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

Minimal Character Sheet is a small-scale, niche web application designed to provide Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition players with a simple, flexible digital character sheet alternative to more complex platforms. The service emphasizes minimalism, user flexibility, and rich text support, targeting users who prefer less automation and more control over their character data. The website is professionally designed with good content quality and clear navigation, supporting a positive user experience for its target audience. Technically, the site employs modern web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, Google Fonts, and third-party libraries such as Quill for rich text editing and BaguetteBox for image galleries. Hosting is managed via Hover, with domain registration dating back to 2019, indicating a stable and mature presence. Performance and mobile optimization are good, though accessibility and SEO optimizations are basic. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and has domain transfer protections in place, but lacks DNSSEC and important security headers. No privacy, cookie, or terms of service policies are published, representing compliance gaps. Analytics are handled via privacy-focused Fathom Analytics, with minimal user tracking. Contact information is limited to a single email address, with no phone or physical address provided. Overall, the website presents a trustworthy and functional service for its niche market but would benefit from enhanced security practices and formalized privacy compliance to improve user 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

9 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 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 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 business operates in the Technology sector, specifically targeting tabletop role-playing gamers with a digital tool for D&D character management. Its competitive advantage lies in simplicity and flexibility compared to more automated competitors like D&D Beyond. The business model appears to be free account registration with potential for future monetization or community growth. The founder is likely an individual or small team, as indicated by the personal contact email and small business size. There is no evidence of partnerships, subsidiaries, or parent companies. The website content and domain age suggest steady but modest growth, focusing on a dedicated niche audience. The lack of formal business information and policies indicates an early-stage or hobbyist project rather than a large commercial enterprise.

Security posture

The current security posture is moderate. HTTPS is enforced, and domain registration includes transfer and update prohibitions, which protect against unauthorized domain changes. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security robustness. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, which limits transparency and preparedness. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. The use of Fathom Analytics suggests a privacy-conscious approach to user tracking. Overall, the site is secure enough for its purpose but should improve security controls and compliance documentation to reduce risk and enhance user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy to improve GDPR and privacy compliance.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  3. Implement key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Add a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure page to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Consider expanding contact information with phone or physical address to improve business credibility and trust.

Key observations

  1. Website is fully accessible with no blocking or WAF challenges.
  2. No privacy, cookie, or terms of service policies found, which is a compliance gap.
  3. Contact information limited to a single email address; no phone or physical address provided.
  4. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure information present.
  5. Use of modern web fonts and JavaScript libraries for UI and analytics.
  6. No CMS detected; likely a custom or static site.
  7. Domain registered with Hover and uses their nameservers.
  8. No DNSSEC enabled, which is a minor security shortfall.
  9. Website content is niche and targeted to D&D players seeking minimal character sheets.
  10. No advertising networks detected; only privacy-respecting Fathom Analytics used.
Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and lightweight technology stack with HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript libraries for rich text editing and image galleries. Google Fonts integration enhances typography. Hosting is via Hover, a reputable domain registrar and hosting provider. Performance is moderate with deferred loading of analytics scripts. Mobile optimization is good, but accessibility features are basic and could be improved. SEO is basic with minimal meta tags and no structured data or Open Graph tags detected. No CMS is identified, indicating a custom or static site build. Technical risks include lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers, which could be addressed to improve resilience and compliance.
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.
