HTTPS & TLS
100/100A+- HTTPS certificateLet's Encrypt10/10
HTTPS with a valid certificate from Let's Encrypt.
- Certificate expiry474/4
The certificate is valid for another 47 days.
- TLS versionTLS 1.34/4
Negotiates TLS 1.3, the current protocol: faster handshakes, forward secrecy always.
- Old protocols3/3
Refuses the retired TLS 1.0 and 1.1.
- Key strengthRSA 20482/2
A strong key: RSA 2048.
- HTTP → HTTPS3013/3
http:// redirects straight to https://.
- HSTS1 year · preload4/4
HSTS tells browsers to use HTTPS only, for 1 year.
- HTTP/2 and HTTP/3HTTP/22/2
HTTP/2.
DNS
64/100D- DNSSEC0/3
Not signed with DNSSEC: a forged DNS answer for the domain cannot be told from the real one.
- CAA records0/2
No CAA records: any certificate authority may issue certificates for the domain.
- Name servers24/4
2 name servers for the domain.
- Name servers answer2/25/5
Every name server answers for the domain, with the same version of the zone.
- MTA-STStesting1/2
MTA-STS is in testing mode: failures are reported, not prevented.
- DKIM
No DKIM key at the common selectors; it may use one that cannot be guessed.
- SPFredirect4/5
SPF follows another domain's policy (redirect=).
- DMARCreject7/7
DMARC tells receivers to reject mail that fakes the domain (p=reject).
- TLS reporting0.5/0.5
TLS reporting: senders report failed encrypted deliveries.
Web & network
38/100F- Framing0/2
Any site can show its pages in a frame, which enables clickjacking.
- Referrer-Policy0/0.5
No Referrer-Policy of its own (browsers' default applies).
- Permissions-Policy0/0.5
No Permissions-Policy: embedded content may ask for camera, microphone or location.
- IPv60/4
account.mail.ru has no IPv6 address: IPv6-only networks reach it only through translation.
- RPKIunknown1/4
The route to the website is not covered by RPKI, so a hijack of it cannot be told apart.
- Content Security Policy3/3
A Content Security Policy limits which scripts the pages run.
- X-Content-Type-Options2/2
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff stops browsers guessing file types.
Dependencies
80/100B- DNS providersSelf-hosted3/5
All DNS is with one provider (Self-hosted): an outage there takes the domain offline, as Dyn's did in 2016.
- One company for everything5/5
The website, DNS and email do not all hang on one company.

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.
