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

Hellomouse Ltd. is a small international technology company specializing in networking, software development, and telecommunications security. The company operates an overlay network with multiple Points of Presence (PoPs) worldwide, targeting professionals and enthusiasts in networking and telecommunications. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image with clear references to their AS number and GitHub presence, indicating active engagement in the technology community. Technically, the website uses modern web technologies such as Bootstrap 5 and SVG graphics, providing a responsive and visually appealing user experience. Hosting appears to be managed via custom name servers, though the exact hosting provider is not identified. Performance and mobile optimization are good, but SEO and accessibility features are basic. No CMS or analytics tools are detected, indicating a lightweight and privacy-conscious approach. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with a good SSL configuration and domain registration protections like clientDeleteProhibited and clientTransferProhibited statuses. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and no security headers are present, which could be improved. The absence of privacy, cookie, and terms of service policies, as well as lack of incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, indicates gaps in compliance and transparency. Overall, the website is safe and trustworthy with no adult or questionable content. The domain registration data aligns well with the business claims, supporting legitimacy. Strategic improvements in privacy compliance, security headers, and contact transparency would enhance the site's security posture and user trust.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Hellomouse operates in a niche segment of the technology and telecommunications industry, focusing on overlay network services and security. Their business model appears centered on providing network infrastructure and software development expertise to a specialized audience. The presence of an AS number and GitHub repository suggests active network operations and open-source contributions, which can be competitive advantages. The company is relatively young, founded in 2018, and maintains a small size with an international team. The use of IRC for community engagement indicates a preference for open communication channels within technical communities. No partnerships or subsidiaries are publicly linked, suggesting independent operation. Growth indicators are limited from the website alone, but the technical focus and global PoPs imply a scalable infrastructure.

Security posture

The security maturity level of Hellomouse's website is moderate. HTTPS is properly implemented, and domain registration protections are in place, which are positive indicators. However, the lack of DNSSEC, security headers, and published security policies reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. The absence of incident response contacts and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms may hinder timely handling of security incidents. Compliance with GDPR or other privacy regulations is not demonstrated due to missing privacy and cookie policies. The security culture appears informal, relying on community channels like IRC rather than formalized security communication. Addressing these gaps would improve risk management and regulatory compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve transparency and GDPR compliance.
  4. Provide clear contact information including security incident response and vulnerability disclosure channels.
  5. Consider adding analytics with privacy-respecting configurations to better understand user engagement and improve the website.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Bootstrap 5.1.3 and uses SVG for scalable graphics, indicating a modern and responsive design approach. The site is lightweight with no detected CMS or heavy JavaScript frameworks, which benefits performance and security. Hosting is managed via custom name servers, but the hosting provider is not identified. The site loads moderately fast and is mobile optimized. SEO is basic with essential meta tags and Open Graph data but lacks advanced SEO features. Accessibility is basic, with no ARIA roles or landmarks detected. There is no evidence of technical debt or outdated libraries. Opportunities exist to enhance SEO, accessibility, and security headers to modern 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.
