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

FSKY is a small technology collective founded in 2023, dedicated to hosting public online services and supporting open source development. Their market position is niche, focusing on privacy-conscious users and developers who value anonymity and decentralized communication. Key services include chat and VoIP platforms, collaborative coding, and private frontends for popular services like Reddit and Imgur, with strong integration into privacy networks such as Tor and Yggdrasil. The business model relies on community funding and voluntary donations, reflecting a grassroots approach rather than commercial scale operations. Technically, the website is built with standard HTML5 and CSS3, featuring a clean and consistent design optimized for mobile devices. The infrastructure leverages reputable registrars and DNS providers but lacks advanced security features such as DNSSEC and security headers. Performance is moderate with no detected analytics or advertising, aligning with the privacy-focused ethos. The absence of CMS or complex frameworks suggests a lightweight and maintainable platform. From a security perspective, the site benefits from HTTPS and domain transfer protections but misses critical enhancements like DNSSEC and published security policies. No forms or data collection mechanisms are present, reducing attack surface, but the lack of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps, especially under GDPR. The use of privacy-protected WHOIS registration is consistent with the business's privacy orientation and justified. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be improved with better header configurations and transparency. The overall risk is low given the nature of the services and limited data collection, but strategic improvements in privacy compliance and security best practices are recommended to enhance trust and resilience. The website is professional and trustworthy within its niche but should address policy disclosures and technical security enhancements to meet broader compliance standards.

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. 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

Business profile

FSKY operates as a small, community-driven tech collective focused on privacy and open source hosting services. Their competitive advantage lies in integrating privacy networks like Tor and Yggdrasil, appealing to users requiring anonymity and decentralized communication. The business model is donation-funded, indicating limited revenue streams but strong community support. Target customers include privacy advocates, open source developers, and users seeking ad-free, private alternatives to mainstream services. Growth indicators are modest given the recent domain registration and small team size. The partnership ecosystem includes related domains under the fsky.io subdomain and darknet addresses, reinforcing their privacy-centric positioning. Strategic observations suggest a focus on sustainability through community engagement and technical transparency.

Security posture

FSKY demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer protections in place. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options represents gaps that could expose users to certain risks. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response policies are published, limiting transparency and preparedness. Data protection practices are minimal due to the lack of forms and data collection, but privacy compliance is weak without privacy or cookie policies. The use of privacy-protected WHOIS aligns with the organization's privacy values but reduces public registrant transparency. Overall, the security culture appears privacy-focused but could benefit from formalized policies and technical hardening.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy to enhance GDPR compliance.
  3. Add security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy to strengthen web security.
  4. Develop and disclose an incident response plan and provide a dedicated security contact email (e.g., security@fsky.io).
  5. Regularly audit and update technical infrastructure to maintain performance and security, including SSL/TLS configurations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a simple, static HTML and CSS stack with SVG graphics for branding. No CMS or JavaScript frameworks were detected, indicating a lightweight and maintainable platform. Hosting and DNS are managed through reputable providers, but DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a technical risk. The site is mobile-optimized with good navigation and SEO basics but lacks advanced accessibility features. Performance is moderate, likely due to minimal external dependencies and no heavy scripts. Technical debt appears low, but modernization opportunities include adding security headers and formalizing privacy and security policies to align with best practices.
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.
