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

Most .vip domains can still be impersonated in email, but the ending shifts the odds, not your own domain's grade. As of 2026-07-29.

Does .vip 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 .vip doesn't protect you, and a high-F-share ending doesn't doom you: a correctly configured .vip domain earns an A while the crowd around it sits at F.

Frequently asked questions
Is .vip safe?
On average, .vip is riskier than the internet average: 96.4% of its 1,204,862 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 .vip domains?
3.6% of .vip domains score above an F and 0.1% 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 .vip 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 .vip too.
What does "grade F" mean for a .vip 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.
