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

4 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 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. 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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

ServerMania targets businesses requiring robust hosting infrastructure, including dedicated and cloud servers, colocation, and IP transit services. Their business model centers on providing customizable infrastructure as a service (IaaS) with a focus on performance, reliability, and security. The company leverages partnerships with notable clients such as Comodo, Webdock, and PureVPN, enhancing its market credibility. Revenue streams likely include server rentals, managed services, and colocation fees. Growth indicators include recent data center expansions (e.g., Amsterdam 2024) and active content marketing via blogs and webinars. The partnership ecosystem is strong, with multiple case studies and testimonials highlighting successful collaborations. Strategic observations suggest ServerMania is positioned as a mid-sized, trusted provider in the competitive hosting market, emphasizing compliance and customer support.

Security posture

ServerMania exhibits a mature security posture with adherence to multiple certifications (SOC 1/2, PCI, HIPAA, ISO 27001, HITRUST, SSAE16) and a 100% uptime SLA. The website enforces HTTPS and employs secure forms with invisible reCAPTCHA to mitigate abuse. Privacy and cookie policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, with explicit consent mechanisms. However, no explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure pages were found, which could enhance transparency and readiness. Security headers are implied but not explicitly confirmed in the HTML. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Overall, the security culture appears strong, supported by rapid support response times and multilingual expert teams. Recommendations include publishing incident response contacts and security.txt files to further improve security transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Publish explicit security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) and verify their implementation.
  2. Add a dedicated incident response or abuse contact page to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures.
  4. Verify and update WHOIS registration data to improve domain trustworthiness.
  5. Continue enhancing privacy compliance by detailing data retention policies and user rights.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using the Astro framework, leveraging modern JavaScript modules and optimized for performance and mobile responsiveness. It integrates multiple third-party analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, Facebook Pixel, Clearbit, and Wicked Reports, indicating a sophisticated data collection and marketing strategy. The site uses Netlify forms with reCAPTCHA for secure data collection. Performance is fast with preconnect hints and lazy loading of images. Accessibility is good with semantic HTML and ARIA labels. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Technical risks are minimal, but reliance on multiple third-party scripts may introduce privacy considerations. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern, scalable, and well-implemented.
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.
