75/100

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

Claus Web SRL is a Romanian technology company specializing in domain registration and web hosting services, with over 20 years of market presence and ISO/IEC 27001 certification. The company offers a broad portfolio of services including domain registration for multiple TLDs, shared and business web hosting, reseller hosting, cloud VPS, dedicated servers, and SSL certificates. Their target audience includes businesses and individuals primarily in Romania and Europe. The website demonstrates a professional and consistent brand presence with transparent pricing and multiple customer support channels. Technically, the site uses a modern tech stack including nginx, PHP, Bootstrap, jQuery, and various JavaScript libraries for UI and analytics. However, the SSL certificate is currently invalid or missing, which poses a significant security risk. The company employs cookie consent mechanisms and complies with GDPR, but lacks DNSSEC and advanced HTTP security headers. Overall, Claus Web maintains a solid market position with room for security improvements.

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Claus Web operates as an essential entity in the Romanian web hosting and domain registration sector, leveraging partnerships with ROTLD and EURID for accredited domain services. Their business model is service-oriented, focusing on recurring revenue from hosting and domain renewals, supplemented by reseller and cloud offerings. The company targets SMEs and individual customers seeking reliable hosting solutions. Their competitive advantage includes long-standing market experience, ISO 27001 certification, and a comprehensive service catalog. The presence of multiple payment options and legal compliance links indicates a mature operational framework. The partnership ecosystem includes domain registries and consumer protection authorities, enhancing trust and regulatory adherence.

Security posture

The security posture of Claus Web is moderate with notable strengths such as ISO/IEC 27001 certification and GDPR compliance. The website implements cookie consent and uses reputable analytics and advertising tools. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of TLS protocol support critically undermine secure communications. Missing DNSSEC and CAA records reduce DNS security, and the lack of HSTS and other security headers limits protection against common web attacks. No explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are found, which may impact rapid mitigation of security incidents. Overall, while the company demonstrates awareness of security best practices, technical implementation gaps present risks that should be addressed promptly.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and maintain a valid SSL certificate with support for modern TLS versions to secure user data and improve trust.
  2. Enable HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload to enforce HTTPS usage.
  3. Implement DNSSEC and CAA DNS records to enhance domain name system security and certificate issuance control.
  4. Add additional security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  5. Develop and publish a formal vulnerability disclosure and incident response policy to improve security transparency and readiness.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on nginx with PHP backend and uses a combination of Bootstrap, jQuery, Select2, Swiper, and Moment.js for frontend functionality. Analytics and marketing integrations include Google Analytics, Google Ads, Google Tag Manager, and Facebook Meta Pixel. DNS records indicate multiple MX servers and several authoritative nameservers, but DNSSEC is not enabled. SSL configuration is currently invalid with no TLS protocols enabled, representing a critical technical debt. Performance metrics are not provided but inferred as moderate based on resource usage and technology. Mobile optimization is good with responsive design elements. SEO is supported by meta tags and structured navigation. Hosting appears to be provided by Romania Web Hosting or related providers based on NS records. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern but requires urgent security upgrades.
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.
