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

香哈网 is a prominent Chinese online platform specializing in food recipes, cooking tutorials, and a vibrant community for food enthusiasts. The website offers a comprehensive database of recipes with images and videos, fostering user engagement through community sharing features. Additionally, it integrates an e-commerce platform (香哈商城) to complement its content services, positioning itself as a leading player in the Chinese culinary digital space. Technically, the site employs a modern tech stack including jQuery, Video.js, and analytics tools such as Baidu Analytics and Tencent GDT for advertising and tracking. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and rich content. Security-wise, the website enforces HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data, but lacks some security headers and explicit cookie consent mechanisms, which are areas for improvement. The absence of WHOIS data reduces transparency but does not significantly detract from the site's legitimacy given its active content and ICP registration. Overall, 香哈网 presents a mature digital presence with moderate security posture and good business credibility.

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

The platform targets general consumers interested in cooking and food, leveraging a content-driven community model supplemented by e-commerce. Its market position is strong within China, supported by a large recipe database and active user contributions. Revenue streams likely include advertising and sales via the integrated mall. The site demonstrates consistent branding and professional content quality. Partnerships include the linked e-commerce domain mall.xiangha.com. Growth indicators include frequent content updates and active community engagement. The business model focuses on content monetization and community building, with potential for expansion in digital food services.

Security posture

The website maintains a baseline security posture with HTTPS and no visible sensitive data leaks. However, it lacks advanced security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could mitigate common web attacks. No public incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are found, indicating limited transparency in security management. The use of multiple third-party analytics and advertising scripts introduces moderate tracking and potential privacy concerns. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be enhanced by adopting best practices and compliance frameworks.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  2. Introduce a clear cookie consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations and improve user trust.
  3. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting and transparency.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users.
  5. Increase transparency by providing clear contact information and business registration details on the website.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of legacy and modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Video.js, supporting rich media content including HLS video streaming. Analytics and advertising are integrated via Baidu Analytics, Tencent GDT, and Alibaba Retcode, indicating a mature marketing infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design elements and lazy loading for images, contributing to moderate performance. However, no CMS or hosting provider information is explicitly detected. The technical stack is stable but could benefit from modernization and improved security configurations to reduce risk and enhance performance.
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.
