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

MVKB is a personal brand operated by Tim, a software designer based in Belgium, specializing in custom keyboard and keycap design. The website serves as a portfolio and sales platform for various keyboard projects, including artisan collaborations and limited runs. The brand targets keyboard enthusiasts and collectors within the niche mechanical keyboard community. The business model revolves around design, production, and community engagement through social media and newsletters. Technically, the website is built with standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, leveraging Google Fonts for typography. It is hosted with DNS managed by NS1 and registered through Dynadot. The site is performant, mobile-optimized, and SEO-friendly, though it lacks advanced CMS or frameworks. Security practices include HTTPS enforcement and domain transfer protection, but absence of DNSSEC and security headers are noted. From a security perspective, the site shows a moderate posture with no critical vulnerabilities detected. However, it lacks formal privacy and cookie policies, security headers, and a vulnerability disclosure mechanism, which are areas for improvement. The domain WHOIS data is consistent and indicates a legitimate, long-standing ownership, supporting trustworthiness. Overall, MVKB presents a professional and focused niche business with good technical implementation but could enhance compliance and security transparency to improve 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 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

MVKB operates in the niche market of custom mechanical keyboards and artisan keycaps, leveraging a personal brand approach. The company benefits from a long-established domain and active social media presence, which supports community engagement and marketing. Revenue streams likely include sales of keyboard kits, keycaps, and artisan collaborations. The business targets enthusiasts and collectors, a specialized but passionate segment. The absence of formal corporate structure or physical contact details suggests a small-scale operation. Strategic partnerships are primarily social and community-based rather than formal business alliances.

Security posture

The website maintains a basic to moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer protection active. However, the lack of DNSSEC, security headers, and formal privacy or cookie policies indicates gaps in security best practices and compliance. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, limiting transparency. The site does not expose sensitive data or use vulnerable libraries based on the HTML content. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for a small personal project but should be enhanced to meet higher standards and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

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

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a clean, modern tech stack with HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, and integrates Google Fonts for typography. It is hosted with DNS managed by NS1 and registered via Dynadot. The site is fast and mobile-optimized with good SEO practices. There is no evidence of a CMS or complex frameworks, indicating a lightweight, possibly static site. Performance is good with no broken elements detected. Technical risks include lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers, which could be addressed to reduce attack surface and improve 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.
