Active. 8,944 with live mail routing.

Inactive. 2,720 with no mail routing found.

An inactive domain is not receiving email, yet it stays registered and can still be forged in your name. Securing it costs nothing and closes that door. 143 of them already declare that they carry no mail. How we measure this

Where Egypt stands

Across the 11,664 domains we benchmark in Egypt, the average email-security score is 24 out of 100, a little above the global average of 13. That leaves the typical domain here open to being impersonated.

The headline covers every registered domain. Domains that carry live mail score 29, while those with no mail routing score 6. Both matter, because a domain does not need working email to be forged in your name.
