Is .build safe? The state of .build domain security

.build is safer than the internet average. Across 9,605 graded .build domains, 67.1% score an F — cleaner than the 73.8% global average — better company than most of the web. 3.8% earn a B or better. Most .build domains can still be impersonated in email, but the ending shifts the odds, not your own domain's grade. As of 2026-07-29.

How do .build domains score?

Aggregate grade distribution across all graded .build domains — we never publish an individual business's grade. As of 2026-07-29.

Does .build make a domain secure?

No — and that's the most important thing to know. A domain's grade is decided by how it is configured (SPF, DMARC, HTTPS, DNS), not by its ending. Choosing .build doesn't protect you, and a high-F-share ending doesn't doom you: a correctly configured .build domain earns an A while the crowd around it sits at F.

Frequently asked questions

Is .build safe?

On average, .build is safer than the internet average: 67.1% of its 9,605 graded domains score an F as of 2026-07-29, against a 73.8% global average. Most domains on every ending are exposed — the ending shifts the odds, not your own domain's grade.

How secure are .build domains?

32.9% of .build domains score above an F and 3.8% earn a B or better. The rest fail the basic externally observable protections, most importantly enforced SPF and DMARC, so they can be impersonated in email.

Does choosing .build make my domain secure?

No. A domain's grade comes from how it is configured — SPF, DMARC, HTTPS, DNS — not from its ending. A well-configured domain earns an A on any ending; an unconfigured one sits at F on .build too.

What does "grade F" mean for a .build domain?

It fails the basic protections we can observe from outside — above all, it has no enforced SPF and DMARC, so its email can be forged and its customers targeted with convincing fakes.
