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

Evergreen Group, Inc. operates a domain brokerage and marketplace platform focused on helping clients buy and sell premium domain names. The website showcases domain listings such as eCon.com and provides contact channels including email, phone, and a broker contact form. The company targets domain investors and businesses seeking valuable domain assets, positioning itself as an established player in the domain marketplace industry since 1996. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern plugins and tracking tools like Google Analytics and LiveChat, hosted on AWS infrastructure. The site is mobile optimized and offers a good user experience with clear navigation and professional design. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and reCAPTCHA protections, though DNSSEC is not enabled and security headers are not evident. Privacy compliance is weak due to the absence of visible privacy and cookie policies or consent mechanisms. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional but could improve in privacy transparency and DNS security.

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

11 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: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  2. 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';…

  3. 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

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 · 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

Evergreen Group, Inc. leverages a domain brokerage business model, generating revenue through domain sales and brokerage commissions. The company has a long-standing market presence with a domain registered since 1996, indicating stability and experience. Its target customers include domain investors and businesses looking for premium domain names to enhance their brand presence. The company maintains a professional online presence with active social media channels and uses analytics and live chat tools to engage visitors. The lack of explicit privacy and security policies suggests an area for growth in compliance and customer trust. The business operates primarily in the technology and e-commerce sectors, focusing on digital asset transactions.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and Google reCAPTCHA implemented on contact forms to mitigate spam and abuse. However, the absence of DNSSEC leaves the domain vulnerable to DNS spoofing attacks. No security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS were detected, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. There is no published security policy or incident response information, limiting transparency. The site does not expose sensitive data in the HTML or scripts. Overall, the security posture is functional but could be strengthened by adopting additional DNS and HTTP security measures and publishing formal security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS integrity and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and configure security headers including Content Security Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details and implement a cookie consent mechanism.
  4. Develop and publish a security policy and incident response plan with clear contact channels for security issues.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party plugins and scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities and improve security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using WPBakery Page Builder and integrates several JavaScript libraries including jQuery and Google Analytics scripts. Hosting appears to be on AWS infrastructure as indicated by DNS servers. The site uses Google reCAPTCHA for form protection and LiveChat for customer engagement. Performance is moderate with standard optimization but could benefit from enhanced caching and CDN usage. Mobile optimization is good with responsive design. SEO is supported by meta tags and structured navigation. Accessibility is basic with no advanced ARIA or accessibility features detected. Technical debt is low but security enhancements and privacy compliance improvements are recommended to reduce risk.
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.
