Top risks

  • Certificate Transparency & PKI Health: Certificate or PKI issues were observed, such as expiry risk, weak keys, chain validation failures, or policy mismatches.
  • DNS & Domain Security: DNS or domain configuration issues that could enable spoofing or zone leakage.
  • Cookie & Privacy Hygiene: Some cookie or privacy hygiene gaps — attributes, volume, third-party scope, or consent UX could be tightened.

Public summaries focus on observed posture rather than remediation guidance.
