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

The website redirectingat.com serves as a redirect landing page for Skimlinks, a content-to-commerce affiliate marketing platform. The site is minimalistic, providing information about Skimlinks' business model and guidance for users who land on broken affiliate links. The domain is well-established since 2008 and uses AWS DNS infrastructure. The technical setup includes Google Analytics for user tracking but lacks advanced security headers and privacy policies. The site is accessible without WAF or blocking mechanisms and contains no adult or questionable content. Overall, the website supports the affiliate marketing business model 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

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 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

    • 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

Skimlinks operates in the affiliate marketing technology sector, targeting publishers and content creators who monetize editorial content. The business model revolves around automated affiliation of links to generate revenue from shopping journeys. The company has a medium-sized presence with a long domain history, indicating stability. The website content and domain registration are consistent, reinforcing legitimacy. However, the lack of visible contact information and formal policies on this page limits transparency. The partnership ecosystem includes the main skimlinks.com domain, which is the core platform. Growth indicators are not directly visible from this page but the brand is well-known in the affiliate marketing space.

Security posture

The security posture is moderate. The domain uses HTTPS (implied by Google Analytics script loading over HTTPS), but no DNSSEC is enabled and no security headers were detected in the provided data. The domain status locks provide some protection against unauthorized changes. No forms or user input fields reduce attack surface. Absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps. No incident response or security contact information is provided. Overall, the site is low risk but could improve with standard security best practices and compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish privacy and cookie policies to improve GDPR compliance.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS.
  4. Provide clear contact information including security and abuse contacts.
  5. Improve mobile responsiveness and accessibility for better user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a simple HTML structure with external CSS and JavaScript for Google Analytics tracking. Hosting appears to be on AWS infrastructure based on DNS nameservers. The site lacks modern frameworks or CMS indications, suggesting a lightweight custom or static setup. Performance is likely moderate given minimal content and external script usage. SEO and accessibility are basic with minimal meta tags and no ARIA or accessibility features detected. The technical debt is low but modernization opportunities exist in security and compliance areas.
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.
