Is .mt safe? The state of .mt domain security — Malta
.mt is safer than the internet average. Across 10,984 graded .mt domains, 49.6% score an F — cleaner than the 73.8% global average — better company than most of the web. 4.9% earn a B or better. Most .mt domains can still be impersonated in email, but the ending shifts the odds, not your own domain's grade. As of 2026-07-29.
Note: .mt is used as a proxy for Malta based on the domain's TLD, not where the company is registered.
How do .mt domains score?
Aggregate grade distribution across all graded .mt domains — we never publish an individual business's grade. As of 2026-07-29.
| Grade | Domains | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A+ | 10 | 0.1% |
| A | 33 | 0.3% |
| B | 495 | 4.5% |
| C | 1,791 | 16.3% |
| D | 3,209 | 29.2% |
| F | 5,446 | 49.6% |
Does .mt 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 .mt doesn't protect you, and a high-F-share ending doesn't doom you: a correctly configured .mt domain earns an A while the crowd around it sits at F.

Frequently asked questions
Is .mt safe?
On average, .mt is safer than the internet average: 49.6% of its 10,984 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 .mt domains?
50.4% of .mt domains score above an F and 4.9% 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 .mt 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 .mt too.
What does "grade F" mean for a .mt 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.
