0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

The website www.98655.com operates as a free online Chinese dictionary and language reference platform, offering users the ability to search Chinese characters by pinyin, radicals, and stroke count. It also provides access to classical Chinese poetry and idioms, targeting learners and users interested in Chinese language resources. The site content is primarily educational and free to use, positioning itself as a niche resource in the education sector. Technically, the site uses basic HTML, CSS, and JavaScript without modern frameworks or CMS, resulting in moderate performance and basic mobile optimization. Security posture is weak due to lack of HTTPS, security headers, and privacy policies. No contact or business registration information is provided, and WHOIS data is unavailable, raising concerns about domain legitimacy. Overall, the site is functional but lacks modern security and compliance features.

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

9 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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';…

  3. 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

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

The site serves a small-scale educational niche focused on Chinese language learners. Its business model is free access supported by advertising from a third-party ad network. The external links indicate partnerships with similar educational and language resource sites. The absence of company registration or contact details limits business credibility. The site’s content quality is good for its purpose, but technical and security limitations constrain growth potential and trust. No certifications or compliance frameworks are evident. The partnership ecosystem is limited to related educational domains.

Security posture

The website lacks HTTPS, security headers, and privacy or cookie policies, indicating a low security maturity level. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided. The absence of registrant WHOIS data further reduces trust. The site does not expose sensitive data or show signs of vulnerabilities in the provided content, but the lack of basic security controls is a significant risk. Compliance with GDPR or other data protection regulations is not evident. Overall, the security posture is poor and requires urgent improvements to protect users and data.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate to secure user data and improve trust.
  2. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with data protection regulations.
  3. Publish clear contact information including security incident contacts to enhance transparency.
  4. Deploy security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Consider modernizing the technical stack and improving mobile optimization and accessibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using basic HTML, CSS, and JavaScript without any detected CMS or modern frameworks. It lacks performance optimization and advanced SEO features. Mobile responsiveness and accessibility are basic but functional. The hosting provider and infrastructure details are not disclosed. The site includes third-party advertising scripts from 19633.com, which may impact performance and privacy. There is no evidence of analytics or tracking services beyond form input collection. Technical debt is moderate due to outdated security practices and lack of modern web standards.
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.
