Risk levelMedium

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

Kaiwhale (开鲸云) is a Chinese cloud service provider specializing in enterprise outbound cloud network management solutions. Their offerings include exclusive clean IPs for account management, AI large model computing resources, e-commerce dedicated VPS, and enterprise-grade outbound acceleration SD-WAN. The company targets enterprises engaged in cross-border e-commerce and AI computing, positioning itself as a niche cloud provider for outbound business needs. Technically, the website is built using Vue.js and PrimeVue components, hosted likely on Alibaba Cloud infrastructure. However, the site lacks a valid SSL certificate and modern TLS support, which significantly impacts its security posture. There are no advanced security headers or DNS security features implemented, and no visible contact or incident response information is provided. Overall, the business shows moderate digital maturity but requires urgent improvements in security and compliance to build trust and protect customer data.

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

5 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 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

      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
  • 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

Kaiwhale operates in the technology sector focusing on cloud services for outbound enterprises. Their business model is based on providing cloud resources on flexible rental terms, including hourly to yearly plans. The company emphasizes exclusivity and quality in IP sales and computing resources, aiming to serve cross-border e-commerce and AI model customers. Partnerships with telecom and hardware providers are showcased, indicating a collaborative ecosystem. The website content and branding are consistent and professionally presented, though limited in contact and compliance transparency. Market positioning is niche with potential growth in outbound cloud services. Revenue streams likely derive from cloud resource rentals and network acceleration services.

Security posture

The current security posture of Kaiwhale is weak due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of HTTPS support, exposing users to potential interception risks. No security headers or DNSSEC are implemented, increasing vulnerability to common web attacks and DNS spoofing. The site does not disclose any security policies, incident response plans, or data protection officer contacts, indicating low maturity in security governance and compliance. The lack of cookie consent and minimal privacy policy details further highlight compliance gaps, especially regarding GDPR or similar regulations. Immediate remediation is needed to secure communications, implement security best practices, and enhance transparency to customers.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate supporting TLS 1.2 or 1.3 to secure all website traffic.
  2. Implement HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload to enforce HTTPS.
  3. Enable DNSSEC and add CAA records to improve DNS security and certificate issuance control.
  4. Add standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Publish comprehensive privacy, cookie, and security policies including GDPR compliance details and incident response contacts.
Technical notes

Notes

The website uses modern JavaScript modules and Vue.js framework with PrimeVue UI components, indicating a contemporary front-end technology stack. Hosting and mail services are managed via Alibaba Cloud infrastructure as inferred from DNS and MX records. Performance is moderate with a page load time of approximately 5 seconds and a page size over 1MB, suggesting optimization opportunities. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic but could be improved. No CMS or third-party analytics/tracking services were detected. The absence of SSL/TLS and security headers represents a critical technical risk. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business model but requires modernization in security and performance optimization.
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.
