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. 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 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

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

Business profile

Hosting.kr is positioned as a major player in South Korea's domain and hosting market, leveraging its long-standing presence since 2007 and certifications from KISA. Its business model focuses on providing end-to-end domain and hosting services, appealing primarily to corporate and institutional clients. The company benefits from partnerships with global platforms like AWS and uses modern web technologies to maintain competitive performance and user experience. Revenue streams likely include domain sales, hosting subscriptions, SSL certificates, and value-added services such as managed DNS and office solutions. The absence of privacy protection in WHOIS data aligns with its transparent business approach. The company’s ecosystem is supported by a strong brand and customer trust, with potential for expansion in global markets.

Security posture

Hosting.kr exhibits a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS, strong domain status flags preventing unauthorized transfers or deletions, and use of reputable DNS providers (AWS). Security headers are implemented, and no obvious vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the website content. However, DNSSEC is unsigned, representing a potential area for improvement to protect against DNS spoofing. The lack of publicly available security policy or incident response information suggests room for enhanced transparency and preparedness. Privacy compliance is well addressed with GDPR-aligned policies and cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the site is secure for its business purpose but could benefit from formalized security documentation and DNSSEC deployment.

Recommendations

  1. Implement DNSSEC signing to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response plan to improve transparency and customer trust.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and analytics tools to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance visibility of data protection officer contact details to comply with privacy regulations fully.
  5. Continue investing in mobile optimization and accessibility to maintain excellent user experience across devices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React/Next.js framework with Material-UI components, ensuring responsive design and good accessibility. It leverages AWS DNS infrastructure, indicating reliable hosting and DNS resolution. Google Analytics and Tag Manager are used for analytics and marketing, integrated via asynchronous scripts to optimize performance. The site loads quickly and is mobile-optimized, with proper meta tags for SEO. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom-built platform. The technical stack is current and well-maintained, with opportunities to improve DNS security and formalize security documentation.
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.
