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

The website www.northseasurfradio.com is a Japanese language informational and affiliate marketing site focused on hair removal salons and medical hair removal clinics in Gifu, Japan. It provides rankings, recommendations, and affiliate links to popular salons such as TBC, Ginza Color, and Musee. The site targets consumers in the Gifu region seeking affordable and effective hair removal services. Technically, the site uses basic HTML, CSS, and JavaScript with Shift_JIS encoding and includes external tracking scripts from Research Artisan Pro. There is no evidence of a CMS or advanced frameworks. Security posture is weak due to lack of HTTPS confirmation, missing security headers, and absence of privacy or cookie policies. WHOIS data is unavailable, raising concerns about domain legitimacy and ownership transparency. Overall, the site has basic content quality and technical implementation but lacks critical security and privacy compliance features.

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

7 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 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 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';…

  2. 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 model appears to be affiliate marketing, monetizing traffic by promoting hair removal salons and clinics in Gifu. The site occupies a niche local market segment with limited direct competition. It leverages affiliate networks such as afi-b.com for monetization. The absence of clear company information, contact details, and certifications limits business credibility. The target audience is local consumers interested in hair removal services. Growth potential depends on SEO and affiliate partnerships. The site does not appear to be part of a larger corporate group or have subsidiaries. The content is relevant and moderately well structured but lacks professional polish and trust signals.

Security posture

The security maturity level is low. No HTTPS status was confirmed, and no security headers were detected in the provided data. The site lacks privacy and cookie policies, GDPR compliance indicators, and incident response information. No contact emails or phone numbers are provided for security or abuse reporting. The use of external tracking scripts without clear privacy disclosures further reduces compliance. There are no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data, but the lack of basic security best practices and transparency is a concern. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are absent.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate and enforce secure connections site-wide.
  2. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and other regulations.
  3. Publish clear contact information including company emails and phone numbers for customer and security inquiries.
  4. Configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve security posture.
  5. Conduct a security audit to identify and remediate any potential vulnerabilities and improve incident response capabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses basic HTML and CSS with JavaScript for tracking and affiliate linking. The charset is Shift_JIS, which is less common in modern web development but appropriate for Japanese content. No CMS or advanced frameworks were detected. External scripts are loaded asynchronously from Research Artisan Pro for analytics and affiliate tracking. The site appears to have moderate performance and basic mobile optimization. SEO features are minimal but include canonical tags and structured data for breadcrumbs. Accessibility features are basic. Hosting provider and infrastructure details are not available from the data provided. Overall, the technical implementation is functional but dated and could benefit from modernization and security enhancements.
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.
