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

拉勾网 is a leading Chinese internet recruitment platform specializing in connecting job seekers with internet industry employers. The website offers extensive job listings, company profiles, and career resources tailored for the Chinese market. It holds multiple official licenses indicating regulatory compliance and operates a professional digital presence with a focus on technology sector employment. The platform targets internet professionals and companies seeking talent, positioning itself as a trusted and comprehensive job search solution in China. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including React (Next.js), JavaScript libraries, and Elastic APM for performance monitoring. The site is mobile-optimized and demonstrates good SEO practices, although some accessibility features are basic. Security is robust with HTTPS enforced and cryptographic libraries in use, but lacks some security headers and cookie consent mechanisms, which are recommended for enhanced compliance and protection. From a security perspective, the platform shows a mature posture with encrypted communications and monitoring tools, but the absence of WHOIS data raises some concerns about domain registration transparency. No critical vulnerabilities or malware indicators were found. Privacy policies are comprehensive but GDPR compliance is limited, and cookie consent is not implemented, which could be improved. Overall, 拉勾网 presents a professional, secure, and user-friendly recruitment platform with strong business credibility in the Chinese internet job market. Strategic improvements in privacy compliance and security headers would further enhance trust and regulatory adherence.

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 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 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

拉勾网 operates as an essential entity in the Chinese technology recruitment sector, offering a platform for job seekers and employers in internet-related fields. Its business model revolves around providing job listings, company searches, and additional services such as campus recruitment and training courses. The company serves a large user base across multiple major Chinese cities, supported by a broad partner ecosystem including well-known internet companies. Revenue streams likely include job posting fees, premium services, and advertising. The platform's competitive advantage lies in its specialization in internet jobs and comprehensive service offerings. Growth indicators include active job postings from top-tier companies and continuous platform updates. The company maintains official certifications and transparent contact channels, reinforcing its market position.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced site-wide and use of cryptographic libraries and Elastic APM for monitoring. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces its defense-in-depth. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. Privacy compliance is partial, with a comprehensive privacy policy but lacking cookie consent mechanisms and explicit GDPR compliance indicators. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, which could hinder rapid response to security events. Overall, the security posture is solid but can be improved by implementing recommended headers, cookie consent, and publishing incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with privacy regulations and improve user transparency.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve trust and readiness.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users and comply with standards.

Technical notes

Notes

拉勾网 uses a modern technology stack centered around React with Next.js framework, enabling server-side rendering and improved SEO. The site loads multiple JavaScript bundles and CSS chunks, indicating modular and scalable front-end architecture. Performance is moderate with preloading of critical assets and mobile optimization evident. The use of Elastic APM suggests active performance monitoring and issue detection. However, no CMS is explicitly detected, implying a custom-built platform. Hosting provider details are not available from the content. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in accessibility and security headers are recommended to reduce risks and enhance user experience.
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.
