Security report for starlink.com

Starlink · Technology · United States

Low risk. 2 critical or high findings in Security headers and SSL/TLS.

Security score

83/100

Risk levelLow

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

Starlink is a satellite internet service operated by SpaceX, offering high-speed, low-latency broadband internet globally via a large constellation of low Earth orbit satellites. The website demonstrates a modern technical infrastructure using Angular, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and hCaptcha for bot protection, reflecting a mature digital presence. However, the absence of WHOIS registration data and lack of explicit privacy and security policies represent gaps in transparency and compliance. The site is professionally designed with excellent user experience and clear branding consistent with SpaceX's reputation. Security posture is moderate with room for improvement in headers and incident response disclosures.

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

2 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"

  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

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

Starlink holds a leading market position as the first and largest low Earth orbit satellite internet provider, targeting both consumers and businesses worldwide, especially in underserved areas. The business model revolves around providing broadband internet via satellite technology, leveraging SpaceX's launch capabilities. The website's structured data and social media presence reinforce brand legitimacy. Absence of detailed contact information and WHOIS transparency may impact trust for some users. The company benefits from strong parent company association and advanced technology deployment.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and bot mitigation via hCaptcha, indicating baseline security practices. However, the lack of visible security headers, absence of published security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggest limited security maturity in public-facing controls. No critical vulnerabilities were detected in the content, but improvements are recommended to enhance trust and compliance, especially regarding GDPR and data protection transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the website footer or main navigation.
  2. Implement and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to harden the website.
  3. Provide clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure contacts, ideally via a security.txt file.
  4. Clarify domain registration details or ensure WHOIS data is publicly available to improve transparency.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and provide explicit data retention and cookie usage disclosures to improve privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Angular framework with Material Design components, integrating Google Analytics and Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. It uses hCaptcha for bot protection and Mapbox GL JS for mapping features. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata. Performance is moderate with potential for optimization. No CMS or hosting provider details were detected. The technical stack reflects a modern, scalable infrastructure suitable for a global technology service provider.
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.
