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

NameMC is an established online platform founded in 2015 that serves the Minecraft gaming community by providing services such as Minecraft name availability checking, name history lookup, skin downloads, server listings, and a dedicated store. The website targets Minecraft players and enthusiasts globally, offering a comprehensive resource for Minecraft-related digital assets and community engagement. The platform maintains a consistent brand presence and good content quality, positioning itself as a popular and trusted resource within the Minecraft ecosystem. Technically, the website leverages modern web technologies including Bootstrap, jQuery, and various analytics and advertising scripts, hosted behind Cloudflare for performance and security. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly, with structured data enhancing search visibility. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protection enabled, though DNSSEC is not configured, representing a minor security gap. Privacy compliance is limited as no explicit privacy or cookie policies were found in the provided content, though a consent mechanism is present. Overall, the site demonstrates moderate to good security and compliance maturity but would benefit from enhanced transparency and formal policies. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, publishing comprehensive privacy and security policies, and providing clear contact channels for incident response.

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

3 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 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. 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.

    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

NameMC operates in the technology sector focusing on gaming community services. Its business model revolves around providing free tools and resources for Minecraft players, monetized through advertising and an online store. The platform benefits from a strong niche market position as a go-to resource for Minecraft names and skins. Its target audience includes casual and dedicated Minecraft players seeking name availability checks, skin customization, and server information. The company leverages partnerships with advertising networks and tracking services to generate revenue. Growth indicators include multi-language support and active community engagement via Discord and social media. The absence of explicit company contact information and formal policies suggests a lean operational structure focused on digital service delivery rather than traditional corporate presence.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Cloudflare for DNS and CDN services, enhancing security and performance. Domain registration includes clientTransferProhibited status, preventing unauthorized transfers. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which could expose the domain to DNS spoofing attacks. The site employs multiple third-party advertising and tracking scripts, which may increase the attack surface and privacy risks. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, limiting transparency and preparedness. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for improvement in domain security and policy transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy detailing data collection and user rights.
  3. Implement and disclose a formal security policy and incident response plan with clear contact channels.
  4. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance browser security.
  5. Review and minimize third-party tracking scripts to reduce privacy risks and improve user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack including Bootstrap 5, jQuery, FontAwesome, and Google Fonts, ensuring responsive and visually appealing design. It integrates multiple advertising and analytics services such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Quantcast, and Comscore, indicating a mature marketing and monetization strategy. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, providing CDN and security benefits. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and deferred JavaScript execution. Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO is enhanced through meta tags, Open Graph, Twitter cards, and JSON-LD structured data. Technical debt appears low, but the presence of numerous third-party scripts may impact page load times and privacy compliance. Opportunities exist to optimize script loading and enhance security headers.
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.
