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. 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  3. 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 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';…

  4. 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

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 platform operates as an information and advisory portal in the education sector, focusing on high school and college entrance exam data. Its business model revolves around content provision, user engagement through informational articles, and simulation tools for college application planning. The site leverages partnerships with authoritative educational bodies, as evidenced by its friendly links to the Ministry of Education and other official exam websites. Its market position is that of a niche leader in Chinese high school exam information, with a moderate-sized audience and steady content updates. Revenue streams likely include advertising and possibly premium advisory services, though no direct monetization details are visible.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and includes third-party scripts such as Baidu Analytics and Baidu Push for tracking and SEO purposes. However, it lacks visible security headers and explicit privacy or cookie policies, indicating gaps in compliance and security best practices. No direct contact emails or phone numbers are provided, limiting incident response readiness. The absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy, though official ICP and public security filings lend credibility. Overall, the security posture is moderate but would benefit from enhanced transparency, policy disclosures, and technical security improvements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS to strengthen security posture.
  3. Publish clear contact information including company emails and phone numbers for better communication and incident response.
  4. Investigate and resolve WHOIS registration data issues to enhance domain legitimacy and trust.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize security risks and improve privacy compliance.

  2. No privacy or cookie policies explicitly found, indicating compliance gaps.
  3. No direct contact emails or phone numbers found; only a contact page link.
  4. No security headers detected; potential improvement area.
  5. WHOIS data missing, raising domain registration legitimacy questions.
  6. Use of Baidu analytics and push scripts indicates tracking and SEO optimization efforts.
  7. Content is educational and safe for general audiences.
  8. No WAF or blocking detected; no access restrictions.
Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end framework (layui) combined with jQuery 2.1.4, and integrates Baidu analytics and push scripts for tracking and SEO. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and clear navigation. Performance is moderate, with external CDN usage for CSS and JS assets. No CMS is detected, suggesting a custom or lightweight platform. Accessibility features are basic, and SEO is well addressed through meta tags and structured navigation. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the content. Technical debt appears low, but security enhancements and privacy compliance need attention.
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.
