Is .sv safe? The state of .sv domain security
.sv is safer than the internet average. Across 6,533 graded .sv domains, 57% score an F — cleaner than the 78.3% global average — better company than most of the web. 5.3% earn a B or better. Most .sv domains can still be impersonated in email, but the ending shifts the odds, not your own domain's grade. As of 2026-08-16.
How do .sv domains score?
Aggregate grade distribution across all graded .sv domains — we never publish an individual business's grade. As of 2026-08-16.
| Grade | Domains | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A+ | 4 | 0.1% |
| A | 25 | 0.4% |
| B | 318 | 4.9% |
| C | 872 | 13.3% |
| D | 1,593 | 24.4% |
| F | 3,721 | 57% |
Does .sv 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 .sv doesn't protect you, and a high-F-share ending doesn't doom you: a correctly configured .sv domain earns an A while the crowd around it sits at F.

Frequently asked questions
Is .sv safe?
On average, .sv is safer than the internet average: 57% of its 6,533 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 .sv domains?
43.0% of .sv domains score above an F and 5.3% 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 .sv 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 .sv too.
What does "grade F" mean for a .sv 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.
