Redirect branded email subdomain

Our security team would like our email branding domain to be forwarded like the situation with landing page domain.

 

Is it possible to redirect the email branding sub-domain to our homepage or elsewhere?

 

Thanks!

It's not possible: see the recent thread https://nation.marketo.com/t5/Product-Discussions/Redirect-Root-Branding-Domain/m-p/311085#M175676.  (Can't imagine what this has to do with security!)

Thanks Sanford.

 

As far as security goes, the below screenshot is one of the things the team is referencing on our email tracking domain.

 

"Security headers are not configured/defined and Weak Ciphers are supported"

 

Trying to figure out an answer as it doesn't sound like this is something that we can have changed on Marketo's end correct?

Those security grades — though arbitrary & debatable — have nothing to do with whether the root of the branding domain redirects or not.

 

The security config of the root URL is exactly the same as the root URL + a valid redirect path

 

That is, https://branding.example.edu/MjUwLUxWRy0wNzYAAAF7neoCUlpCUwvWrMX6ro2Rn-rJBnlfzmz  and https://branding.example.edu/  are the same server with the same exact security characteristics/features/shortcomings. So I still don't know why they're talking about the root URL.
