# SES Identity

SES Identity in AWS represents an email address or domain that you verify to use with Amazon Simple Email Service. It includes attributes for DKIM configuration, custom MAIL FROM domain settings, and verification status. These attributes help ensure email authenticity, improve deliverability, and comply with sending requirements.
