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

The website www.imsvancouver2018.com is a Japanese language affiliate marketing site focused on hair removal and medical hair removal salons in Nagasaki, Japan. It provides detailed content about hair removal benefits, local salon rankings, and related beauty topics, targeting individuals interested in these services. The business model relies on affiliate links directing users to third-party hair removal service providers. Technically, the site uses basic HTML, CSS, and JavaScript with Shift_JIS encoding, and includes tracking scripts from Research Artisan Pro. The site is accessible without WAF or blocking mechanisms, but lacks modern security headers and privacy policies. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain raises concerns about domain legitimacy and trustworthiness. Overall, the site offers relevant content but has significant gaps in security, privacy compliance, and business transparency.

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. 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 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

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 site occupies a niche local market segment providing affiliate marketing for hair removal services in Nagasaki. It leverages content marketing with affiliate links to monetize traffic. The lack of clear company information, contact details, and privacy policies limits its credibility. The site appears small scale with no evident parent company or subsidiaries. External links indicate partnerships with affiliate networks. Growth potential depends on improving trust signals and compliance. The business model is typical for affiliate marketing but would benefit from enhanced transparency and security.

Security posture

Security posture is weak due to missing WHOIS data, lack of HTTPS confirmation, absence of security headers, and no privacy or cookie policies. Tracking scripts are present but privacy compliance is poor. No incident response or security contact information is provided. The site does not demonstrate adherence to recognized security frameworks or certifications. These gaps expose the site to trust and compliance risks, especially under GDPR or similar regulations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate to secure user connections.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve GDPR compliance.
  3. Add clear contact information including company email and phone number for transparency.
  4. Configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  5. Obtain and display domain registration information or use a verified domain to improve legitimacy.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses basic web technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) with Shift_JIS charset, which may limit SEO and accessibility. The site includes affiliate marketing scripts and tracking pixels from Research Artisan Pro. No CMS or advanced frameworks detected. Performance appears moderate but could be improved with modern optimization techniques. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic. The lack of HTTPS and security headers is a technical risk. The site structure is simple but functional for its purpose.
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.
