Technology
High risk. 4 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view, SSL/TLS and 1 other check.
NeverSSL is a niche utility website designed to assist users in accessing wifi captive portals that block HTTPS redirection by providing a plain HTTP site that can be redirected to for login purposes. The site is minimalistic, with basic content and no commercial or business identity. Its market position is limited to users facing captive portal access issues, and it does not appear to operate as a commercial business. Technically, the website is simple, using only HTML and CSS without modern frameworks or CMS. It lacks HTTPS, security headers, and privacy or cookie policies, which significantly impacts its security posture. The site does not collect user data or use analytics, resulting in minimal privacy concerns but also limited compliance. Overall, the website is functional for its intended purpose but lacks professional security and compliance features.

The NIS2 figure counts only evidence anyone can see from the internet. 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
4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
GDPR outside view
These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.
- Critical
No HTTPS encryption
GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data
What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS
- CWE-319
- OWASP A04:2025
- ASVS V12.2.1
- NIS2 21(2)(h)
- IR 2024/2690 9.2(a): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(a): Cryptography
- GDPR Art. 32(1)(a)
- NIST SC-8: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-8: Transmission Confidentiality and Integrity
- Critical
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.
- Critical
No HTTPS Encryption
Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception
What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS
- CWE-319
- OWASP A04:2025
- ASVS V12.2.1
- NIS2 21(2)(h)
- IR 2024/2690 9.2(a): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(a): Cryptography
- GDPR Art. 32(1)(a)
- NIST SC-8: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-8: Transmission Confidentiality and Integrity
- Critical
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.
- High
No SPF record found
neverssl.com publishes no SPF record, so receiving servers cannot tell which servers may send mail as this domain.
What to do: Publish one TXT record listing your mail providers, for example "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourprovider.com -all". A domain that sends no mail should publish "v=spf1 -all".
- RFC 7208
- NIS2 21(2)(e)
- IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(k): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(k): Network security
- NIST SP 800-177r1
- High
No DMARC record found
There is no DMARC record at _dmarc.neverssl.com, so receivers have no instruction for mail that fails SPF and DKIM.
What to do: Publish a TXT record at _dmarc.neverssl.com, starting with "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@neverssl.com" and moving to p=quarantine or p=reject once reports look clean.

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
- Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
- 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.
- Accessibility: Accessibility is a separate readout from security, so it is reported but not scored. 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 · found on this site
- 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 notes
Notes
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.
