Is .store safe? The state of .store domain security
.store is riskier than the internet average. Across 1,957,256 graded .store domains, 87.3% score an F — worse than the 78.3% global average — heavier on exposed domains than the web as a whole. 0.7% earn a B or better. Most .store 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 1,803,231 graded .store domains, 86.5% earn an F — well above the 73.8% internet-wide average. DMARC enforcement here stands at 16.4% — above the 11.8% census-wide rate.
How do .store domains score?
Aggregate grade distribution across all graded .store domains — we never publish an individual business's grade. As of 2026-08-16.
| Grade | Domains | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A+ | 38 | 0% |
| A | 692 | 0% |
| B | 12,176 | 0.6% |
| C | 89,869 | 4.6% |
| D | 146,627 | 7.5% |
| F | 1,707,854 | 87.3% |
Does .store 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 .store doesn't protect you, and a high-F-share ending doesn't doom you: a correctly configured .store domain earns an A while the crowd around it sits at F.

Frequently asked questions
Is .store safe?
On average, .store is riskier than the internet average: 87.3% of its 1,957,256 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 .store domains?
12.7% of .store domains score above an F and 0.7% 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 .store 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 .store too.
What does "grade F" mean for a .store 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.
