Is .kim safe? The state of .kim domain security
.kim is riskier than the internet average. Across 8,432 graded .kim domains, 87.2% score an F — worse than the 78.3% global average — heavier on exposed domains than the web as a whole. 1.1% earn a B or better. Most .kim 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 6,359 graded .kim domains, 81.3% earn an F — well above the 73.8% internet-wide average. DMARC enforcement here stands at 7.1% — below the 11.8% census-wide rate.

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

Frequently asked questions
Is .kim safe?
On average, .kim is riskier than the internet average: 87.2% of its 8,432 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 .kim domains?
12.8% of .kim domains score above an F and 1.1% 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 .kim 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 .kim too.
What does "grade F" mean for a .kim 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.
