## Security

### Security Headers (B — 70/100)

*6 of 10 headers properly configured*

- **[PASS]** Strict-Transport-Security is properly configured (consider adding preload)
- **[PASS]** X-Content-Type-Options is properly configured
- **[PASS]** X-Frame-Options is properly configured
- **[PASS]** Referrer-Policy is properly configured
- **[WARNING]** Permissions-Policy header is missing — Controls which browser features (camera, microphone, geolocation) are allowed. Set it to restrict unused features.
- **[PASS]** Content-Security-Policy is present
- **[WARNING]** Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy header is missing — COOP isolates your browsing context, preventing cross-origin side-channel attacks. Set to 'same-origin'.
- **[WARNING]** Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy header is missing — COEP prevents loading cross-origin resources without explicit permission. Required for SharedArrayBuffer and high-resolution timers.
- **[WARNING]** X-Powered-By header reveals technology stack — This header discloses server technology (e.g. Express, PHP), helping attackers target known vulnerabilities. Remove it.
- **[PASS]** Server header is present without version info
- **[INFO]** Domain is not in the Chrome HSTS preload list (status: unknown) — Submit your domain to hstspreload.org to close the trust-on-first-use gap. Requires a preload-ready HSTS header (max-age=31536000+, includeSubDomains, preload).

### Content Security Policy (C — 55/100)

*6 of 10 CSP checks passed*

- **[INFO]** Raw CSP policy
- **[PASS]** default-src directive is set
- **[CRITICAL]** 'unsafe-inline' found in script source — 'unsafe-inline' allows inline <script> tags, defeating CSP against XSS. Remove it and use nonces or hashes instead.
- **[CRITICAL]** 'unsafe-eval' found in script source — 'unsafe-eval' allows eval() and similar functions, enabling code injection. Remove it.
- **[PASS]** No wildcard in script source
- **[PASS]** object-src is set to 'none'
- **[PASS]** base-uri is properly restricted
- **[PASS]** frame-ancestors directive is set
- **[PASS]** form-action directive is set
- **[INFO]** upgrade-insecure-requests is not set — This directive upgrades HTTP resources to HTTPS automatically, preventing mixed content.

### TLS & Certificates (A+ — 100/100)

*TLS 1.3, 8 checks passed*

- **[PASS]** TLS 1.3 is used
- **[PASS]** Strong cipher suite is used
- **[PASS]** HTTP/2 is negotiated
- **[INFO]** OCSP stapling not enabled — Without stapling, the browser performs a separate OCSP roundtrip on first connection -- adding latency and leaking the visited host to the CA. Enable OCSP stapling on your TLS server.
- **[PASS]** Certificate is valid (expires in 84 days)
- **[PASS]** Certificate chain has 3 certificates
- **[PASS]** Certificate uses modern signature algorithm
- **[PASS]** Certificate covers 2 domain(s)
- **[PASS]** Certificate is issued by a trusted CA

### Cookie Security (A+ — 100/100)

*No cookies set — no cookie security risks*

- **[PASS]** No cookies set — no cookie security risks

### Cookie Hygiene (A+ — 100/100)

*No cookies set -- cookie-hygiene check is N/A*

- **[PASS]** No cookies set

### WAF / Bot Protection (A — 90/100)

*Cloudflare*

- **[PASS]** Cloudflare detected — Detected via: cf-ray: a31b47387c7b456e-SJC

### security.txt (B — 70/100)

*Vulnerability disclosure policy*

- **[PASS]** security.txt found
- **[WARNING]** security.txt: Missing required 'Contact' field
- **[WARNING]** security.txt: Missing required 'Expires' field (RFC 9116)

### Cross-Origin Tab Safety (A+ — 100/100)

*No new-tab links found -- no tabnabbing surface*

- **[PASS]** No new-tab links present

### CSP Inline-Style Readiness (B — 90/100)

*7 inline style attribute(s) detected*

- **[INFO]** 7 inline style attribute(s) detected — Each `style=""` attribute forces `style-src 'unsafe-inline'` in any Content-Security-Policy, which negates most of CSP's XSS-mitigation value. 7 inline style(s) is low. Affected element types include: span, select, div. Move styles to a stylesheet; use CSS custom properties for runtime-dynamic values; or adopt a nonce/hash CSP policy. Most teams take the stylesheet path because it's also a maintainability win.

### Trusted Types (XSS Sink Hardening) (B — 95/100)

*Trusted Types not enabled*

- **[INFO]** Trusted Types not enabled — Trusted Types (CSP3) is a Chrome 83+ defense that requires DOM-XSS sinks (innerHTML, document.write, eval, ...) to receive a typed-and-sanitized value rather than a raw string. Adding `Content-Security-Policy: require-trusted-types-for 'script'; trusted-types default` neutralizes most DOM-XSS even when a payload reaches a sink. Adoption is currently ~0.1% of pages so this is informational; a roll-out usually starts in report-only mode.

### Bot Challenge Detection (A+ — 100/100)

*Scan reached real page content (no bot-protection interstitial)*

- **[PASS]** No bot-protection interstitial detected -- the rest of the report reflects the real page

### Soft-404 Detection (A+ — 100/100)

*No soft-404 patterns detected in page title or headings*

- **[PASS]** No soft-404 patterns detected in page title or headings

### Empty Page Detection (A+ — 100/100)

*Page has substantive body text and no placeholder / template-leak signals*

- **[PASS]** Page has substantive body text and no placeholder / template-leak signals

### Geo-Restriction Detection (A+ — 100/100)

*No geo-restriction signals detected -- scan reached the page from an allowed region*

- **[PASS]** No geo-restriction detected

### Maintenance Mode Detection (A+ — 100/100)

*No maintenance-mode signals detected -- scan reached a normal page*

- **[PASS]** No maintenance-mode signals detected

### Subresource Integrity Adoption (A+ — 100/100)

*100% SRI adoption (1/1 third-party resources)*

- **[PASS]** SRI adoption: 1/1 third-party resources protected (100%) — Of 1 third-party `<script>` / `<link rel=stylesheet>` resources, 1 (100%) declare a Subresource Integrity hash via the `integrity=` attribute. SRI binds the page to the exact bytes of the third-party resource: if the CDN is compromised, attacker-modified bytes won't match the declared hash and the browser refuses to execute the resource.

Fix: add `integrity="sha384-..."` and `crossorigin="anonymous"` attributes. Generators: srihash.org, or in-browser via `await crypto.subtle.digest('SHA-384', bytes)`. Cache-bust the resource URL when you change versions, since the integrity hash will mismatch with old cached bytes.

### CORS Depth (A+ — 100/100)

*No CORS response headers -- the resource is same-origin-only by browser default*

- **[PASS]** No CORS response headers -- the resource is same-origin-only by browser default

### Permissions-Policy Granularity (C — 60/100)

*No Permissions-Policy header set -- powerful features (camera / microphone / geolocation / payment / USB) default to allow-on-same-origin*

- **[WARNING]** Permissions-Policy header not set -- features default to allow-on-same-origin — Without a `Permissions-Policy` (or legacy `Feature-Policy`) header, every powerful browser feature defaults to its spec default policy (typically `self`). A third-party iframe injected via XSS or a misconfigured embed can still request access to the user's camera, microphone, geolocation, payment APIs, USB devices, etc. Explicitly deny features the page doesn't need:

```
Permissions-Policy: camera=(), microphone=(), geolocation=(), payment=(), usb=(), accelerometer=(), gyroscope=()
```

Features the page legitimately uses can stay enabled with `feature=(self)`.

### Referrer-Policy Strictness (A+ — 100/100)

*Referrer-Policy is `strict-origin-when-cross-origin` (modern default -- full URL same-origin, origin-only cross-origin)*

- **[PASS]** Referrer-Policy: `strict-origin-when-cross-origin` -- modern default -- full URL same-origin, origin-only cross-origin — The modern browser default (Chrome 85+, Firefox 87+, Safari 15+). Full URL Referer on same-origin; origin only on cross-origin; no Referer on HTTPS-to-HTTP downgrade. Privacy-safe and breaks no analytics. The recommended explicit value.

### Source Map Exposure (A+ — 100/100)

*No source maps accessible (probed 10 candidate URL(s))*

- **[PASS]** No source maps accessible across 10 probed candidate(s)

### HTML Version Disclosure (A+ — 100/100)

*No software-version disclosures in HTML*

- **[PASS]** No software-version disclosures in HTML

### Open Redirect Surface (A+ — 100/100)

*No redirect-shaped query parameters in DOM links*

- **[PASS]** No redirect-shaped query parameters in DOM links

### Auth Security (A+ — 100/100)

*Page is not a login form -- auth-security checks are N/A*

- **[PASS]** Page does not appear to be a login form

### Subdomain Inventory Exposure (A+ — 100/100)

*No risky subdomain names in certificate SANs*

- **[PASS]** No risky subdomain names in certificate SANs

---

## Advanced Security

### Subresource Integrity (A+ — 100/100)

*1 of 1 external resources have SRI*

- **[PASS]** script from static.cloudflareinsights.com has SRI protection

### JS Library Vulnerabilities (A+ — 100/100)

*No known vulnerabilities*

- **[PASS]** No known JavaScript library vulnerabilities detected

### Information Leakage (A+ — 100/100)

*No exposures*

- **[INFO]** No security.txt found — Consider adding a security.txt at /.well-known/security.txt.
- **[PASS]** No sensitive files exposed

### Email Security (F — 0/100)

*no DMARC, no SPF*

- **[WARNING]** No DMARC record found — Without DMARC, email receivers have no policy for handling authentication failures. Add a TXT record at _dmarc.<domain> starting with v=DMARC1.
- **[WARNING]** No SPF record found — Without SPF (Sender Policy Framework), receivers can't tell which servers are authorized to send mail for your domain. Add a TXT record at the apex starting with v=spf1, ending in -all.
- **[INFO]** No DKIM detected via common selectors — DKIM signs outbound mail to prove origin. We probed common selectors (default, google, selector1, etc.) without finding a record. If you use a non-standard selector, this is a false negative.
- **[INFO]** MTA-STS not configured — MTA-STS forces inbound mail to use TLS, preventing downgrade attacks. Requires both a TXT record at _mta-sts.<domain> and a policy file at https://mta-sts.<domain>/.well-known/mta-sts.txt.
- **[INFO]** TLS-RPT not configured — TLS-RPT (RFC 8460) lets MTAs report TLS-handshake failures, so you can detect and fix MTA-STS misconfigurations. Add a TXT record at _smtp._tls.<domain>.
- **[INFO]** BIMI not configured — BIMI (Brand Indicators for Message Identification) lets supporting clients (Gmail, Apple Mail, Yahoo) display your verified logo next to your messages. Optional but raises trust signals. Requires DMARC at p=quarantine or p=reject to be honored.

### API Surface (A+ — 100/100)

*No API specs or GraphQL introspection found (probed 11 candidate path(s))*

- **[PASS]** No API specs or GraphQL introspection found (probed 11 path(s))

### Permissions-Policy (D — 40/100)

*No header set*

- **[WARNING]** No Permissions-Policy header — Consider adding a Permissions-Policy header to restrict browser feature access from embedded content.

### CORS Configuration (B — 80/100)

*No CORS headers*

- **[PASS]** No CORS headers present — secure default

- **[INFO]** https://costdown.org/_next/static/chunks/8009-265e...: 131ms CPU time

### Font Loading (A+ — 100/100)

*6 fonts (217 KB)*

- **[INFO]** 6 font(s) use font-display: swap (FOUT risk but functional)

### JS Bundles (A+ — 100/100)

*11 scripts, 0 KB unused*


### Resource Caching (A+ — 100/100)

*All resources properly cached*

- **[PASS]** No caching issues found

### Critical Rendering Path (A+ — 100/100)

*No render-blocking resources*

- **[PASS]** No render-blocking resources detected

### Resource Hints (A+ — 100/100)

*5 hints, 0 missing preconnects*

- **[PASS]** Page uses 5 resource hint(s)

### HTTP/3 (QUIC) (A+ — 100/100)

*HTTP/3 advertised via Alt-Svc*

- **[PASS]** HTTP/3 (QUIC) is supported — First-load mobile users on cellular networks see meaningful latency improvements with HTTP/3. The QUIC transport collapses TLS + TCP handshakes into one and recovers faster from packet loss.

### Compression Algorithm (A+ — 100/100)

*Main response uses brotli*

- **[PASS]** Main HTML response uses brotli (Content-Encoding: br) — Brotli is the best text-compression algorithm for general use, ~20% smaller than gzip on average (40% on smaller files). Modern browsers all support it.

### LCP Image Preload (A+ — 100/100)

*LCP preload audit not available*

- **[PASS]** LCP image preload audit not available for this scan

### Main HTML Cache-Control (A+ — 100/100)

*Main HTML uses no-store -- correct for sensitive/dynamic content*

- **[PASS]** Main HTML uses no-store -- correct for sensitive/dynamic content

### Server-Timing Observability (A+ — 100/100)

*3 Server-Timing entries advertised*

- **[PASS]** Server-Timing header advertises 3 timing entries

### Server Response Intelligence (A+ — 95/100)

*2 server-response signal(s) detected*

- **[PASS]** `Vary` header declared: rsc, next-router-state-tree, next-router-prefetch, next-router-segment-prefetch,... — The page declares a `Vary` header, telling downstream caches which request headers the response varies on. Critical for content-negotiated responses (compression, language, cookies, device class).
- **[INFO]** No `ETag` or `Last-Modified` -- conditional GET not supported — Without either header, browsers can't issue conditional GETs and refresh always re-downloads the full response body even when nothing changed. Add `ETag: "<hash>"` (or `Last-Modified: <date>`) on cacheable responses; the server returns 304 Not Modified when the client's cached copy is still valid, saving bandwidth.

### Page Weight Inventory (A+ — 100/100)

*25 resources · 568 KB · 0 KB savings available*

- **[PASS]** Within 1MB page-weight target
- **[INFO]** 1 third-party resources (2% of weight)

### Render-Blocking Resources (A+ — 100/100)

*No render-blocking resources detected*

- **[PASS]** No render-blocking resources detected in <head>

### Third-Party Resources (A+ — 100/100)

*No third-party resources detected*


### JavaScript Blocking (A — 94/100)

*1 JS blocking issue(s) detected*

- **[WARNING]** 1 render-blocking <script src> tag(s) without async/defer — Each `<script src=...>` without `async`, `defer`, or `type="module"` blocks HTML parsing while the browser fetches and executes it. The block lasts the entire round-trip + execution time -- on slow networks this translates directly into LCP delay. Add `defer` (executes after parse, in source order) for scripts that interact with the DOM, or `async` (executes whenever ready) for analytics / independent scripts. Module scripts (`type="module"`) are deferred by default.

### CSS Performance Depth (A+ — 100/100)

*No CSS performance depth issues detected*

- **[PASS]** No CSS performance depth issues detected

---

## Content Quality

### Links (A+ — 100/100)

*43 links checked, 43 healthy, 0 broken*

- **[PASS]** 43 of 43 links are healthy

### Mixed Content (A+ — 100/100)

*No mixed content detected — all resources use HTTPS.*

- **[PASS]** No mixed content detected — all resources use HTTPS

### Open Graph (F — 0/100)

*No Open Graph tags found — social sharing previews will be generic.*

- **[WARNING]** No Open Graph meta tags found — Without og:title, og:description, and og:image, social media platforms will generate a generic preview when your page is shared.

### Open Graph / Twitter Card Depth (A+ — 100/100)

*No OG image or Twitter card set -- depth check is N/A (presence covered by Open Graph section)*

- **[PASS]** No OG image / Twitter card to evaluate

### Structured Data (C — 40/100)

*No structured data (JSON-LD) found.*

- **[INFO]** No structured data (JSON-LD) found — Adding structured data helps search engines understand your content and can enable rich results.

### Rich Results Eligibility (C — 75/100)

*No JSON-LD found -- no rich-result eligibility*

- **[INFO]** No JSON-LD structured data on the page — No `<script type="application/ld+json">` blocks found. Without structured data, search engines fall back to inferring page meaning from raw HTML -- which works but doesn't unlock SERP features (rich snippets, knowledge panel, FAQ accordion, breadcrumb trail). Adding even basic JSON-LD (Organization for the site identity, BreadcrumbList for navigation context) is a low-effort SEO win.

### Image Optimization (B — 85/100)

*1 issues found across 1 images*

- **[WARNING]** All 1 images use legacy formats (JPEG/PNG/GIF) — WebP offers 25-35% smaller files than JPEG. Use <picture> with <source type="image/webp"> for modern format support.

### Autoplay Media (A+ — 100/100)

*No autoplay media on the page*

- **[PASS]** No autoplay media on the page

---

## Infrastructure

### DNS Records (A+ — 95/100)

*2 A records, 8 ms lookup*

- **[PASS]** Resolves to 2 IPv4 address(es)
- **[PASS]** Has 2 IPv6 (AAAA) record(s)
- **[PASS]** 2 nameserver(s) configured
- **[INFO]** No MX records — email not configured via DNS
- **[INFO]** No SPF record found in TXT records — SPF helps prevent email spoofing. Add a TXT record starting with 'v=spf1'.
- **[PASS]** DNS resolution time: 8 ms

### Subdomain Takeover (A+ — 100/100)

*No subdomain takeover risk detected*

- **[PASS]** No CNAME record present

### DNSSEC (B — 80/100)

*Unsigned (DNSSEC not deployed)*

- **[INFO]** DNSSEC is not deployed — The zone is not DNSSEC-signed. Users on validating resolvers (Cloudflare 1.1.1.1, Quad9 9.9.9.9, growing default in mobile resolvers) get no protection against DNS spoofing for this domain. Most registrars now offer DNSSEC at a single click; consider enabling it for sites where authenticity matters (banking, healthcare, government).

### CAA Records (B — 80/100)

*No CAA records (any CA may issue certificates)*

- **[INFO]** No CAA records published — Without CAA records, any publicly-trusted CA can issue certificates for this domain. Adding a CAA record (`yourdomain. IN CAA 0 issue "letsencrypt.org"`) restricts issuance to CAs you authorize. Required by CAB Forum baseline since 2017; the default of 'any CA' is widely supported but is the broader attack surface for issuance fraud.

### Reverse DNS (C — 60/100)

*0/4 IPs match cert SAN*

- **[INFO]** PTR lookup failed for 104.21.90.104: lookup 104.21.90.104: no such host — No reverse DNS record set for this IP. Common on bare cloud-VM IPs without provider-side PTR; not a security issue.
- **[INFO]** PTR lookup failed for 172.67.199.218: lookup 172.67.199.218: no such host — No reverse DNS record set for this IP. Common on bare cloud-VM IPs without provider-side PTR; not a security issue.
- **[INFO]** PTR lookup failed for 2606:4700:3033::ac43:c7da: lookup 2606:4700:3033::ac43:c7da: no such host — No reverse DNS record set for this IP. Common on bare cloud-VM IPs without provider-side PTR; not a security issue.
- **[INFO]** PTR lookup failed for 2606:4700:3037::6815:5a68: lookup 2606:4700:3037::6815:5a68: no such host — No reverse DNS record set for this IP. Common on bare cloud-VM IPs without provider-side PTR; not a security issue.

### Multi-Resolver DNS Speed (A+ — 100/100)

*Mean 14ms across 3 resolvers (spread 18ms)*

- **[PASS]** Cloudflare: 4ms
- **[PASS]** Google: 18ms
- **[PASS]** Quad9: 22ms

### Redirect Chain (A+ — 100/100)

*No redirects — direct access*

- **[PASS]** No redirects — direct access

### IPv6 Readiness (F — 30/100)

*IPv6 records exist but unreachable*

- **[WARNING]** IPv6 DNS records exist but server is not reachable — Having AAAA records but an unreachable server is worse than no AAAA — clients may experience delays before falling back to IPv4.
- **[INFO]** IPv6 connection error

### Crawlability (A+ — 100/100)

*robots.txt present, sitemap with 16 URLs*

- **[PASS]** robots.txt is present
- **[PASS]** sitemap.xml is present
- **[PASS]** sitemap.xml is valid XML
- **[PASS]** sitemap.xml contains 16 entries
- **[PASS]** robots.txt references sitemap

### URL Variants (B — 75/100)

*www/non-www, trailing slash, HTTP→HTTPS*

- **[CRITICAL]** Both www and non-www versions serve content
- **[PASS]** HTTP correctly redirects to HTTPS permanently

### Domain Intelligence (A+ — 100/100)

*costdown.org — via Cloudflare, Inc., 5 days old, hosted on Cloudflare*

- **[PASS]** Domain registered until Aug 22, 2027 (11 months remaining)
- **[INFO]** Domain is only 5 days old — Newly registered domains may face SEO trust challenges. Search engines generally give more authority to older domains. This is informational — not a problem to fix.
- **[INFO]** DNSSEC is not enabled — DNSSEC protects against DNS spoofing attacks. While not required, enabling DNSSEC adds an additional layer of security. Contact your DNS provider to enable it.
- **[PASS]** Registrar: Cloudflare, Inc.
- **[WARNING]** Registrar lock is NOT enabled — The domain can be transferred without an unlock step. Enable registrar lock (clientTransferProhibited) in your registrar's control panel to protect against unauthorized or accidental transfers.
- **[PASS]** Hosting: Cloudflare

- **[INFO]** CDN cache status: DYNAMIC

### HTTP Caching (D — 40/100)

*no-store (uncacheable)*

- **[INFO]** Cache-Control: no-store prevents all caching — Intentional for dynamic content, but increases server load for every page view.

### Operational Status Page (B — 80/100)

*No status page link detected*

- **[INFO]** No operational status page link detected — Status pages communicate planned maintenance and incidents to users -- a hallmark of operationally-mature services. Most SaaS teams publish one via Atlassian Statuspage, Instatus, BetterUptime, or a self-hosted Cachet. Smaller sites legitimately don't need one; flagged as Info, not a failure.

Marketing sites and small services often skip them legitimately; flagged as Info, not a failure. Probe results: /api/health: 404, /health: 404, /healthz: 404, /ping: 404, /status: 404.

### CDN Cache Observability (A+ — 100/100)

- **[PASS]** <main> landmark present

- **[PASS]** Single H1 present

### Heading Text Quality (A+ — 100/100)

*All 11 heading(s) have substantive, well-formed text*

### Alt Text Quality (A+ — 100/100)

*All 1 images OK*

- **[PASS]** 1 image(s) with good alt text

### Form Accessibility (D — 47/100)

*4 of 5 controls have issues*

- **[CRITICAL]** 3 control(s) without accessible label — Form controls need a <label>, aria-label, or aria-labelledby for screen readers.
- **[WARNING]** 1 control(s) rely on placeholder only — Placeholder text disappears on focus and is not a reliable label.
- **[PASS]** 1 control(s) properly labeled

### Link & Button Quality (A+ — 100/100)

*15 links, 3 buttons — all OK*

- **[PASS]** 15 link(s) with descriptive text

### Mobile-Readable Font Sizes (B — 90/100)

*95% of visible text renders at >= 12 CSS px (3 below threshold)*

- **[INFO]** 3 text node(s) render below 12 CSS pixels on mobile — Mobile browsers default the root font-size to 16 px; text below ~ 12 px (75% of root) is hard to read without zooming. WCAG 1.4.4 (Resize Text) requires the page to support 200% zoom without loss of functionality -- which most layouts handle, but small base text still costs readability and conversion. Audit which selectors set sizes below 12 px (often footers, fine print, table cells) and bump them to 14-16 px or use rem units that scale with user preferences. Examples: <div> 11.0px ("Discover"); <div> 11.0px ("Intelligence"); <div> 11.0px ("Workspace").

### Sitemap Freshness (C — 70/100)

*Sitemap exists but no <lastmod> entries*

- **[INFO]** Sitemap has no <lastmod> entries — Without lastmod, Google can't tell which URLs have changed since the last crawl -- it falls back to crawling everything periodically. Adding lastmod (date or ISO 8601 timestamp) on each <url> entry signals freshness so the crawler prioritizes recently-modified pages.
