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

VPSDime is a specialized VPS hosting provider established in 2013, offering affordable and high-performance virtual private servers primarily targeting developers, startups, and enterprises seeking cost-effective cloud infrastructure. The company operates multiple datacenters across the United States and Europe, providing Linux, Windows, Premium, and Storage VPS plans with scalable resources and optional nightly backups. Their business model is subscription-based with transparent monthly billing and a strong emphasis on customer support and service reliability. Technically, the website is built on a modern stack including Bootstrap and jQuery, with integration of Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking. The hosting infrastructure leverages enterprise-grade Dell servers with SSD storage and virtualization technologies such as Virtuozzo, KVM/qemu, and Hyper-V. The site is mobile-optimized, fast-loading, and well-structured for SEO and accessibility. From a security perspective, VPSDime employs HTTPS and offers dedicated IPs, with a 99.9% network uptime SLA and 99.99% power uptime SLA. However, the site lacks explicit security headers and a published security policy or vulnerability disclosure program. Incident response contact is provided via an abuse email. The domain registration is consistent with the business claims, showing a long-standing presence and legitimacy. Overall, VPSDime presents a trustworthy and professional online presence with strong business credibility and technical maturity. Security posture is solid but could be enhanced by adopting additional best practices such as DNSSEC, security.txt, and explicit security headers. Privacy compliance is well addressed with GDPR-aligned policies and cookie consent mechanisms.

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

3 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 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  3. 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

Business profile

VPSDime occupies a niche in the VPS hosting market by offering affordable yet high-quality virtual servers with a focus on performance and customer care. Their competitive advantages include owned hardware, in-house virtualization software, and direct support from experienced system administrators. Revenue streams are primarily from VPS subscriptions and add-ons like additional IPs and backups. The target customer segments range from individual developers to enterprises requiring scalable VPS solutions. The company demonstrates growth through multiple datacenter locations and a long operational history since 2013. Their affiliate program and transparent billing foster customer loyalty and marketing reach. Strategic observations highlight a strong emphasis on reliability, customer satisfaction, and cost-effectiveness, positioning VPSDime as a credible alternative to larger VPS providers.

Security posture

VPSDime exhibits a mature security posture with encrypted communications (HTTPS), dedicated IPs, and redundancy in power and network infrastructure. The company provides a 99.9% network uptime SLA and 99.99% power uptime SLA, indicating robust operational security. Incident response is facilitated via a dedicated abuse email. However, the absence of published security policies, vulnerability disclosure programs, and security.txt files represents a compliance gap. The website does not explicitly implement or report common HTTP security headers, which could improve protection against common web attacks. Data protection practices align with GDPR, and customer data is only accessed with consent or legal orders. Overall, the security culture is proactive but could benefit from formalizing and publishing additional security controls and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a security.txt file and a dedicated security policy page to facilitate vulnerability reporting and transparency.
  3. Implement and configure HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Enhance visibility of data protection officer or privacy contact to strengthen GDPR compliance signals.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Overall, the technical implementation supports a reliable and scalable VPS hosting service.
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.
