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

Melbet Nepal is an international online betting platform targeting Nepali users with a comprehensive offering of sports betting, casino games, and mobile applications. The platform emphasizes local payment methods and provides a user-friendly interface optimized for mobile and desktop users. Despite its strong market position and broad service portfolio, the website lacks critical compliance documentation such as privacy and cookie policies, which impacts its regulatory posture. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern SEO tools and uses Cloudflare DNS services, but the domain WHOIS data shows inconsistencies that raise questions about legitimacy. Security practices include SSL encryption and two-factor authentication, but the absence of DNSSEC and security headers suggests room for improvement. Overall, the platform is functional and moderately secure but requires enhancements in compliance and domain legitimacy to improve trust and reduce risk.

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

8 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 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

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

Melbet operates as a medium-sized online gambling business focused on the Nepali market, leveraging a Curaçao license to provide legal betting services. Its competitive advantages include a wide range of betting markets, local payment integrations, and mobile app availability. The business model relies on user acquisition through bonuses and promotions, targeting mature users interested in cricket, football, esports, and casino games. The company maintains a moderate level of professionalism and branding consistency but lacks transparency in privacy and security policies. Growth potential exists given the popularity of betting in Nepal, but domain registration inconsistencies and limited compliance documentation may hinder trust and expansion.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level with SSL encryption and clientTransferProhibited domain status. However, the lack of DNSSEC, security headers, and published security policies indicates gaps in security best practices. No incident response or abuse contacts are provided, limiting readiness for security events. The absence of privacy and cookie policies also suggests compliance gaps with GDPR and similar regulations. While two-factor authentication is available for login, overall security posture would benefit from enhanced DNS security, header implementation, and formalized incident response procedures.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS integrity and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to enhance compliance and user trust.
  3. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Provide clear incident response and abuse contact information on the website.
  5. Verify and correct WHOIS domain registration data to align with business claims and improve legitimacy.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using version 6.8.2, enhanced with the Yoast SEO plugin for search engine optimization. It employs jQuery 3.7.1 for client-side scripting and is hosted behind Cloudflare DNS services. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and supports Android and iOS mobile apps. Performance is moderate with no major errors detected. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers indicates technical debt in security hardening. The domain registration data is inconsistent, showing a future creation date, which may indicate administrative errors or attempts to obscure ownership details. Overall, the technical infrastructure is functional but requires modernization in security and compliance aspects.
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.
