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

Interferenza s.r.l. is a small, established Italian web hosting provider with nearly three decades of experience offering services including shared hosting, VPS, dedicated servers, domain registration, and e-commerce hosting solutions. The company targets businesses and individuals seeking professional yet affordable hosting services. Their market position is supported by customer testimonials and partnerships with recognized technology brands such as Dell, MySQL, Apache, and Fedora. Technically, the website runs on an Apache server with PHP and uses legacy technologies like Flash for some interactive content. However, the site lacks modern performance optimizations and mobile responsiveness is basic. Security posture is weak due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support, no HSTS, and missing DNS security features. Privacy compliance is partially addressed with cookie and privacy policies, but GDPR compliance indicators are minimal. Overall, the site demonstrates moderate business credibility but requires significant improvements in security and technical modernization to enhance trust and user experience.

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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  2. 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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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 · found on this site
  • 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 company operates in the technology sector focusing on web hosting and domain services. Its business model revolves around providing a range of hosting solutions from entry-level shared hosting to dedicated servers, targeting small to medium businesses and individual customers. The presence of partner logos and testimonials suggests a stable customer base and a network of technology partnerships. The company appears to maintain its own infrastructure, as indicated by the IP address and DNS records. Growth indicators include a large number of hits per month and a substantial number of hosted domains. However, the lack of visible direct contact information such as emails or phone numbers on the website may limit customer engagement. The company could benefit from enhancing its digital marketing and analytics capabilities.

Security posture

The website's security posture is currently weak. The absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support is a critical vulnerability that exposes users to data interception risks. The lack of HSTS, OCSP stapling, DNSSEC, and CAA records further weakens the security framework. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which limits transparency and readiness for security events. While SPF records are correctly configured to reduce email spoofing risks, the overall security best practices are not fully implemented. The use of outdated technologies such as Flash may introduce additional security risks. Immediate remediation of SSL/TLS configuration and implementation of modern security headers and policies are recommended to improve the security posture.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Implement HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload options.
  3. Configure DNSSEC and CAA records to enhance DNS security and certificate issuance control.
  4. Publish a security.txt file with incident response contact details to improve transparency.
  5. Replace legacy Flash components with modern, secure web technologies to improve compatibility and security.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on an Apache server with PHP and uses JavaScript libraries such as MooTools. Some interactive elements rely on Flash (Swiff), which is deprecated and unsupported by most modern browsers, posing compatibility and security risks. The site lacks modern performance optimizations, as indicated by zero reported load time and resource counts, suggesting incomplete performance data or slow loading. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic, with no evident responsive design features. SEO is minimally addressed with basic meta tags but no advanced structured data or Open Graph tags detected. The hosting infrastructure appears self-managed with a dedicated IP address and Cloudflare DNS services, but no CDN or advanced security services are evident. Overall, the technical stack is functional but outdated and in need of modernization to meet current web standards and user expectations.
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.
