DNS
86/100A- CAA records0/2
No CAA records: any certificate authority may issue certificates for the domain.
- Name servers84/4
8 name servers for the domain.
- Name servers answer8/85/5
Every name server answers for the domain, with the same version of the zone.
- DNSSECECDSAP256SHA2563/3
Signed with DNSSEC: resolvers can tell forged answers from real ones.

No TLS reporting: failed encrypted deliveries go unnoticed.
- SPF-all5/5
SPF lists the servers allowed to send its mail and rejects the rest (-all).
- DMARCreject7/7
DMARC tells receivers to reject mail that fakes the domain (p=reject).
- DKIMk12/2
A DKIM key is published (selector k1), so its mail can be signed.

What is graded
A valid certificate (an invalid one means F), its expiry against its lifetime, TLS 1.3, no TLS 1.0/1.1 (else at most B), http:// sent straight to https://, HSTS, HTTP/2.
At least two name servers that all answer and agree, DNSSEC, CAA records, and a registration that is not about to expire.
SPF, a DMARC policy that rejects forgeries (none means at most B), MTA-STS and TLS reporting for domains that take mail, DKIM at common selectors.
Content Security Policy, nosniff, framing protection, Referrer- and Permissions-Policy, IPv6, and an RPKI-valid route (invalid means at most C).
DNS from more than one provider, and the website, DNS and email not all with one company.
