Guess the Song is a specialized online music recognition service that allows users to identify songs by uploading audio clips, recording nearby music, or humming melodies. The service is free to use without requiring sign-in or payment, targeting a broad audience of music enthusiasts seeking quick and easy song identification. The website is well-structured with clear navigation, comprehensive FAQs, and helpful guides, positioning itself as a user-friendly and accessible tool in the music technology niche. Technically, the site leverages modern web technologies including React and Next.js, ensuring fast performance, mobile responsiveness, and good SEO practices. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and standard security headers present, although there is room for improvement in publishing explicit security policies and incident response contacts. Privacy compliance is adequate with a privacy policy present, but the absence of a cookie consent mechanism is a minor gap. Overall, the site demonstrates a professional and trustworthy presence with a focus on user privacy and ease of use.

The NIS2 figure counts only evidence anyone can see from the internet. 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

2 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.

    • High

      No SPF record found

      guessthesong.art publishes no SPF record, so receiving servers cannot tell which servers may send mail as this domain.

      What to do: Publish one TXT record listing your mail providers, for example "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourprovider.com -all". A domain that sends no mail should publish "v=spf1 -all".

    • High

      No DMARC record found

      There is no DMARC record at _dmarc.guessthesong.art, so receivers have no instruction for mail that fails SPF and DKIM.

      What to do: Publish a TXT record at _dmarc.guessthesong.art, starting with "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@guessthesong.art" and moving to p=quarantine or p=reject once reports look clean.

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.
  • Accessibility: Accessibility is a separate readout from security, so it is reported but not scored. 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.

Breach exposure

Leaked credentials and lookalike domains from OffSeq Breach. The counts are free; the detailed lists are paid add-ons.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention guessthesong.art, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for guessthesong.art right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The business operates in the technology sector, specifically in music recognition services. Its free-to-use model with usage limits suggests a focus on user acquisition and engagement rather than direct monetization. The lack of sign-in or payment requirements lowers barriers to entry, appealing to casual users and music fans. The service's key competitive advantage lies in offering multiple input methods (upload, record, hum) for song identification. The website's clear branding and consistent messaging support its market positioning as a reliable and accessible music finder. No direct partnerships or subsidiaries are evident, indicating a lean operational structure. The presence of a help center and detailed FAQs reflects a customer-centric approach. Growth potential may depend on expanding features or integrating with other music platforms.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers implemented, reducing common web vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The site requests microphone permissions only when necessary, respecting user privacy. However, the absence of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency for security researchers and users. There is no evidence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file, which could enhance trust and facilitate responsible reporting. Privacy compliance is supported by a privacy policy, but the lack of a cookie consent mechanism may pose regulatory risks in some jurisdictions. Overall, the security posture is strong but could be improved with formalized policies and disclosure channels.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a visible cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy outlining the site's security practices and frameworks.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact information, such as a security@ or abuse@ email address.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program and consider adding a security.txt file.
  5. Enhance contact information availability by adding verified company emails or phone numbers.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including React and Next.js, enabling server-side rendering and fast client-side interactions. The use of SVG graphics and asynchronous script loading contributes to efficient performance. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA labels. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags, Open Graph data, and JSON-LD structured data for FAQs and WebApplication schema. No CMS or third-party hosting provider was explicitly identified. The absence of advertising and tracking scripts suggests a privacy-conscious approach. Technical risks are minimal, with no detected outdated libraries or performance bottlenecks. Opportunities exist to further modernize by integrating advanced analytics and enhancing privacy compliance mechanisms.
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.
