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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 384-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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 business operates as a regional interconnection hub in Jordan, leveraging DE-CIX's global ecosystem to provide peering and interconnection services. Its target customers include ISPs, network operators, and content providers seeking connectivity in the Middle East. The business model is based on neutral interconnection services, with key offerings such as GlobePEER, Blackholing, and VirtualPNI. The website indicates a small-sized operation with a focus on telecommunications. The lack of direct contact emails or phone numbers suggests a controlled communication channel via contact forms. The partnership with DE-CIX enhances market credibility and positions AqabaIX as a new but strategically important player in regional internet infrastructure.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and implements a GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanism, indicating a baseline of security and privacy awareness. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and lack of published security policies or incident response contacts limit the overall security maturity. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of Google Tag Manager implies some level of user tracking, but privacy compliance is maintained through consent mechanisms. The missing WHOIS data raises concerns about domain legitimacy, which could impact trust if not resolved. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved with additional transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish explicit security headers (CSP, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Provide a dedicated security policy page and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Verify and publish domain registration details to resolve WHOIS inconsistencies and enhance legitimacy.
  4. Include direct company contact emails and phone numbers to facilitate communication and support.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure compliance with privacy regulations and minimize user tracking.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Neos CMS platform using the Flow PHP framework, indicating a modern and flexible technical stack. It uses Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking, which is a common industry practice. The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate, with preloading of fonts and asynchronous loading of scripts. No critical technical issues or broken elements were detected. However, the absence of some security headers and lack of explicit hosting provider information suggest areas for technical improvement. Overall, the infrastructure supports the business needs effectively but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and transparency.
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.
