: reviewed the DNS zone, verified the four Squarespace A records and the www CNAME, confirmed MX routing to Google Workspace, reviewed SPF, configured DKIM, and added a DMARC record with aggregate reporting.
Testing: the live website loaded, and Google Workspace email sent and received successfully in both directions.
Result: website and email restored the same day, with clear next steps for authenticating their newsletter platform before the next campaign.
