Website Security

Boyd
failed icon
CSP is not implemented
No valid Content Security Policy is implemented. This increases the risk of XSS and clickjacking attacks.
failed icon
Unmaintained page detected
This domain appears to be unmaintained based on indicators like page content or status code. Unmaintained pages expand the attack surface for malicious actors.
passed icon
Secure cookies used
Using secure cookies reduces the risk of third parties intercepting information contained in these cookies.
passed icon
Server information header not exposed
Ensuring the server information header is not exposed reduces the ability of attackers to exploit certain vulnerabilities.
passed icon
X-Powered-By header not exposed
Information about specific technology used on the server is obscured.
passed icon
X-Frame-Options configured to prevent clickjacking
Browsers are prevented from displaying this website's content in frames. This helps mitigate clickjacking attacks.
passed icon
HttpOnly cookies used
Using HttpOnly cookies reduces the risk of client side script attacks, by preventing cookies being read on the client.
passed icon
Referrer policy is not unsafe-url
The website's Referrer Policy is not configured to allow unsafe information to be sent in the referrer header.
passed icon
ASP.NET version header not exposing specific ASP.net version
Ensuring the ASP.NET version header is not exposing a specific version makes it harder for attackers to exploit certain vulnerabilities.
passed icon
ASP.NET version header not exposed
Ensuring the ASP.NET version header is not exposed makes it harder for attackers to exploit certain vulnerabilities.
passed icon

Email

Boyd
failed icon
DMARC policy is p=none
DMARC policy is p=none. This provides no protection against fraudulent emails. The DMARC policy should be migrated to p=quarantine, and eventually p=reject.
failed icon
SPF policy uses ~all
Sender Policy Framework (SPF) record is too lenient as to which domains are allowed to send email on the domain's behalf. This record should preferably not use the ~all mechanism, as this does not instruct the mail receiver to reject messages from unauthorised sources. When DMARC is not being enforced, -all should be used on the SPF record.
passed icon
DMARC policy exists
DMARC protects against fraudulent emails being sent from a domain.
passed icon
SPF enabled
Sender Policy Framework (SPF) records prevent spammers from sending messages with forged addresses.
passed icon
SPF syntax correct

passed icon
SPF ptr mechanism not used
Sender Policy Framework (SPF) record does not include the ptr mechanism.
Placeholder icon
