Is .mz safe? The state of .mz domain security — Mozambique
.mz is safer than the internet average. Across 10,566 graded .mz domains, 51.5% score an F — cleaner than the 78.3% global average — better company than most of the web. 2.7% earn a B or better. Most .mz 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 .mz zone — covering Mozambique — 48.2% of 9,066 graded domains earn an F, well below the 73.8% internet-wide average. Only 0.3% reach an A or A+ — the highest protection tier in the census.
Note: .mz is used as a proxy for Mozambique based on the domain's TLD, not where the company is registered.
How do .mz domains score?
Aggregate grade distribution across all graded .mz domains — we never publish an individual business's grade. As of 2026-08-16.
| Grade | Domains | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A+ | 6 | 0.1% |
| A | 27 | 0.3% |
| B | 252 | 2.4% |
| C | 1,251 | 11.8% |
| D | 3,586 | 33.9% |
| F | 5,444 | 51.5% |
Does .mz 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 .mz doesn't protect you, and a high-F-share ending doesn't doom you: a correctly configured .mz domain earns an A while the crowd around it sits at F.

Frequently asked questions
Is .mz safe?
On average, .mz is safer than the internet average: 51.5% of its 10,566 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 .mz domains?
48.5% of .mz domains score above an F and 2.7% 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 .mz 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 .mz too.
What does "grade F" mean for a .mz 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.
