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

bloat.cat is a niche technology website operated by 1337 Services LLC, offering a wide range of free, privacy-friendly public service frontends and tools. The site targets privacy-conscious users seeking alternatives to mainstream services, providing multiple instances of various frontends and utilities such as search engines, note-taking apps, and file sharing. The website is relatively new, founded in late 2023, and hosted on Njalla, a privacy-focused hosting provider, aligning with its privacy-centric mission. Technically, the website is a static HTML/CSS site with multiple subdomains hosting different services. The site demonstrates basic mobile optimization and accessibility but lacks advanced frameworks or CMS. Performance is moderate, and SEO is basic with standard meta tags. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, indicating a minimal user tracking approach. From a security perspective, the domain uses HTTPS and has domain status flags to prevent unauthorized transfers and updates, but lacks DNSSEC and visible security headers. No privacy policy, cookie policy, or terms of service are present, which limits privacy compliance. No contact or incident response information is provided, reducing transparency. The WHOIS data is consistent and transparent, enhancing legitimacy. Overall, bloat.cat presents a trustworthy, privacy-focused service platform with room for improvement in security best practices and privacy compliance. Strategic enhancements in policy disclosures, security headers, and DNS security would strengthen its posture and user trust.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

    • 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

  2. 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 256-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

bloat.cat operates in the technology sector, focusing on privacy-friendly web services. Its business model centers on providing free public frontends and tools that respect user privacy, targeting privacy-conscious internet users. The company, 1337 Services LLC, is small and recently founded, positioning itself as a niche player in the privacy service market. The extensive list of service frontends indicates a broad service ecosystem, potentially attracting a dedicated user base valuing privacy. The hosting choice (Njalla) and domain registration details support the privacy-centric brand image. However, the lack of formal policies and contact information may limit broader market trust and adoption. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries. The open source link to the Git repository suggests transparency and community engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and domain status protections in place. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security represents gaps that could be exploited. The lack of privacy and cookie policies, as well as incident response information, indicates limited compliance with GDPR and other data protection regulations. No analytics or tracking scripts reduce privacy risks but also limit user behavior insights. The WHOIS data is transparent and consistent, supporting legitimacy. Overall, the security maturity is basic with clear areas for improvement to meet higher compliance and security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  4. Provide clear contact information and establish an incident response contact channel.
  5. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and security culture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built as a static HTML/CSS site with multiple subdomains hosting various privacy-friendly services. It uses basic meta tags for SEO and is hosted on Njalla, a privacy-focused provider. The site lacks modern JavaScript frameworks or CMS platforms, indicating low technical complexity but also limited dynamic functionality. Performance is moderate with basic mobile optimization and accessibility. No analytics or tracking technologies are present, aligning with privacy goals but limiting user insights. The absence of DNSSEC and security headers indicates technical debt in security practices. Overall, the technical infrastructure is simple and functional but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
