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

Nameshift.com operates a domain name marketplace and escrow service designed to facilitate safe and fast domain transfers without additional fees to buyers. The company targets individuals and businesses seeking secure domain acquisition with escrow protection. The website is built using modern web technologies such as SvelteKit and serves content via a CDN, indicating a contemporary technical infrastructure. However, the site currently shows mostly placeholder content, suggesting it may be under development or loading dynamically. From a security perspective, the website uses HTTPS for asset delivery but lacks visible security headers and formal security policies. There are no privacy or cookie policies, and no contact emails or phone numbers are provided, which limits transparency and user trust. The domain is very recently registered in May 2024, which may be appropriate for a new business but reduces historical trust indicators. The footer provides company registration and VAT details consistent with a Dutch entity. Overall, the website presents a basic but functional domain purchase service with escrow, but it lacks comprehensive privacy, security, and contact information. The technical implementation is modern but could benefit from improved accessibility, SEO, and security best practices. The risk level is moderate due to the new domain age and limited transparency. Strategic recommendations include adding privacy and cookie policies, publishing security and incident response information, providing clear contact channels, and enhancing content completeness and accessibility to improve trust and compliance.

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. 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

Nameshift.com occupies a niche in the domain marketplace sector, offering escrow-backed domain transfers to reduce buyer risk. Its business model relies on commissions paid by sellers, with buyers benefiting from free services such as domain transfer assistance and VAT invoicing. The company targets a broad audience of domain buyers, including individuals and businesses. The recent domain registration suggests a startup or new service launch. The company leverages a CDN and modern frontend frameworks to deliver its service efficiently. The presence of company registration and VAT numbers in the footer indicates formal business registration in the Netherlands. The lack of extensive marketing or analytics tools suggests a focus on organic growth or a minimal digital marketing approach at this stage.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS usage implied by asset URLs but lacks explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, or X-Frame-Options. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are published, and no security contact emails are provided. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates potential GDPR compliance gaps. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The security score is moderate but could be improved by implementing standard security headers, publishing policies, and providing clear security contact channels. The new domain age and minimal transparency slightly increase risk from a security perspective.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement and configure security headers such as CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance security posture.
  3. Add visible contact information including support and security incident response emails and phone numbers.
  4. Enhance website content completeness and accessibility to improve user experience and SEO.
  5. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses SvelteKit as its frontend framework, delivering assets via a dedicated CDN (cdn.buy.nameshift.com). The use of modulepreload and modern JavaScript modules indicates a contemporary frontend architecture. CSS and font assets are loaded efficiently. The site appears mobile optimized with responsive design elements. However, the visible content is mostly placeholder animations, suggesting incomplete content or loading states. No CMS or backend platform is explicitly detected. No analytics or tracking scripts were found, indicating minimal data collection. Performance is moderate based on asset loading patterns. Accessibility features are basic, with some semantic HTML but no ARIA landmarks or advanced accessibility aids detected.
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.
