Cloudflare's Most Abused Top-Level Domains (TLD) for 2025


Cloudflare’s report on the most abused top-level domains (TLDs) in 2025 is that it highlights which domain extensions are disproportionately used for malicious activity (like phishing, spam, and malware). This impacts trust in those TLDs, increases cybersecurity risks for users, and pressures registries and regulators to tighten controls.

Distrust in Certain Domains When a TLD (e.g., .xyz, .top, .info) is repeatedly flagged for abuse, users become wary of clicking links or engaging with websites under that extension. This damages the reputation of legitimate businesses using those domains.
