73/ 100Needs work

On October 28, 2026 the Site Spider crawled 693 pages and 1156 assets of specim.com, starting from https://specim.com/. It scored 73 out of 100, a result that needs work. 12 of 33 checks found something to fix, led by heavy assets (165), meta descriptions (447), title tags (323); 7 checks passed. Most of the points went to heavy assets (−6), meta descriptions (−5.8), title tags (−5.2). 14 checks found something the score does not count, listed as noted. 4 checks were not run because the crawl fetched nothing for them. The list below shows each check's result, the fix plan, when present, explains what to do first, and the security review at the end of the page covers headers, transport, libraries and exposed files.

Security review

Written by gpt-4o-mini from 16 checks over the crawl

Your website has several security enhancements to implement, most notably, lack of Strict Transport Security, Content Security Policy, and Clickjacking protection. Addressing these issues will help protect your visitors and data integrity.

  • 0 high
  • 3 medium
  • 3 low
  • 2 info
  1. 1

    Missing HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)Medium

    Why it matters: Without HSTS, users can be intercepted when accessing your site without HTTPS.

    Fix: Add the header: Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains

    Evidence: HTTP Strict Transport Security

  2. 2

    Missing Content Security Policy (CSP)Medium

    Why it matters: Lack of CSP allows potentially unsafe resources to be loaded, heightening risk of XSS attacks.

    Fix: Add the header: Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self';

    Evidence: Content Security Policy

  3. 3

    Missing X-Frame-Options HeaderMedium

    Why it matters: Absence of this header leaves your site vulnerable to clickjacking attacks.

    Fix: Add the header: X-Frame-Options: DENY

    Evidence: Clickjacking protection

  4. 4

    Missing X-Content-Type-Options HeaderLow

    Why it matters: Without this header, the browser might misuse file content types.

    Fix: Add the header: X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff

    Evidence: MIME sniffing protection

  5. 5

    Missing Referrer-Policy HeaderLow

    Why it matters: Not having this header exposes full URLs of pages visited to external sites.

    Fix: Add the header: Referrer-Policy: no-referrer

    Evidence: Referrer policy

  6. 6

    Third-Party Scripts without Subresource Integrity (SRI)Low

    Why it matters: If third-party scripts are compromised, they can alter functionality on your site.

    Fix: Implement a CSP that allows only trusted sources or add SRI for critical scripts.

    Evidence: Third-party scripts

  7. 7

    Missing Permissions-Policy HeaderInfo

    Why it matters: This header limits access to potentially sensitive browser features.

    Fix: Add the header: Permissions-Policy: geolocation=(self)

    Evidence: Permissions policy

  8. 8

    Sensitive Paths Listed in robots.txtInfo

    Why it matters: Exposed paths can lead to probing attacks; they should be protected by access controls.

    Fix: Ensure sensitive paths are properly secured instead of relying on robots.txt.

    Evidence: Sensitive paths in robots.txt

  • NoteThird-party scripts

    Scripts run from 4 other domains without Subresource Integrity, so a compromise of any of them changes what runs on this site. (Tag managers and analytics rarely support SRI; a Content-Security-Policy that names these hosts is the usual control.)

    • web103.reachmee.com (1 script tag)
    • www.google.com (1 script tag)
  • NoteSensitive paths in robots.txt

    robots.txt lists 1 path that look private. robots.txt is public and does not restrict access, so it doubles as a map for anyone probing the site; those paths need real access control.

    • Disallow: /wp-admin/
7 checks passed, 1 not applicable
  • OKHTTPS

    All 619 crawled pages were served over HTTPS.

  • OKSoftware version disclosure

    No Server or X-Powered-By header is sent.

  • OKMixed content

    No HTTPS page loads a script, stylesheet, font or image over plain HTTP.

  • OKForms over HTTPS

    39 forms found, all on HTTPS pages posting to HTTPS addresses.

  • OKVulnerable JavaScript libraries

    1 library version recognised, none with known vulnerabilities.

  • OKKeys and secrets in page code

    No API keys, tokens or private keys were found in the sampled HTML and scripts.

  • OKExposed files and listings

    None of the crawled URLs is a configuration file, backup, dump, repository folder or directory listing.

  • Not applicableCookie flags

    The crawl set no cookies, so there are no cookie flags to check.
