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

Nameshift.com operates a domain name marketplace specializing in safe and fast domain transfers using an escrow service. The platform targets domain buyers and sellers seeking secure transactions without additional fees. The website is built on modern SvelteKit technology and hosted via Vimexx with CDN support, indicating a contemporary technical infrastructure. However, the site content is minimal with placeholder elements, suggesting it may be under development or low in content volume. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled but lacking security headers and privacy policies. The domain is very recently registered, which may affect trustworthiness. Overall, the business model is clear but the digital maturity and compliance aspects require enhancement.

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. 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

    • 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

  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 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

The company positions itself as a niche domain transfer service provider leveraging escrow to mitigate buyer risk. Its competitive advantage lies in free transfer assistance, VAT invoicing, and refund guarantees. The business model relies on seller commissions rather than buyer fees. The target market includes domain investors and businesses needing domain ownership transfers. The company appears small and focused on the Netherlands market, with no evident subsidiaries or parent companies. The partnership with nameshift.com is central to its operations. Growth indicators are limited due to minimal content and recent domain registration.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS but lacks visible security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS, which are recommended for enhanced protection. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, and no security certifications are mentioned. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, reducing privacy risks but also limiting user behavior insights. Overall, the security maturity is basic, with room for significant improvements in policy transparency and technical safeguards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to improve site security.
  3. Publish incident response and vulnerability disclosure information to build trust.
  4. Enhance contact information with verified company emails and phone numbers.
  5. Increase website content quality and SEO metadata to improve user experience and search visibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using the SvelteKit framework, leveraging modern JavaScript and CSS with module preloading for performance. Hosting is provided by Vimexx with CDN assets served from buy.nameshift.com. The site shows moderate performance with good mobile optimization but basic accessibility and SEO features. The HTML structure is valid but contains many placeholder loading animations, indicating incomplete content. No CMS or analytics platforms are detected. The technical stack is modern but the site would benefit from enhanced metadata, accessibility improvements, and security header implementation to reduce technical risks.
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.
