Low risk. 2 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view.
USAJOBS is the official employment website of the United States federal government, operated under the United States Office of Personnel Management. It serves as the primary platform for federal job seekers to search, apply, and manage applications for government positions. The site offers specialized hiring paths for veterans, students, federal employees, and individuals with disabilities, reflecting a comprehensive approach to inclusive federal recruitment. The platform is well-branded, consistent, and trusted, leveraging the .gov domain and official government logos to establish authority. Technically, the website employs modern JavaScript frameworks including HTMX and integrates Google Tag Manager and DigitalGov analytics for performance and user behavior tracking. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and designed with user experience in mind, featuring clear navigation and responsive design. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in loading speed and security header implementation. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and secure form practices, including session timeout warnings. However, it lacks explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and cookie consent mechanisms, which are recommended for enhanced security and privacy compliance. The absence of public security policy or incident response contact details is noted, though the official nature of the site mitigates some concerns. Overall, USAJOBS demonstrates a strong security posture and high business credibility consistent with a federal government service. Strategic improvements in security headers, privacy consent, and transparency around security policies would further strengthen its trustworthiness and compliance posture.

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.
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.

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.
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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.
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.
