Security checks

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

DNS Configuration
Strengths: 2 nameservers configured (zelda.ns.cloudflare.com., lloyd.ns.cloudflare.com.); 5 MX records present; Zone transfers properly restricted. Issues: DNSSEC not configured — DNS responses can be spoofed.
Needs work
Security Headers
3/5 security headers present. Missing: X-Content-Type-Options, Permissions-Policy.
Needs work
DMARC / Email Security
Strengths: SPF record present with soft-fail (~all); DKIM configured (selectors: google, k1). Issues: DMARC policy is 'none' (monitoring only, no enforcement).
Needs work
Known Breaches
No known breaches found in public disclosure databases.
Healthy
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 with includeSubDomains and preload. Meets best-practice configuration.
Healthy
CVE Exposure
Detected technologies: nginx, WP Engine. No version information exposed — CVE matching not possible (this is good practice).
Healthy
Certificate Hygiene
Strengths: Certificate valid, 67 days remaining; Issued by Let's Encrypt.
Healthy

Steps to improve secondmeasure.com's security grade, ranked by impact.

1
Strengthen email authentication configuration
Impact: 2–4 Hours
HIGH
Email authentication is partially configured for secondmeasure.com but has gaps. Actions needed: upgrade DMARC policy from 'none' to 'quarantine' or 'reject'. Until DMARC enforcement is active, spoofed emails may still reach recipients.
Compliance impact
NIST CSFPR.AC-7
Email authentication is a required access control
How to fix this
1
Upgrade DMARC policy to p=quarantine (then p=reject after monitoring)
2
Verify with: nslookup -type=txt _dmarc.secondmeasure.com
2
Enable DNSSEC on your domain
Impact: 1–3 Days (Depends On Registrar)
MEDIUM
Without DNSSEC, DNS responses for secondmeasure.com 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 .com TLD
4
Verify: dig +dnssec secondmeasure.com
3
Add optional security headers (X-Content-Type-Options, Permissions-Policy)
Impact: < 1 Hour
LOW
secondmeasure.com has most security headers configured. Missing: X-Content-Type-Options, Permissions-Policy. These are best-practice additions that reduce the attack surface for client-side vulnerabilities.
How to fix this
1
Add: X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
2
Add: Permissions-Policy: camera=(), microphone=(), geolocation=()
3
Verify with: curl -sI https://secondmeasure.com | grep -iE 'content-security|x-frame|x-content|referrer|permissions'
