How secure are Lebanon's domains?
Most businesses in Lebanon use a .lb domain. Across 2,606 of them, here's how their security stacks up — aggregate patterns only, never an individual business. As of 2026-08-16.
In the .lb zone — covering Lebanon — 56.1% of 2,606 graded domains earn an F, well below the 78.3% internet-wide average. Only 0.5% reach an A or A+ — the highest protection tier in the census.
We use .lb as a stand-in for Lebanon, based on the domain's ending rather than where a company is legally registered — so Lebanon businesses using a generic ending like .com aren't counted here.
Grade distribution
| Grade | Domains | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A+ | 1 | 0% |
| A | 11 | 0.4% |
| B | 99 | 3.8% |
| C | 374 | 14.4% |
| D | 660 | 25.3% |
| F | 1,461 | 56.1% |

What the .lb numbers cover
The 2026-08-16 census counted 2,645 registered domains in the .lb zone and was able to grade 2,606 of them. 544 (20.6%) no longer resolve at all — a dead domain still carries its DNS records, and can still be used to forge mail, so it is graded rather than ignored. A further 39 could not be determined and are excluded from the scoring denominator entirely.
At 56.1% failing, Lebanon sits below the 78.3% F-rate measured across every graded domain on the internet. 12 .lb domains (0.5%) score an A or A+, meaning they pass essentially every check we run.
What an F actually means here
A grade reflects 34 published checks across email authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), TLS and certificates, DNS security including DNSSEC and CAA, and web security headers. Most failing domains are not failing narrowly: the common pattern is no DMARC policy at all, an SPF record that authorises far more senders than intended, and no DNSSEC. Each of those is free to fix and takes minutes, which is why the failure rate says more about defaults than about effort.
Check a .lb domain
These are aggregates — we never publish an individual domain's result. To see where a specific domain sits against the 2,606 graded here, run it through the same 34 checks the census uses.
