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

SaveFiles is a mature video hosting platform established in 2002, offering unlimited storage and bandwidth with a monetization model targeting content creators. The site emphasizes high payout rates and transparent counting, positioning itself as a competitive player in the video hosting market. Technically, the site uses modern frontend technologies including Bootstrap and jQuery, hosted behind Cloudflare with performance and mobile optimization considered good. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and domain locks in place, but lacks advanced security headers and published incident response policies. Privacy compliance is limited due to absence of cookie consent mechanisms and GDPR indicators. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but could improve privacy and security transparency.

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

6 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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 centers on video hosting with monetization through ad revenue sharing, targeting video content creators who want to earn from their uploads. The site offers features like HLS streaming, multi-audio, subtitles, and 24/7 support. Market positioning highlights guaranteed highest earnings and transparent counting, appealing to users seeking reliable payouts. The domain age and consistent WHOIS data support business credibility. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers suggests reliance on web forms for communication. Advertising is managed via known ad networks and tracking tools, with moderate user tracking. The company appears to operate independently without visible parent or subsidiary relationships.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Cloudflare DNS and hosting, providing a baseline of security. However, it lacks several recommended security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options, which could mitigate common web attacks. No security.txt or incident response contacts are published, limiting transparency for vulnerability reporting. The absence of a cookie consent mechanism indicates potential non-compliance with GDPR cookie regulations. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by adopting best practices and enhancing privacy compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a cookie consent banner and update privacy policy to reflect GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information (e.g., security@ or abuse@ emails).
  4. Enable DNSSEC to improve domain security.
  5. Enhance transparency by providing direct contact emails and phone numbers for support and security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack with Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for scripting. Hosting is via Cloudflare, which provides CDN and security features. Google Tag Manager and Adscore are used for analytics and advertising. The site is mobile optimized with good accessibility and SEO basics. Performance is moderate, with deferred scripts and optimized CSS. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or static site architecture. Technical debt appears low, but security header implementation and privacy compliance require attention to reduce risk and improve trust.
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.
