A cybersecurity analyst receives a report of a phishing email that appears to be from a high-ranking executive in the company, asking for sensitive information. Which email header field is the BEST to examine to verify the authenticity of the sender's email address?
Date
Subject
Content-Type
Received
The 'Received' field in the email header provides information about the servers the email passed through on its way to the recipient. By examining the series of IP addresses and server information, you can trace back to the originating email server and better verify if the email originated from a legitimate source or is spoofed.
