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

Fo.RU operates as a technology company providing an online website builder platform that enables users to create websites, landing pages, blogs, portals, and online stores with ease. The platform targets individuals and small to medium-sized businesses seeking quick and simple website creation solutions. The business model is primarily freemium with paid tariffs and additional services. The company maintains a moderate market position with a focus on usability and speed of site creation. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3, and uses analytics tools such as Google Analytics and Yandex Metrika. The platform appears to be custom-built with no common CMS detected. Performance and mobile optimization are good, though accessibility is basic. SEO practices are adequately implemented. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and has domain transfer protections in place. However, it lacks DNSSEC and important security headers, which are recommended to enhance security posture. Privacy compliance is partial; privacy and terms of service pages exist, but no cookie consent mechanism is implemented, which is a gap for GDPR compliance. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy with no critical security issues detected. Recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, adding security headers, and implementing cookie consent to improve privacy compliance and security posture.

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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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 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

Fo.RU's market positioning is that of a user-friendly website builder catering to non-technical users and small businesses. Its competitive advantage lies in ease of use, free hosting, free SSL certificates, and a variety of templates. Revenue streams likely include paid tariffs and premium features. The target customer segments are individuals, entrepreneurs, and small to medium enterprises. Growth indicators include continuous platform improvements and new module development. The company maintains an affiliate program and has social media presence on Facebook and VK. Strategic observations suggest a focus on expanding template offerings and improving user experience to capture more market share.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is moderate. The use of HTTPS and domain transfer protection are positive indicators. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security posture. There is no visible incident response or security policy information on the website. Data protection practices are basic, with privacy policy present but lacking cookie consent mechanisms. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not evident from the website content. Compliance gaps exist regarding GDPR cookie consent requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to protect against DNS spoofing and improve DNS security.
  2. Implement essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to harden the website against common attacks.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve trust and preparedness.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and analytics tools to minimize privacy risks and ensure compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a custom-built platform with modern front-end technologies and integrates analytics tools such as Google Analytics and Yandex Metrika. The site is mobile optimized and uses modern image formats like WebP for performance. However, no common CMS or frameworks like React or Angular were detected. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Performance is moderate with room for improvement in accessibility features. The site uses valid meta tags and SEO best practices. Technical risks include lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers which could expose the site to certain attack vectors.
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.
