How it is measured
Tier 0. CAA records at the apex. Denominator: any.
Why it matters
Without CAA, any public CA may issue a certificate for the domain, so mis-issuance has no technical backstop. Cheap to publish, almost nobody does.
The base rate
Two independent populations. The global, domain-anchored figure is unbiased; the company-anchored figures are built by matching company names to domains and skew toward more digitally-mature firms. Both are published, so the gap is visible.
By company size band
Company-anchored cuts (national registries with a size proxy), split by size band. Right-hand figure is the share not meeting the control.
