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

Karaoke-Version.com is an established e-commerce platform specializing in downloadable instrumental and karaoke tracks, offering over 84,000 songs with customization features. The site targets karaoke enthusiasts and musicians globally, providing various product types including custom backing tracks, vocal backing tracks, video karaoke, and instrument-specific versions. The business is operated by Recisio, a company with a history dating back to 2004, positioning itself as a leading source in the karaoke music niche. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies such as jQuery, Google Analytics, and Google Tag Manager, hosted on a dedicated CDN infrastructure for optimal performance. The site is mobile-optimized with excellent design quality and user experience, supporting multiple languages and regional versions. SEO and accessibility practices are well implemented, contributing to strong digital maturity. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and displays secure payment logos indicating PCI compliance. However, it lacks visible security headers and a cookie consent mechanism, which are important for enhanced security and privacy compliance. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain raises some concerns about domain registration transparency, although the website content and branding suggest legitimacy. Overall, Karaoke-Version.com presents a professional and trustworthy platform with a solid business model and technical foundation. Strategic improvements in security headers, privacy consent, and domain registration transparency would further strengthen its security posture and compliance standing.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 19 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography

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 platform holds a strong market position as a specialized provider of karaoke and instrumental music downloads, leveraging a large and evolving catalog to attract a niche audience. Its business model is based on direct sales of digital music products with customization options, appealing to both casual users and professional musicians. The presence of affiliate programs and a parent company (Recisio) indicates a structured partnership ecosystem. Growth indicators include frequent new releases and user engagement features like song suggestions and voting. The company focuses on media sector operations with a medium-sized footprint and a history since 2004, suggesting stable operations and market experience.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enforcement and secure payment indicators. However, the lack of security headers such as Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS reduces its defense-in-depth capabilities. No explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is available, which may impact readiness and transparency. GDPR compliance is partially addressed via a privacy policy, but the absence of a cookie consent banner is a compliance gap. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML source. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could benefit from enhancements in headers, consent mechanisms, and published security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to strengthen browser security.
  2. Deploy a cookie consent banner to ensure GDPR compliance and inform users about tracking and data usage.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Verify and update domain WHOIS information to improve trust and legitimacy perception.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a solid technical foundation using jQuery and custom JavaScript modules for interactive features such as search, audio playback, and modals. It leverages Google Analytics and Tag Manager for user behavior tracking and marketing insights. Hosting is via a specialized CDN (cdnaws.recis.io) ensuring fast content delivery. The site is well optimized for mobile devices and accessibility, with proper use of meta tags and SEO best practices. There is no evidence of a CMS, suggesting a custom-built platform. Performance is fast with preloading of images and fonts. Technical risks include missing security headers and lack of explicit privacy consent mechanisms, which could affect compliance and security posture.
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.
