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

葫芦手游网 is a Chinese-language mobile gaming and application download platform offering a wide range of mobile games, apps, news, guides, and rankings. The site targets mobile users interested in discovering and downloading popular and new mobile games and applications. It operates as a niche content aggregator and downloader with a focus on the Chinese market. Technically, the site uses common web technologies such as jQuery and Swiper.js, and integrates Baidu Analytics for user tracking. The website is mobile-optimized with a clear navigation structure and regularly updated content, reflecting moderate digital maturity. However, the absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy and transparency. Security posture is weak due to lack of HTTPS confirmation, missing security headers, and no visible privacy or cookie policies. Overall, the site is functional and content-rich but lacks critical security and compliance features.

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. 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 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';…

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

葫芦手游网 operates in the technology sector focusing on mobile gaming and app distribution. Its business model centers on providing free downloads and curated content to attract users. The platform's competitive advantage lies in its comprehensive game and app catalog, daily updates, and specialized content such as guides and rankings. The target audience is primarily Chinese-speaking mobile users interested in gaming and apps. The site does not display clear business registration or company information, which may impact trust. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries. The platform appears small in scale but consistent in branding and content delivery.

Security posture

The website's security maturity is low. There is no evidence of HTTPS enforcement or modern security headers, which exposes users to potential risks. The lack of privacy and cookie policies indicates non-compliance with data protection regulations such as GDPR. No incident response or security contact information is provided. The use of third-party analytics without clear privacy disclosures further reduces compliance. No vulnerabilities or malware were detected in the content, but the absence of security best practices is a concern. The domain's WHOIS data is missing, which is a significant trust and legitimacy issue.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate to secure user connections.
  2. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear consent mechanisms to improve compliance.
  3. Publish terms of service and security policies to enhance transparency and user trust.
  4. Introduce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Provide clear contact information for security incidents and data protection inquiries.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a standard web technology stack including jQuery 3.5.1 and Swiper.js for UI components. Baidu Analytics is integrated for user tracking. The site is mobile responsive and has a clear navigation structure. However, no CMS or hosting provider information is evident. Performance appears moderate with no major issues detected. Accessibility features are basic, and SEO is reasonably well implemented with meta tags and structured content. The site lacks modern security configurations and privacy compliance features, which are technical risks that could impact user trust and regulatory adherence.
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.
