Risk levelMedium

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

The domain libraryfacts.com currently serves as a 404 Not Found error page with no accessible business content. It is used by Admiral, a service provider specializing in copyright access control and privacy consent management for digital publishers. The domain is hosted on Google Cloud Platform and employs HTTPS with good SSL practices, but lacks DNSSEC and security headers. No privacy or cookie policies, contact information, or business details are present on the site, limiting its transparency and user trust. The domain registration is consistent and legitimate, registered via NameCheap since 2020, with no privacy protection enabled. Overall, the site appears to be a placeholder or service endpoint rather than a customer-facing website.

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

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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';…

  3. 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

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 domain is positioned as a service domain for Admiral's copyright and privacy compliance solutions targeting digital publishers and their audiences. It does not present a direct business front or commercial offering. The business model is service provision to publishers for copyright access control and GDPR compliance. There are no visible revenue streams, marketing efforts, or customer engagement features on this domain. The lack of business contact details and policies reduces credibility and user confidence. The domain's role is likely as a backend or support domain rather than a primary business site.

Security posture

Security practices described on the 404 page indicate a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced, frequent certificate rotation, and continuous scanning of content endpoints. No executable files or downloads are hosted, reducing attack surface. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers is a minor gap. Incident response contact is provided via security@getadmiral.com, but no formal vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present. Overall, the domain demonstrates good operational security but lacks transparency and comprehensive security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish clear and accessible privacy and cookie policies on the domain or linked pages to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  3. Add standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Provide more detailed incident response and vulnerability disclosure information, including a security.txt file.
  5. Improve mobile optimization and accessibility to enhance user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The domain is hosted on Google Cloud Platform in Europe and serves static content including JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. The site uses HTTPS with good SSL configuration and frequent certificate rotation. No CMS or advanced frameworks are detected. The site is minimal and currently only serves a 404 error page with embedded SVG graphics. There are no analytics, advertising, or tracking scripts present. The technical implementation is basic but secure. Performance is moderate given the minimal content. Opportunities exist to improve SEO, accessibility, and mobile responsiveness.
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.
