How to read this report

Safety Score evaluates observed signals. Evidence Confidence measures how complete, direct, fresh, and consistent those signals are.

No automated scan can guarantee that a website is safe.

Why this score?

Versioned weights

Threat providers were unavailable. The neutral uncertainty baseline is not a clean verdict.

Domain registration age and expiry were checked.

Observed DNS records and network address were checked.

Website SecurityWeight 15%

Observed certificate validity and TLS protocol were checked.

Security HygieneWeight 15%
60/100

Observed security header values were checked for basic protective settings. Empty values, disabled HSTS and unrecognized values receive no credit. This is not a complete browser-policy validation.

Observed site metadata and About page were checked. Publisher-supplied details are not independently verified.

Popularity is weak context, not proof of safety. Unranked sites use a neutral baseline.

Sampled scripts and pages

Resource analysis incomplete

3 resources checked · 1 script links observed on the homepage. Partial resource coverage.

ClamAV inspects the fetched homepage HTML on our server. New scans also sample up to four linked scripts and two collected internal pages, with size and time limits. Scripts are not executed. Other downloads, private server files and logged-in pages remain outside this check. A signature match needs investigation and can be a false positive. No match is not a whole-site safety guarantee.

Exact hostname lookup uses a downloaded Phishing.Database snapshot. It does not send this domain to an external lookup API or mark sibling subdomains as harmful. Not listed does not mean safe. Snapshot age is download age, not proof that every entry was recently revalidated.

Homepage HTML only · Eight local rule families · local-security-v2

Checks use the fetched page and redirect chain. Scripts are not executed, forms are not submitted, and linked files are not downloaded. This is not a malware clearance.

Page resource inventory

Linked scripts1
Inline scripts5
Embedded frames1

Counts describe the sampled HTML, not every resource loaded by the browser. External resources are common and are not automatically harmful.

No listed local patterns observed. The limited rule set cannot detect every threat or behavior.

Local checks do not query external reputation databases. An unavailable check is never a clean result.

DNS observations · no external lookup API

Domain email protection

Exact-host SPF and DMARC observations help the owner investigate email impersonation risks. They are separate from website malware checks and do not change the Safety Score.

SPFPolicy record observed, not fully validated
DMARCMonitoring-only DMARC policy

What to do next

Review the records with your mail administrator. Inventory legitimate senders and test SPF and DKIM alignment before enforcing a stricter DMARC policy. Fix duplicate records and investigate overly permissive SPF rules.

This bounded check does not send email, probe SMTP, evaluate recursive SPF includes, verify DKIM signatures or apply organizational-domain DMARC inheritance. A missing subdomain record does not prove that no inherited protection exists. A DNS timeout is unknown, not an absent record. A policy record is not proof that messages authenticate successfully.

Technologies

Cloudflare 98% Google Tag Manager 96% PHP 88% Tailwind CSS 72% WooCommerce 90% WordPress 95%

Versions are shown only when publicly exposed by the page or response headers. An observed version is not, by itself, proof of a vulnerability.

JavaScript library advisories

1 sampled JavaScript files checked locally with Retire.js. Database snapshot: 2026-10-17T02:40:06.539Z.

No supported library version was identified in the sampled files. This does not establish that the scripts are safe.

A version match is not proof that the website is infected or that an issue is exploitable here. Owners should review the advisory, check whether their code is affected and test an update. Up to four external script files are sampled, not every dependency, inline script or dynamically loaded resource.

Recommended maintenance checks

PHPCheck the PHP branch against your host support policy and plan updates before the branch reaches end of security support.
WordPressKeep WordPress core, themes and plugins updated. Remove unused plugins and review administrator accounts.

FAQ

Still have questions? Contact us →
Is newsweed.fr safe to visit?

The latest Safety Score is 75/100 with 70% Evidence Confidence. This is a point-in-time assessment of observed technical signals, not a guarantee. Check the exact address and avoid entering payment details if anything looks unusual.

Did the scan detect malware on newsweed.fr?

External threat-provider coverage was unavailable for this scan, so malware status is unverified.

When was newsweed.fr registered?

The public registry record shows Apr 21, 2015. Registration details may be privacy-protected or updated later.

Did newsweed.fr have a valid TLS certificate?

The scanner observed a valid TLS certificate using TLSv1.3. A valid certificate alone does not establish that the site is safe.

How does newsweed.fr describe itself?

The website's About page describes its purpose in the report above. This is publisher-supplied information and is separate from independent security findings.

Can a paid listing change this website's score?

No. Premium placement and owner-supplied pages are labelled separately. Technical evidence, the Safety Score and moderation decisions remain independent.
