What the Results Reveal

  • Scores span 54% down to 31% — 0 of 5 reach a Good (70%+) posture.
  • 5 of 5 scored below 60%, leaving stakeholders exposed to phishing and impersonation.
  • Weak authentication undermines compliance expectations and increases BEC and wire-fraud risk.

Why This Matters in Missouri

Missouri real estate brokerages are high-value BEC targets during closings. State commission guidance and ALTA wire-fraud prevention practices depend on strong domain authentication.
