Security score

80/100

Risk levelLow

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

Hostinger is a global web hosting and domain registration provider offering a broad range of services including managed WordPress hosting, WooCommerce hosting, cloud hosting, VPS, and domain services. The website is professionally designed, multilingual, and targets individuals and businesses seeking reliable web hosting solutions. The technical infrastructure leverages modern JavaScript frameworks such as Nuxt.js, integrates analytics tools like Amplitude and Google Tag Manager, and employs Cloudflare Turnstile for bot protection, indicating a mature digital presence. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and bot mitigation in place, though explicit security headers and published policies are lacking. The absence of WHOIS data reduces transparency and trust slightly, but the overall business credibility remains good based on website professionalism and service offerings. Strategic improvements in privacy compliance and security disclosures would enhance trust and compliance.

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. 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 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 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Cloudflare

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

Hostinger operates in the competitive web hosting market, positioning itself as a comprehensive provider with a wide service portfolio. Its business model focuses on subscription-based hosting services and domain registrations, targeting a global audience with localized content. The company leverages partnerships with major analytics and advertising platforms to optimize marketing and user engagement. The lack of visible contact and compliance information suggests room for improvement in customer trust and regulatory adherence. The brand maintains consistent messaging and design, supporting a strong market presence.

Security posture

Hostinger demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS and Cloudflare Turnstile captcha integration to prevent automated abuse. However, the website lacks explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security, which are recommended best practices. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is published, limiting transparency for security researchers and customers. Privacy and cookie policies are not evident, indicating potential compliance gaps with GDPR and other privacy regulations. Overall, the security maturity is moderate to high but could benefit from enhanced transparency and policy publication.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies prominently accessible from the homepage.
  2. Implement and expose security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Provide clear contact information for security incidents and general inquiries.
  4. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance SEO metadata and accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.

  3. No contact emails or phone numbers explicitly found in the HTML content.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including Nuxt.js, a Vue.js framework, and integrates multiple third-party analytics and advertising scripts such as Amplitude, Google Tag Manager, and Bing Ads. The site is optimized for mobile devices and demonstrates fast loading times. The use of Cloudflare Turnstile indicates proactive bot mitigation. However, the absence of some security headers and privacy compliance artifacts suggests technical debt in security and regulatory adherence. The infrastructure appears robust but would benefit from improved transparency and policy integration.
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.
