Risk levelMedium

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

The website jonKorn.com is a personal portfolio and blog site showcasing creative projects by Jon Korn. It is hosted on WordPress.com and leverages standard WordPress technologies including Jetpack and Gutenberg. The site presents a consistent and professional portfolio with good design and navigation, targeting a general audience interested in creative media. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies and is moderately optimized for performance and mobile devices. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer protection, but lacks DNSSEC and advanced security headers. Privacy compliance is basic with a cookie consent mechanism but no explicit privacy or terms of service pages. No direct contact information or business certifications are provided, consistent with a personal portfolio site. Overall, the site is legitimate, safe, and professionally maintained but could improve in security and privacy 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

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 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

  3. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • High

      No DMARC record found

      DMARC provides email authentication and reporting

      What to do: Add DMARC record: "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@yourdomain.com"

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

Jon Korn operates as a creative professional presenting a portfolio of media projects. The business model is personal branding and portfolio display without direct e-commerce or service sales. The market position is niche within creative media, targeting potential clients or collaborators. The site is small scale, founded in 2012, with no parent or subsidiary companies. Advertising is used for monetization via WordPress.com ad networks. The partnership ecosystem includes WordPress.com and advertising partners. Growth indicators are not explicit but the site is well maintained. Strategic observations suggest focusing on enhancing privacy and security policies to build trust.

Security posture

The security maturity level is moderate. HTTPS is enforced, and domain transfer is protected. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and no advanced HTTP security headers are detected. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure policy. Data protection officer contact or security policies are absent. The site uses standard WordPress.com infrastructure which provides baseline security. Potential vulnerabilities include lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers. Compliance gaps exist in privacy policy and incident response transparency. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a personal portfolio but could be improved for higher trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish clear privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve compliance and user trust.
  4. Add incident response and vulnerability disclosure information to demonstrate security readiness.
  5. Consider adding verified contact information to improve business credibility and user confidence.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress.com platform using Gutenberg editor and Jetpack plugin. It integrates advertising via Amazon Ads, WordAds, and Google DoubleClick. Analytics are implemented with Google Analytics and WordPress.com stats. The site uses modern CSS and JavaScript libraries but lacks some advanced security headers. Performance is moderate with some optimization for mobile devices. The technical stack is standard for WordPress.com hosted personal sites, providing ease of maintenance but limited customization of security controls. Opportunities exist to modernize security configurations and enhance privacy compliance.
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.
