NIS2 Art. 21(2)

  1. (a) Risk analysis and security policies: Not visible from outside
  2. (b) Incident handling: One indicator
  3. (c) Business continuity, backups and crisis management: Not visible from outside
  4. (d) Supply chain security: Not visible from outside

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

网易作为中国互联网巨头，拥有多元化的业务线和丰富的产品生态，涵盖内容分发、在线教育、电子商务和游戏等。其市场优势在于品牌影响力和广泛的用户基础。通过旗下多个子域和服务，网易构建了完整的数字内容和服务生态。财报公开透明，具备良好的合规资质和政府许可。未来增长潜力依赖于持续创新和用户粘性提升。合作伙伴和子公司域名明确，显示出稳健的业务架构和生态布局。

Security posture

当前安全成熟度中等，网站使用有效的SSL证书但未启用TLS 1.2及以上协议，缺少HSTS和其他安全头部配置。DNSSEC未启用，存在一定的DNS安全风险。无发现公开的安全政策、事件响应或漏洞披露机制，缺乏透明的安全沟通渠道。隐私政策存在但GDPR合规性不明确，Cookie政策缺失。建议加强安全配置，完善隐私合规和安全事件响应流程，以降低潜在风险并提升用户信任。

Recommendations

  1. 启用TLS 1.2及以上协议，弃用过时协议
  2. 配置HSTS头部，包含子域并申请预加载
  3. 启用DNSSEC以提升域名解析安全
  4. 完善并公开Cookie政策及用户同意机制
  5. 建立并公开漏洞披露和安全事件响应流程

Notes

网易163.com采用阿里云CDN和Tengine服务器，前端使用jQuery及自研广告和统计脚本，技术栈较为传统但稳定。网站响应速度快，移动端重定向到专用移动站点，具备良好移动体验。缺少现代前端框架和CMS信息，可能存在技术债务。广告和统计集成较多，需关注性能和隐私影响。整体技术架构适合大规模内容分发，但安全和隐私技术需进一步现代化升级。
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
