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

Ponymusic Wiki is a niche, community-maintained online database focused on pony music tracks, artists, albums, and related metadata. It serves a specialized audience of pony music fans and contributors, offering features such as data export, import tools, and API documentation. The website is relatively new, founded in 2022, and hosted via Squarespace Domains with a privacy-protected WHOIS registration. The site uses modern web technologies including the Svelte framework, providing a good user experience with clear navigation and mobile optimization. However, it lacks formal privacy and cookie policies, and no contact or business information is provided, which limits its compliance and trustworthiness from a regulatory perspective. Security-wise, HTTPS is enabled but advanced security headers and DNSSEC are missing, indicating room for improvement in hardening the site against common web threats.

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. 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

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: PostgreSQL

      Port 5432 (PostgreSQL) is publicly accessible - PostgreSQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to PostgreSQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  4. 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"

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 · found on this site
  • 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 website operates as a community-driven wiki, relying on user contributions to build a comprehensive pony music database. Its business model appears non-commercial, focusing on content aggregation and community engagement rather than direct monetization. The target audience is niche but dedicated, consisting of pony music enthusiasts and creators. The site’s market position is that of a specialized resource within the pony fandom media sector. The absence of formal business contact details and policies suggests a small-scale operation without extensive commercial infrastructure. The use of privacy protection in domain registration is typical for such community projects. There are no detected partnerships or subsidiaries, and no advertising or analytics services are integrated, indicating a focus on user privacy and minimal tracking.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enabled, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the lack of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces its resilience against DNS spoofing, clickjacking, and MIME-type attacks. No incident response or security policy information is provided, which could hinder timely handling of security incidents. The absence of privacy and cookie policies also raises compliance concerns, particularly under GDPR. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended best practices and formalizing security governance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Enable DNSSEC for the domain to improve DNS security.
  4. Provide clear contact information including an incident response or abuse contact email.
  5. Consider integrating basic analytics with privacy-respecting configurations to monitor site usage and improve user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web standards with HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, leveraging the Svelte framework for frontend rendering. The site is hosted on infrastructure managed by Squarespace Domains, a reputable provider. Performance is moderate with deferred JavaScript loading and responsive design for mobile devices. SEO optimization is basic with meta viewport and title tags present but no Open Graph or JSON-LD structured data detected. Accessibility features are minimal but the site structure is clear and navigable. There is no evidence of CMS usage beyond custom or framework-based implementation. The lack of advanced security headers and DNSSEC indicates technical debt in security configuration. Overall, the technical infrastructure is adequate for a small community site but could benefit from enhancements in SEO, accessibility, and security.
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.
