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

.cyou is riskier than the internet average. Across 320,175 graded .cyou domains, 89.4% score an F — worse than the 78.3% global average — heavier on exposed domains than the web as a whole. 0.1% earn a B or better. Most .cyou domains can still be impersonated in email, but the ending shifts the odds, not your own domain's grade. As of 2026-08-16.

Of 277,768 graded .cyou domains, 97.2% earn an F — well above the 73.8% internet-wide average. DMARC enforcement here stands at 1.2% — below the 11.8% census-wide rate.

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

Frequently asked questions

Is .cyou safe?

On average, .cyou is riskier than the internet average: 89.4% of its 320,175 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 .cyou domains?

10.6% of .cyou 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 .cyou 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 .cyou too.

What does "grade F" mean for a .cyou 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.
