Security checks

Each check inspects a different part of bca.gov.sg's public security setup. Green means healthy, yellow needs attention, red is a problem.

Security Headers
Only 1/5 security headers present. Missing: CSP, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy. This exposes the application to clickjacking, MIME-sniffing, and other client-side attacks.
Problem
TLS Configuration
TLSv1.3 negotiated with TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 (256-bit). Strong configuration with no deprecated protocols or weak ciphers detected.
Healthy
HSTS Header
HSTS enabled: max-age=31536000. includeSubDomains present. Missing preload directive.
Healthy
DNS Configuration
Strengths: 12 nameservers configured (a1-6.akam.net., ns10.gdnsdef.com., ns12.gdnsec.com., ns12.gdnsdef.com.); 4 MX records present; DNSSEC enabled; Zone transfers properly restricted.
Healthy
CVE Exposure
Detected technologies: DOSarrest. No version information exposed — CVE matching not possible (this is good practice).
Healthy
DMARC / Email Security
Strengths: DMARC policy set to reject (strongest); SPF record present with hard-fail (-all); DKIM configured (selectors: s1, s2).
Healthy
Known Breaches
No known breaches found in public disclosure databases.
Healthy

Steps to improve bca.gov.sg's security grade, ranked by impact.

1
Add missing security headers (CSP, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy)
Impact: 1–2 Hours
HIGH
4 of 5 recommended security headers are missing on bca.gov.sg: CSP, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy. These headers protect against clickjacking, MIME-sniffing, and unauthorized browser feature access. Adding them is a server configuration change with no application code changes required.
Compliance impact
PCI-DSS 4.0Req 6.4.1
Security headers are required application controls

How to fix this
1
Add Content-Security-Policy header (start with report-only to avoid breakage)
2
Add: X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
3
Add: Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin
4
Add: Permissions-Policy: camera=(), microphone=(), geolocation=()
5
Verify with: curl -sI https://bca.gov.sg | grep -iE 'content-security|x-frame|x-content|referrer|permissions'
