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

ایران وب هاست is a Persian-language web hosting and domain registration provider established since at least 2014, serving a broad range of customers from small businesses to large organizations in Iran. The company offers shared hosting, VPS, dedicated servers, SSL certificates, and domain services, positioning itself as a trusted hosting provider with over 14,000 websites hosted. The website is professionally designed using WordPress with the Enfold theme, optimized for SEO and mobile devices, and includes multiple trust seals such as eNamad and Samandehi. Technical infrastructure includes modern web technologies and cloud-based servers both inside and outside Iran. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced and secure forms, but lacks some security headers and explicit privacy/cookie consent mechanisms. WHOIS data is missing or unavailable, which reduces domain trustworthiness despite the active business presence. Overall, the website is functional, professional, and trustworthy for its target market, but would benefit from improved transparency in domain registration and enhanced privacy 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

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 company operates in the Technology sector focusing on web hosting and domain registration services. It targets Iranian businesses and organizations, offering a variety of hosting plans including Linux, Windows, WordPress, and download hosting. The business model includes direct sales and reseller partnerships. The presence of multiple certifications and a large customer base indicates a strong market position. The company leverages partnerships with certification authorities and uses Google Analytics for marketing insights. Growth indicators include a broad service portfolio and active customer support channels. Strategic observations suggest opportunities to improve compliance and security transparency to strengthen market trust.

Security posture

The security maturity level is moderate to good. HTTPS is properly configured, and forms use secure POST methods. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are published, limiting transparency. Privacy compliance is basic with no explicit cookie consent banners or GDPR indicators. The use of third-party scripts like Google Analytics introduces moderate tracking. Overall, the security posture supports business operations but requires enhancements in headers, privacy, and incident response readiness to meet higher standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Add explicit cookie consent banners and privacy policy updates to improve GDPR and privacy compliance.
  3. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to enhance transparency and trust.
  4. Provide clear incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress using the Enfold theme, leveraging PHP, jQuery, and FontAwesome for UI elements. SEO is enhanced via Yoast SEO plugin, and Google Analytics is integrated for traffic analysis. The site is mobile optimized and uses lazy loading for images. Performance is moderate with room for improvement in caching and resource optimization. No major technical debt is evident, but security headers and privacy mechanisms are lacking. Hosting infrastructure includes cloud servers in Iran and Europe, supporting scalability and reliability. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but can be improved with modern security and privacy best practices.
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.
