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

The website futureofourpasts.com is a Japanese language affiliate marketing platform focused on facial and medical hair removal services in the Sendai region of Japan. It provides rankings, reviews, and detailed information about local salons and clinics, targeting consumers interested in beauty and skincare. The business model relies on affiliate links to service providers, with no direct sales or service offerings. Technically, the site is built with basic HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, hosted under a reputable registrar and DNS provider, but lacks advanced CMS or frameworks. Security posture is minimal with no DNSSEC or security headers detected, and no privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating compliance gaps. User tracking is moderate via Research Artisan Pro scripts. Overall, the site is functional and relevant but requires improvements in security, privacy compliance, and contact transparency to enhance trust and professionalism.

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

8 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 site occupies a niche local market segment providing curated information and affiliate marketing for hair removal services in Sendai. Its competitive advantage lies in localized content and affiliate partnerships with known salons. The business targets primarily Japanese-speaking female consumers interested in beauty treatments. Revenue streams are likely affiliate commissions. The site shows moderate content quality and branding consistency but lacks direct company information or certifications. Growth potential depends on expanding content, improving compliance, and enhancing user trust.

Security posture

Security maturity is low to moderate. The absence of DNSSEC, security headers, and privacy policies indicates gaps in best practices. No incident response or security contact information is provided. The site uses HTTPS (assumed from canonical link) but SSL configuration details are unknown. Tracking scripts are present but privacy compliance is poor. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. Overall, the site would benefit from implementing security headers, privacy policies, and incident response mechanisms to improve its security posture and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection.
  3. Enable DNSSEC for the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  4. Provide clear contact information including email and phone for business and security incident reporting.
  5. Conduct a security audit to identify and remediate any potential vulnerabilities and improve SSL/TLS configuration.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a simple technology stack with static HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. No CMS or advanced frameworks are detected. Hosting is via a reputable registrar and DNS provider with multiple name servers. Performance is moderate with basic mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is basic with canonical tags and meta viewport but lacks Open Graph or Twitter Card metadata. Tracking is implemented via Research Artisan Pro scripts. There is opportunity to modernize the tech stack, improve performance, and enhance SEO and accessibility compliance.
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.
