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

Nameshift.com operates as a domain name brokerage and escrow service focused on providing safe, fast, and fee-free domain transfers for buyers. The business model centers on charging sellers a commission while offering buyers a secure and straightforward purchasing experience. The website content is minimal and primarily serves as a landing page to facilitate domain purchases via Nameshift.com. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies such as SvelteKit and is hosted on a Caddy server, but lacks proper SSL/TLS configuration, resulting in no HTTPS availability. This significantly impacts the security posture and user trust. Security headers are partially implemented, but critical vulnerabilities exist due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and TLS protocols. Privacy and cookie policies are missing, and no contact emails or phone numbers are provided, limiting compliance and user support capabilities. Overall, the site demonstrates a basic digital presence with room for significant improvements in security, privacy, and content completeness.

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. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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 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';…

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 targets individuals and businesses seeking domain name purchases with escrow protection. Its competitive advantage lies in offering a no-fee service to buyers and ensuring payment only after successful domain transfer. The business operates in the technology sector, specifically domain brokerage, and is based in the Netherlands. The presence of VAT and registration numbers indicates a legitimate registered business entity. The partnership with nameshift.com is central to its operations, handling payments and domain transfers. Growth potential depends on improving digital trust and expanding content and compliance measures. The lack of detailed business information and contact channels may limit customer confidence and market reach.

Security posture

The current security posture is weak due to the absence of HTTPS and valid SSL certificates, exposing users to potential interception and man-in-the-middle attacks. While some security headers are present, they are ineffective without proper TLS. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are found, and privacy compliance is lacking. The site does not implement cookie consent or privacy policies, which is a compliance risk under GDPR. The lack of analytics and tracking reduces privacy concerns but also limits business intelligence. Immediate remediation of SSL/TLS and privacy policies is critical to improve security maturity and user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS and secure communications.
  2. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms to comply with GDPR.
  3. Add clear contact information including company emails and phone numbers to improve user trust and support.
  4. Introduce a security.txt file and incident response contacts to enhance vulnerability disclosure and response readiness.
  5. Enhance website content quality and completeness to improve user experience and business credibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using the SvelteKit framework with JavaScript and CSS assets loaded from a CDN. The hosting server is Caddy, located in the eu-central-1b region. Despite modern technology usage, the site lacks a valid SSL certificate and does not support any TLS protocols, severely impacting security and SEO. Performance metrics are missing, but the presence of multiple preload and modulepreload tags suggests an attempt at optimization. Mobile optimization appears good based on responsive design elements. Accessibility and SEO are basic, with minimal metadata and no structured data or Open Graph tags detected. The site does not use any analytics or tracking services, which limits data-driven improvements. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern but incomplete and insecure.
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.
