Risk levelHigh

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

Chickenheads.link is a niche website providing customizable profile pages for managing important links, primarily supporting the band Radioactive Chicken Heads. The site is powered by LinkStack, an open-source, privacy-focused link management platform. The business model centers on serving fans and users who want a centralized link management solution with a band affiliation. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies including Bootstrap 5, JavaScript libraries, and CSS frameworks, delivering a good user experience with mobile optimization and decent SEO. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and no exposed sensitive data, but lacks advanced security headers and explicit cookie consent mechanisms. Privacy compliance is basic with a privacy policy present but no cookie banner or GDPR explicit indicators. Overall, the site is trustworthy with no adult or questionable content, but could improve in security and privacy transparency.

  3. (c) Business continuity, backups and crisis management: Not visible from outside
  4. (d) Supply chain security: Not visible from outside

The NIS2 figure counts only evidence anyone can see from the internet. 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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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: RDP

      Port 3389 (RDP) is reachable from the internet. Remote Desktop exposed to the internet is the most common ransomware entry point.

      What to do: Block port 3389 at the firewall and reach RDP through a VPN or private network instead.

      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      The certificate expires in 3 days; after that browsers block the site.

      What to do: Renew now and check why automatic renewal has not run.

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.
  • Accessibility: Accessibility is a separate readout from security, so it is reported but not scored. 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 website targets a niche market of band fans and users needing link management services. It leverages the open-source LinkStack platform, indicating a cost-effective and privacy-conscious approach. The partnership with the Radioactive Chicken Heads band provides a unique branding advantage. The business appears small and focused, with no evidence of large-scale operations or subsidiaries. Revenue streams likely include user registrations and possibly donations or merchandise linked to the band. The partnership ecosystem includes the band’s official site and LinkStack. Growth indicators are limited but the site’s consistent branding and technical implementation suggest stable operations.

Security posture

The site demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and secure cookie handling for UI preferences. However, it lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could expose it to clickjacking or content injection risks. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are published, limiting transparency. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy but no cookie consent mechanism. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small niche site but could be improved to meet higher compliance and security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a clear cookie consent banner to comply with privacy regulations.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish a security policy and provide incident response contact information.
  4. Consider GDPR compliance enhancements including data subject rights and cookie management.
  5. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack with Bootstrap 5, JavaScript libraries (AOS, Flatpickr, FSLightbox), and custom CSS. It is powered by the open-source LinkStack platform, indicating a well-maintained backend. Performance is moderate with no obvious blocking scripts or heavy resources. Mobile optimization is good with responsive design elements. SEO is supported by proper meta tags including Open Graph and Twitter cards. Accessibility is basic but present. No CMS other than LinkStack is detected. Hosting provider is not explicitly identified. Technical risks include missing security headers and lack of explicit privacy controls.
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.
