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

The website www.bazhuayu.com presents itself as a provider of web data scraping software, branded as 八爪鱼采集器 (Octoparse). It offers a visual, no-code web scraping tool with extensive templates and claims leadership in the big data scraping industry for five consecutive years. The site is primarily in Chinese and targets users interested in data extraction and web crawling solutions. Technically, the site is built using modern web technologies including React and Next.js, with UI components from Ant Design and interactive elements powered by Swiper. It integrates Baidu analytics and marketing scripts, indicating a focus on Chinese market analytics and advertising. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS (implied by script sources), but no explicit security headers were detected in the provided data. There is no visible privacy policy, cookie consent mechanism, or terms of service, which are critical for compliance with data protection regulations such as GDPR. The WHOIS data is missing or unavailable, raising concerns about domain legitimacy and ownership transparency. No contact emails or phone numbers are explicitly provided, limiting direct communication channels. Overall, the website is functional and professionally designed with good content quality and user experience. However, the lack of privacy and security disclosures, missing WHOIS data, and absence of contact information reduce trustworthiness and compliance posture. Strategic improvements in transparency, security headers, and compliance documentation are recommended to enhance credibility and reduce risk.

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

5 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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

Bazhuayu operates in the technology sector, specifically focusing on web scraping and big data extraction tools. Its business model revolves around providing software-as-a-service solutions that enable users to collect web data without coding. The company targets data analysts, researchers, and enterprises requiring automated data collection. The presence of multiple localized partner domains (octoparse.com and variants) suggests a partnership or brand affiliation, expanding its market reach internationally. The company appears to have a medium-sized operation with a focus on the Chinese market. Revenue streams likely include software subscriptions and enterprise licensing. The lack of explicit business registration details and contact information limits deeper insights into corporate structure and governance.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS usage and integration of standard analytics scripts. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options is a gap that could expose the site to clickjacking, MIME sniffing, and other attacks. No evidence of vulnerability disclosure programs or incident response contacts was found, indicating limited preparedness for security incidents. The missing WHOIS data and lack of privacy and cookie policies further weaken the compliance and trust framework. No exposed sensitive data or known vulnerabilities were detected in the provided content. Overall, the site requires enhancements in security best practices and transparency to improve its security maturity.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Publish contact information including support emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility and user trust.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Verify and update WHOIS registration details to ensure domain legitimacy and transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React and Next.js framework, leveraging Ant Design for UI components and Swiper for interactive sliders. It uses Baidu analytics and marketing scripts, indicating integration with Chinese digital marketing ecosystems. The site appears mobile-optimized with responsive design and good navigation clarity. Performance is moderate, with multiple CSS and JavaScript bundles loaded asynchronously. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or framework-based build. Hosting provider details are not available from the provided data. The technical stack is contemporary but could benefit from enhanced accessibility features and performance optimizations.
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.
