SecureSite Report Card
A plain-English website security report card for small business owners who run their own online stores or service sites — scans your TLS configuration, flags deprecated cipher suites and missing forward secrecy in language a non-engineer can act on, and walks you through a guided fix-it plan.
Small business owners running their own e-commerce or service websites without a security team
- Weekly TLS scan with a plain-English 'what changed and why it matters' summary
- One-page fix-it guide tailored to your hosting provider (Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, custom)
- Browser-trust forecast that warns when your config will start triggering user browser warnings
- Optional managed remediation handoff to a vetted security partner for $99/fix
RFC 10015's deprecation of RSA and finite-field DH key exchanges in TLS 1.2 will trigger a wave of browser and CDN warnings — SMB site owners will see scary alerts they can't interpret and need plain-language help.
RFC 10015 is real (published July 2026 per devdigest), deprecating RSA/finite-field DH in TLS 1.2, but the cited HN discussion could not be verified and SMB-side awareness appears modest; SMB-focused security guides do get traffic but the trigger event is niche.RFC 10015 Deprecates RSA, DH Key Exchange in TLS 1.2 ↗SSL Certificate Basics Every SMB Owner Should Know ↗
Highly crowded: at least five direct scanner competitors (SiteSecurityScore, ScanComply, Vigilbase, SecurityWall, Barrion) plus ClearSiteSecurity.com — a direct head-to-head competitor using the exact 'plain-English security for small businesses' positioning.ClearSite Security — Website security, in plain English ↗SiteSecurityScore | Website Security Scanner & Continuous Monitoring ↗Free Website Security Scanner — SSL, Headers & Vulnerability Check ↗
Dominant free alternatives (Mozilla Observatory, Qualys SSL Labs, ScanComply, SecurityWall, Barrion) set price ceiling at zero; direct competitor ClearSiteSecurity also appears free, and SMB owners historically resist paying for security tooling unless PCI/regulatory forces it.ClearSite Security — Website security, in plain English ↗Free SSL Scanner & SSL Vulnerability Scanner - SecurityWall ↗
The RFC 10015 trigger is a one-time wave as TLS 1.2 sunsets — TLS 1.3 already doesn't use RSA/DH key exchange, so the specific 'why now' window is narrow; broader SMB security scanning endures but is commoditized.RFC 10015: Deprecating Obsolete Key Exchange Methods in TLS 1.2 and DTLS 1.2 ↗
Trivial to build on top of testssl.sh or Qualys SSL Labs API for the scan layer; main effort is UX/translation work, which is well-trodden given how many competitors already offer graded report cards.Free Website Security Scanner: 35+ Checks in 60s | Barrion ↗
