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

The website deerz.one is a personal site operated by an individual known as ida deerz, focusing on creative outputs such as music, blog posts, and technical resources. The site serves a niche audience interested in music production, web development, and personal insights. The business model is primarily content sharing and community engagement without commercial sales directly on the site. The domain is relatively new, registered in April 2024, and uses privacy protection services, which aligns with the personal nature of the site. Technically, the site is built on a custom content management system called Deer Text Format, utilizing standard web technologies including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and PHP. Hosting is provided by DreamHost, and the site is served over HTTPS with a moderate performance profile. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic but functional. SEO practices are minimal but present. From a security perspective, the site benefits from HTTPS and domain transfer protection but lacks DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy. There are no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of privacy and cookie policies, as well as incident response information, indicates room for improvement in compliance and security posture. Overall, the site is safe, trustworthy, and well-maintained for a personal project, but it lacks formal privacy and security documentation. Strategic recommendations include implementing privacy and cookie policies, enabling DNSSEC, adding security headers, and providing incident response contacts to enhance trust and compliance.

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

9 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 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

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 website targets a niche community of music enthusiasts, web developers, and personal blog readers. It leverages a custom-built CMS to deliver unique content, including free sample packs and technical blog posts. The operator collaborates with other artists and maintains a presence on multiple social platforms, indicating a small but engaged ecosystem. The business model is non-commercial, focusing on content sharing and community building. Growth indicators include regular blog updates and active social media links. Partnerships with related creative sites and music platforms enhance the site's reach and credibility.

Security posture

The security maturity level is moderate. HTTPS is enforced, and domain transfer protection is active, which are positive indicators. However, the lack of DNSSEC and security headers reduces the overall security posture. No incident response or security policy information is provided, which could hinder response to potential security incidents. The site does not use tracking or advertising technologies, reducing privacy risks. Compliance with GDPR and other privacy regulations is not demonstrated due to missing policies. Overall, the site is secure for its purpose but would benefit from formalizing security and privacy practices.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to improve domain security and prevent DNS spoofing.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy to enhance GDPR compliance.
  3. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Add incident response contact information, such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  5. Conduct regular security audits of the custom CMS and server environment to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a bespoke static/dynamic site generator named Deer Text Format, built with PHP, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Hosting is on DreamHost with Ubuntu Server and Docker technologies mentioned in blog posts. The site loads moderately fast and is mobile responsive with a clean design. SEO is basic with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. No third-party analytics or tracking scripts are detected, enhancing privacy. The technical stack is modern but minimalistic, reflecting a personal project rather than a commercial enterprise.
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.
