Email security in Spain
How Spain protects its email, measured from public DNS across 1,461,432 domains, and which sectors move the national picture.
Average score across 1,461,432 domains
Active. 985,325 with live mail routing.
Inactive. 476,107 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. 20,430 of them already declare that they carry no mail. How we measure this
How these domains spread across score bands
Where Spain stands
Across the 1,461,432 domains we benchmark in Spain, the average email-security score is 19 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 26, while those with no mail routing score 5. Both matter, because a domain does not need working email to be forged in your name.
