Security checks

Each check inspects a different part of innov8.work's public security setup. Green means healthy, yellow needs attention, red is a problem.

DNS Configuration
Strengths: 4 nameservers configured (ns-908.awsdns-49.net., ns-1533.awsdns-63.org., ns-1736.awsdns-25.co.uk., ns-358.awsdns-44.com.); 1 MX records present; Zone transfers properly restricted. Issues: DNSSEC not configured — DNS responses can be spoofed.
Needs work
TLS Configuration
TLSv1.2 negotiated. Issues: TLS 1.2 negotiated (1.3 preferred).
Needs work
HSTS Header
HSTS present but max-age is low (15724800s). Recommended minimum: 15768000 (6 months).
Needs work
Security Headers
3/5 security headers present. Missing: X-Frame-Options, Permissions-Policy.
Needs work
Certificate Hygiene
Strengths: Certificate valid, 250 days remaining; Issued by Amazon. Issues: Wildcard certificate in use — broader attack surface if compromised.
Needs work
Known Breaches
No known breaches found in public disclosure databases.
Healthy
DMARC / Email Security
Strengths: DMARC policy set to quarantine; SPF record present with hard-fail (-all); DKIM configured (selectors: selector1, selector2, k1).
Healthy
CVE Exposure
No server software versions detected in HTTP response headers. This is good practice (version hiding) but means CVE exposure cannot be assessed from external signals alone.
Healthy

Steps to improve innov8.work's security grade, ranked by impact.

1
Enable DNSSEC on your domain
Impact: 1–3 Days (Depends On Registrar)
MEDIUM
Without DNSSEC, DNS responses for innov8.work can be spoofed, potentially redirecting users to malicious sites. This requires coordination with your domain registrar to publish DS records.
Compliance impact
NIST 800-53SC-20
Secure name/address resolution service
How to fix this
1
Check if your DNS provider supports DNSSEC (Cloudflare, Route53, etc.)
2
Enable DNSSEC signing in your DNS provider dashboard
3
Add the DS record to your registrar for .work TLD
4
Verify: dig +dnssec innov8.work
2
Increase HSTS max-age duration
Impact: < 30 Minutes
MEDIUM
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://innov8.work | grep -i strict
3
Upgrade to TLS 1.3
Impact: < 1 Hour
LOW
innov8.work negotiated TLSv1.2. TLS 1.2 is still compliant under all major security frameworks and is not a vulnerability. TLS 1.3 offers faster handshakes and removes legacy cipher negotiation. This is a best-practice improvement, not a compliance gap.
How to fix this
1
Update web server config to prefer TLS 1.3 (nginx: ssl_protocols TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3)
2
Verify: openssl s_client -connect innov8.work:443 -tls1_3
4
Add optional security headers (X-Frame-Options, Permissions-Policy)
Impact: < 1 Hour
LOW
innov8.work has most security headers configured. Missing: X-Frame-Options, Permissions-Policy. These are best-practice additions that reduce the attack surface for client-side vulnerabilities.
How to fix this
1
Add: X-Frame-Options: DENY (or SAMEORIGIN if you use iframes)
2
Add: Permissions-Policy: camera=(), microphone=(), geolocation=()
3
Verify with: curl -sI https://innov8.work | grep -iE 'content-security|x-frame|x-content|referrer|permissions'
5
Review certificate configuration
Impact: 1–2 Hours
LOW
Certificate issues found for innov8.work: 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
