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

AbellaList.com operates as an adult content directory specializing in curating and categorizing a wide range of pornographic websites, including free and premium sites, live cams, AI-generated content, and niche categories such as hentai and mature content. The site leverages affiliate marketing by linking to numerous third-party adult entertainment providers, generating revenue through referrals and advertising. The website has been active since 2015, indicating a stable presence in the adult entertainment niche. Technically, the site employs standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and jQuery, with integration of Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for tracking and marketing purposes. The site is hosted under a domain registered with NameCheap, Inc., and uses HTTPS to secure user connections. Mobile optimization and SEO practices are adequate, though accessibility features are basic. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and has domain transfer protections in place. However, it lacks DNSSEC and does not implement common security headers, which could improve its security posture. There is no visible privacy or cookie policy, nor any incident response or security contact information, which are significant compliance gaps, especially under GDPR and similar regulations. Overall, the site presents moderate business credibility and technical maturity but falls short in privacy compliance and advanced security practices. Strategic improvements in privacy disclosures, security headers, and contact transparency would enhance trust and compliance.

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

10 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

AbellaList.com occupies a niche market as an adult content aggregator and affiliate marketing platform. Its competitive advantage lies in the breadth and categorization of adult sites, including emerging categories like AI porn and NSFW AI chatbots. The business model is primarily referral-based, monetizing traffic through affiliate links to premium and free adult content providers. The target audience is adult consumers seeking curated and categorized pornographic content. The site shows growth indicators through frequent updates and inclusion of trending categories. Partnerships with major adult networks and cam sites strengthen its ecosystem. However, the lack of direct company information and contact details limits transparency and may affect user trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer protection. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options indicates room for improvement. No forms or inputs are present on the main page, reducing attack surface, but the lack of privacy and cookie policies suggests non-compliance with data protection regulations. No incident response or abuse contact information is provided, which is a gap in security governance. Overall, the site is moderately secure but should enhance its security framework and compliance posture to reduce risk and improve user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  2. Enable DNSSEC for the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  3. Add standard security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to improve protection against common web attacks.
  4. Provide clear contact information including security incident response and abuse contacts to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Regularly audit third-party affiliate links and advertising partners to ensure compliance with ethical and legal standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a traditional web stack with HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, including jQuery 1.11.3, which is an older version and may have known vulnerabilities. Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are used for tracking and marketing analytics. The site is hosted on a domain registered with NameCheap, Inc., with HTTPS enabled, ensuring encrypted communication. Performance is moderate with no explicit indicators of optimization or CDN usage. Mobile responsiveness is good, but accessibility features are minimal. The site lacks a CMS indication, suggesting a custom or static site architecture. Technical debt is moderate due to older JavaScript libraries and missing security headers. Modernization opportunities include updating libraries, enhancing security headers, and improving privacy compliance.
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.
