Risk levelHigh

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

点点SEO is a Chinese-based small business specializing in comprehensive online marketing solutions including SEO optimization, website construction, brand marketing, short video marketing, and software development. The company positions itself as a professional full-network marketing solution provider with 9 years of industry experience and a strong client base. The website is well-structured, mobile-optimized, and content-rich, targeting primarily small and medium enterprises in China. Technically, the site uses a custom-built platform with common JavaScript libraries and proprietary SAAS intelligent website building systems. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled but lacks advanced security headers and privacy compliance documentation. The domain is newly registered in 2024, which conflicts with the claimed business history, suggesting a recent domain acquisition or rebranding. Contact is primarily via phone and QQ instant messaging, with no email or social media presence detected.

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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  3. 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 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';…

  4. 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 · found on this site
  • 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 company leverages a multi-city subdomain strategy to target regional markets across China, indicating a broad geographic marketing approach. Its competitive advantage lies in proprietary SAAS technology and extensive SEO resources. The business model focuses on service provision rather than product sales, with revenue streams likely from SEO packages, website construction, and marketing campaigns. The partnership ecosystem includes multiple friendly link domains, suggesting collaboration or affiliate relationships. Growth indicators include a large technical team and numerous long-term client cases. However, the lack of privacy policies and incident response information may impact trust among privacy-conscious clients.

Security posture

The website demonstrates basic security maturity with HTTPS and domain transfer protection but lacks DNSSEC and critical security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are present, and privacy compliance is weak due to missing policies. The use of an outdated jQuery version may expose the site to known vulnerabilities. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires improvements to meet best practices and regulatory compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve GDPR and privacy compliance.
  2. Enable DNSSEC and add essential security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to enhance domain and site security.
  3. Update JavaScript libraries to current secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  4. Establish and publicize incident response and vulnerability disclosure contacts to improve security transparency.
  5. Consider domain age and business history alignment in marketing materials to avoid trust discrepancies.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a custom-built CMS or platform with common JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 1.10.2, Slick Carousel, and WOW.js for animations. The site is mobile responsive and has good SEO meta tags but lacks structured data like JSON-LD or Open Graph tags. Performance is moderate with no explicit indicators of optimization or CDN usage. Accessibility features are basic, and no ARIA or semantic HTML enhancements were detected. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified beyond the registrar information. The multi-city subdomain strategy indicates a scalable infrastructure approach. Technical debt is present due to outdated libraries and missing security best practices.
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.
