Could Your Website Be Vulnerable to These Risks?
Most hacks aren’t genius-level — they’re just opportunists finding unlocked doors.
- Your emails could go to spam — or fail to deliver entirely
- Scammers may spoof your domain to impersonate your brand
- Your site could be penalised by Google for speed or security issues
- Security warnings in browsers may scare visitors away
- Broken forms or missing HTTPS could cost you leads

Lock Down Your Site
Are visitors seeing security warnings?Not Sure Where to Start? Run One Scan
Hardenize checks your TLS certificate, security headers, email authentication, DNSSEC, CAA records, and cookie security in a single scan — colour-coded so you can see exactly what’s missing at a glance. A good first stop before digging into the individual checks below.
Recommended tools
SSL / HTTPS
An expired SSL certificate shows a red warning in every visitor's browser. They leave immediately. Make sure HTTPS is enforced with a valid, up-to-date certificate.
Recommended tools
Security Headers
Add headers like Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and Content-Security-Policy to block attacks.
Recommended tools
DNSSEC (Domain Security)
DNSSEC cryptographically signs your DNS records to help prevent them being tampered with or redirected. It adds another layer of domain protection, but it’s not a replacement for SPF, DKIM and DMARC — those are the core tools for email deliverability and spoofing protection.

Are visitors leaving before it loads?Speed & Core Web Vitals
Google penalises slow pages in rankings. Visitors abandon sites that take 4+ seconds to load. Test your performance on mobile and desktop—that's where real visitors come from.

Mobile & Accessibility
Make sure your site works well on phones and meets accessibility standards. Clear layouts, readable fonts, and proper contrast help everyone navigate.

Terms used on this page
Short definitions for the acronyms above. For the full reference, see the technical glossary.
- HTTPS (SSL)
- HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure – encrypts traffic between the browser and your site so it can’t be read or tampered with in transit.
- Security Headers
- HTTP response headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options and similar) that tell the browser how to harden the page against common attacks.
- DNSSEC
- Domain Name System Security Extensions – cryptographically signs DNS records so attackers can’t redirect your domain to a fake server.
- SPF
- Sender Policy Framework – a DNS record that lists which mail servers are allowed to send email from your domain, preventing spoofing.
- DKIM
- DomainKeys Identified Mail – a cryptographic signature added to outgoing email so receivers can verify it really came from you and wasn’t altered.
- DMARC
- Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance – builds on SPF and DKIM, telling receiving mail servers what to do when messages fail authentication.
