28/100

Active. 48,604 with live mail routing.

3/100

Inactive. 15,660 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. 96 of them already declare that they carry no mail. How we measure this

Where Saudi Arabia stands

Across the 64,264 domains we benchmark in Saudi Arabia, the average email-security score is 22 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 28, while those with no mail routing score 3. Both matter, because a domain does not need working email to be forged in your name.
