First pass. This rating covers 3 of the methodology's 7 pillars, scored from evidence we already hold (treaty and adequacy registers, our own CERT list and collector, and passive checks of two government websites per country). It is a starting point, not a verdict: the remaining pillars, a wider government-domain sample and corrections from the countries themselves will move it edition by edition. Version v0.1 first pass, cut-off 2026-10-26.

Our cyber reasoning

The Cyber Risk Barometer rates countries on protection in practice, not on paper: each indicator is a public, checkable fact or something we measure ourselves. The seven pillars, their fixed weights and the A to E bands are set out in the methodology before any country is scored. This page shows every indicator we hold for Tajikistan, with the evidence behind it.

How the rating is built

Each pillar is scored 0 to 100 from its indicators. The rating is the weighted mean of the pillars scored so far, on the fixed weights published in the methodology. The 5 pillars not yet scored are left out and the weights renormalised, so this is a preview, 2 of 7 pillars.

Is there a national CERT, and is it visibly working? Three of the six indicators are measured today from our own list and collector; the other three are still to be measured. Our daily collector reads every working feed, so "publishing" is observed, not declared.

Context from the Bloch Index

Three of the Bloch Index's seven pillars, reused as it publishes them: the economy, institutions and education that shape a country's cyber capacity. Every indicator is ranked against every other country the Bloch Index scores (191) and turned into a percentile score from 0 to 100; a pillar is the average of its indicators. Snapshot of 2026-10-05; these numbers do not enter the cyber rating.

Economy

No 10-year government bond yield is reported for this country in the OECD series, so the Economy pillar rests on World Bank fundamentals alone.

Governance

Memberships

Bloc and treaty memberships exactly as the Bloch Index records them (list updated 2026-08-30), so the two sites group countries the same way. The league table filters by them and the super league compares the EU, China and the United States.

Blocs and treaties

No bloc or treaty memberships are recorded for Tajikistan in the Bloch Index list.

Data sources

  • National CERT: the Cyber Risk Barometer's list of national CERTs and cyber agencies (FIRST teams directory, plus teams added by hand), and our daily feed collector, which records whether each team's feed is working. Master copy: the "CERTs & sources" tab of our data workbook. No contact data is collected.
  • Cyber pillars: methodology v0.1 (seven pillars, fixed weights, A to E bands), our own design; evidence from treaty offices, official adequacy lists, statutes, regulators and our own passive checks. Not derived from any other country cyber ranking.
  • Economy, Governance and Education: Bloch Index pillar scores and indicators (World Bank World Development Indicators and Worldwide Governance Indicators; OECD Main Economic Indicators for bond yields), snapshot 2026-10-05.
