Security score

63/100

Risk levelMedium

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

The domain tpn.co.za is registered with Afrihost since 2000 and is associated with South Africa. However, the website content is currently inaccessible, returning a standard HTTP 404 Not Found error page with no metadata, structured data, or business information. This indicates the site is either down, under maintenance, or abandoned. The lack of any privacy, cookie, or terms of service policies further suggests the site is not operational. Technically, the domain uses basic SSL and DNS configurations but lacks DNSSEC and security headers, which are recommended for improved security posture. No tracking or advertising technologies are detected, and no contact or social media information is available. Overall, the website's digital maturity is low, and the security posture is minimal with room for significant improvement.

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

7 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 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';…
  2. 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

    • 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

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

Due to the absence of website content, no meaningful business intelligence can be derived. The domain age and registrar information suggest a legitimate registration, but the lack of active content or contact details prevents assessment of market positioning, business model, or services. No partnerships or subsidiaries are identified. The domain appears to be underutilized or inactive at this time.

Security posture

The security posture is weak, with no security headers detected and DNSSEC not enabled. The site uses HTTPS but no advanced security best practices are observed. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is available. The domain registration is transparent and consistent, which is a positive trust factor. Overall, the site is vulnerable to common web security risks due to minimal protections.

Recommendations

  1. Restore website content to provide meaningful business information and user engagement.
  2. Implement and publish privacy, cookie, and terms of service policies to improve compliance.
  3. Enable DNSSEC and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Add contact information and incident response channels to enhance trust and security readiness.
  5. Conduct a security audit to identify and remediate vulnerabilities and improve overall security posture.

  2. No metadata, structured data, or meaningful content found.
  3. No contact information, policies, or business details available on the site.
  4. Domain WHOIS data is valid and consistent but website content is missing.

Technical notes

Notes

The website currently serves only a 404 error page with minimal HTML content and no metadata or structured data. No CMS or frameworks are detected. Hosting is provided by Afrihost, a reputable South African provider. The site lacks mobile optimization and accessibility features. Performance is moderate due to minimal content but user experience is poor due to lack of navigation and content. The technical infrastructure is basic and requires modernization and content restoration to meet current web standards.
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.
