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

ServerMonster is a small Latvian-based hosting provider specializing in shared hosting, VPS, and dedicated servers. The company positions itself as a reliable and customer-focused hosting service with a variety of plans tailored for individuals and businesses. The website is professionally designed, mobile optimized, and provides clear contact information and detailed terms of service. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies including Bootstrap, jQuery, and integrates analytics and live chat tools, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS usage and secure forms, but lacks explicit security headers and published incident response contacts. Privacy compliance is weak due to the absence of a privacy or cookie policy. Overall, the site is trustworthy but could improve in 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

9 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  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';…

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

ServerMonster operates in the competitive web hosting market, targeting startups, developers, and businesses needing reliable hosting solutions. Its competitive advantages include a range of hosting options, positive customer testimonials, and a presence in multiple countries via network connections. The business model is service-based with recurring revenue from hosting plans and domain registrations. The company leverages partnerships with known technology brands (e.g., AMD, Intel) as indicated by sponsor logos. Growth indicators include active blog updates and customer engagement via live chat. Strategic observations suggest focusing on enhancing privacy compliance and security transparency to strengthen market trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and secure contact forms. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options, which are important for mitigating common web attacks. There is no published incident response or abuse contact information, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file further reduces security openness. Data protection practices mention GDPR compliance in terms but lack a dedicated privacy policy. Overall, the security posture is functional but could be significantly improved to meet best practices and compliance standards.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with explicit user consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Implement and configure essential security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance web security.
  3. Add a clearly visible incident response contact or abuse email to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Create and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to avoid vulnerabilities and improve performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and popular technology stack including Bootstrap for responsive design, jQuery for DOM manipulation, Owl Carousel for sliders, and integrates multiple analytics and live chat services. The site is mobile optimized and has good navigation clarity. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of analytics scripts to reduce blocking. However, accessibility features are basic and could be enhanced. The hosting provider is linked to the registrar CSL GmbH Computer Service Langenbach d/b/a joker.com, indicating a professional domain registration. There is no evidence of a CMS, suggesting a custom or static site build. Technical risks include missing security headers and lack of privacy compliance features.
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.
