Is .mx safe? The state of .mx domain security — Mexico
.mx is safer than the internet average. Across 876,880 graded .mx domains, 63.3% score an F — cleaner than the 78.3% global average — better company than most of the web. 1.7% earn a B or better. Most .mx domains can still be impersonated in email, but the ending shifts the odds, not your own domain's grade. As of 2026-08-16.
In the .mx zone — covering Mexico — 60.6% of 737,788 graded domains earn an F, well below the 73.8% internet-wide average. Only 0.1% reach an A or A+ — the highest protection tier in the census.
Note: .mx is used as a proxy for Mexico based on the domain's TLD, not where the company is registered.
How do .mx domains score?
Aggregate grade distribution across all graded .mx domains — we never publish an individual business's grade. As of 2026-08-16.
| Grade | Domains | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A+ | 160 | 0% |
| A | 689 | 0.1% |
| B | 13,815 | 1.6% |
| C | 116,525 | 13.3% |
| D | 191,026 | 21.8% |
| F | 554,665 | 63.3% |
Does .mx 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 .mx doesn't protect you, and a high-F-share ending doesn't doom you: a correctly configured .mx domain earns an A while the crowd around it sits at F.

Frequently asked questions
Is .mx safe?
On average, .mx is safer than the internet average: 63.3% of its 876,880 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 .mx domains?
36.7% of .mx domains score above an F and 1.7% 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 .mx 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 .mx too.
What does "grade F" mean for a .mx 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.
