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

PSN中文站 is a Chinese language community platform dedicated to PlayStation Network users, offering services such as PSN account queries, trophy lists and guides, game news, PSN rankings, matchmaking, and discount information. The website targets Chinese-speaking gamers and has been operational since 2012, hosted by Alibaba Cloud Computing in Beijing. The platform maintains an active community with frequent content updates and user engagement. Technically, the site uses a traditional jQuery-based stack with custom JavaScript and CSS, and integrates Baidu Analytics for user tracking. Mobile optimization and SEO are adequately addressed, though accessibility features are basic. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS usage but lacks DNSSEC and security headers, and no privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating compliance gaps. Contact information including emails and phone numbers is clearly provided, and the site displays ICP and public security filings, reflecting regulatory compliance in China. Overall, the website is functional, content-rich, and moderately secure but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance and security hardening.

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. 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

The website operates as a niche community platform focused on the Chinese PlayStation user base, providing valuable gaming-related services and social features. Its business model revolves around community engagement and content sharing rather than direct commerce. The site benefits from a stable domain registration dating back to 2012 and hosting by a reputable cloud provider. The presence of ICP and public security filings indicates adherence to Chinese internet regulations. The platform's competitive advantage lies in its comprehensive Chinese-language PSN content and active user community. Revenue streams are not explicit but may include advertising or sponsorships. The absence of social media links suggests a focus on organic community growth. The site has a moderate size and consistent branding, positioning it as a trusted resource within its niche.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and some best practices like referrer policy on images. However, it lacks DNSSEC, security headers (e.g., Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options), and formal privacy or cookie policies, which are critical for GDPR and general data protection compliance. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are present, and the use of older jQuery versions may pose risks if not regularly updated. Incident response contact is provided via a reporting email, which is a positive indicator. Overall, while no critical vulnerabilities are evident from the HTML content, the site should improve its security posture to mitigate potential risks and enhance user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with user consent mechanisms to improve compliance.
  2. Enable DNSSEC for the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  3. Add essential security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to protect against common web attacks.
  4. Regularly update JavaScript libraries and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities from outdated components.
  5. Establish a formal vulnerability disclosure policy and consider publishing a security.txt file to improve transparency and incident response readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a traditional web stack primarily based on jQuery 1.12.4 and custom JavaScript and CSS files. It is hosted on Alibaba Cloud Computing, a reputable provider, with domain registration dating back to 2012. The site loads external resources from trusted domains including Baidu Analytics and PlayStation's official resource servers. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices, though accessibility features are basic. The absence of modern frameworks or CMS indicates a custom-built or lightly customized platform. Technical risks include the use of older JavaScript libraries and lack of DNSSEC. Opportunities exist to modernize the tech stack, improve security headers, and enhance privacy compliance to align with current best practices.
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.
