Is .pf safe? The state of .pf domain security
Partial dataset — .pf is still being processed; figures firm up in the next edition.
.pf is safer than the internet average. Across 394 graded .pf domains, 53.8% score an F — cleaner than the 78.3% global average — better company than most of the web. 4.8% earn a B or better. Most .pf domains can still be impersonated in email, but the ending shifts the odds, not your own domain's grade. As of 2026-08-16.
How do .pf domains score?
Aggregate grade distribution across all graded .pf domains — we never publish an individual business's grade. As of 2026-08-16.
| Grade | Domains | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A+ | 1 | 0.3% |
| A | 1 | 0.3% |
| B | 17 | 4.3% |
| C | 87 | 22.1% |
| D | 76 | 19.3% |
| F | 212 | 53.8% |
Does .pf 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 .pf doesn't protect you, and a high-F-share ending doesn't doom you: a correctly configured .pf domain earns an A while the crowd around it sits at F.

Frequently asked questions
Is .pf safe?
On average, .pf is safer than the internet average: 53.8% of its 394 graded domains score an F as of 2026-08-16, against a 78.3% global average. Most domains on every ending are exposed — the ending shifts the odds, not your own domain's grade.
How secure are .pf domains?
46.2% of .pf domains score above an F and 4.8% 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 .pf 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 .pf too.
What does "grade F" mean for a .pf 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.
