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

The website tmpfiles.org offers a straightforward temporary file hosting service allowing users to upload files up to 100 MB with automatic deletion after 60 minutes. The service targets general users needing ephemeral file sharing without account creation or long-term storage. The business operates under Njalla Okta LLC, registered in Saint Kitts and Nevis since 2015, indicating a stable domain age appropriate for the service maturity. The website's market position is niche, focusing on privacy-conscious temporary file hosting. Technically, the website uses basic web technologies including Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for tracking, and Google Fonts for typography. Hosting appears to be managed via Njalla's infrastructure. The site is moderately optimized for performance and mobile use but lacks advanced SEO and accessibility features. No CMS or major frameworks are detected, indicating a lightweight custom implementation. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS (implied by Google Analytics scripts loaded over HTTPS), but no DNSSEC is enabled and no security headers are detected in the provided data. The domain has transfer and update prohibitions set, which is positive. However, the absence of privacy and cookie policies, lack of contact or incident response information, and moderate user tracking without consent mechanisms represent compliance and security gaps. Overall, the website is functional and serves its purpose but requires improvements in privacy compliance, security hardening, and transparency to enhance trustworthiness and regulatory adherence. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, publishing privacy and cookie policies, adding security headers, and providing clear contact channels for security incidents.

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.

Priority findings

11 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

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

Tmpfiles.org operates in the technology sector providing a free temporary file hosting service. Its competitive advantage lies in simplicity and privacy-focused ephemeral file storage. The business model appears to be free service possibly supported by indirect monetization or brand presence. Target customers are general internet users needing quick file sharing without registration. The company is small-sized with no visible subsidiaries or partners. The domain's registration with Njalla Okta LLC, a privacy-focused registrar, aligns with the privacy-centric service offering. Growth indicators are not visible from the data. The partnership ecosystem is minimal with no partner domains identified. Strategic observations suggest focusing on compliance and security improvements to strengthen market position.

Security posture

The security maturity of tmpfiles.org is moderate. The domain has clientTransferProhibited and clientUpdateProhibited statuses, which protect against unauthorized domain changes. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which could expose DNS spoofing risks. The website lacks published security policies, incident response contacts, and security headers, limiting its defense-in-depth posture. Use of Google Analytics and Tag Manager introduces moderate user tracking without explicit consent mechanisms, raising privacy concerns. No vulnerabilities or malware indicators were found in the provided data. Compliance gaps include missing privacy and cookie policies and absence of GDPR compliance indicators. Incident response readiness is unclear due to lack of contact information. Overall, the security posture is functional but requires enhancements to meet best practices and regulatory standards.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and integrity.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to address compliance requirements.
  3. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Provide clear contact information including security incident response channels.
  5. Review and minimize user tracking or implement explicit consent mechanisms to improve privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a minimalistic technical stack with Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking, and Google Fonts for typography. No CMS or major frameworks are detected, indicating a custom or lightweight implementation. Hosting is managed by Njalla, as inferred from nameservers. Performance is moderate with basic mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO optimization is basic with minimal meta tags and no structured data. The form for file upload uses secure POST method with multipart encoding. There is no evidence of advanced technical debt or modernization needs, but security and compliance technical implementations require improvement.
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.
