Security checks
Each check inspects a different part of backerkit.com's public security setup. Green means healthy, yellow needs attention, red is a problem.
HSTS Header
HSTS present but max-age is low (0s). Recommended minimum: 15768000 (6 months).
Security Headers
3/5 security headers present. Missing: CSP, Permissions-Policy.
Certificate Hygiene
Strengths: Certificate valid, 67 days remaining; Issued by Google Trust Services. Issues: Wildcard certificate in use — broader attack surface if compromised.
DNS Configuration
Strengths: 2 nameservers configured (clint.ns.cloudflare.com., emma.ns.cloudflare.com.); 5 MX records present; DNSSEC enabled; Zone transfers properly restricted.
Known Breaches
No known breaches found in public disclosure databases.
TLS Configuration
TLSv1.3 negotiated with TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 (256-bit). Strong configuration with no deprecated protocols or weak ciphers detected.
DMARC / Email Security
Strengths: DMARC policy set to reject (strongest); SPF record present with soft-fail (~all); DKIM configured (selectors: google, k1).
CVE Exposure
Detected technologies: cloudflare, Phusion Passenger(R) Enterprise 6.1.2, Proxy/CDN. (cloudflare, Proxy/CDN detected but excluded from CVE matching — upstream infrastructure). No version information exposed — CVE matching not possible (this is good practice).

Steps to improve backerkit.com's security grade, ranked by impact.
1
Increase HSTS max-age duration
HSTS is enabled but the max-age (0s) is below the recommended minimum of 15768000s (6 months). A short max-age means browsers forget the HTTPS-only policy quickly, reducing protection between visits.
Compliance impact
PCI-DSS 4.0Req 6.4.1
Application security header configuration
How to fix this
1
Update header: Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload
2
Verify: curl -sI https://backerkit.com | grep -i strict

2
Add optional security headers (CSP, Permissions-Policy)
backerkit.com has most security headers configured. Missing: CSP, Permissions-Policy. These are best-practice additions that reduce the attack surface for client-side vulnerabilities.
How to fix this
1
Add Content-Security-Policy header (start with report-only to avoid breakage)
2
Add: Permissions-Policy: camera=(), microphone=(), geolocation=()
3
Verify with: curl -sI https://backerkit.com | grep -iE 'content-security|x-frame|x-content|referrer|permissions'
3
Review certificate configuration
Certificate issues found for backerkit.com: wildcard certificate in use. Wildcard certificates have a broader blast radius if compromised. These are operational hygiene items, not immediate security risks.
How to fix this
1
Consider replacing wildcard cert with individual certs for critical subdomains
2
Consolidate certificate issuance to 1–2 trusted CAs
