altscene.com

We performed a comprehensive analysis of altscene.com on 2026-06-30. The website returned an HTTP 200 status code with a server response time of 11209ms. The page is served over HTTP/2 protocol, however no compression (Gzip or Brotli) is enabled, which means the page is transferred at its full uncompressed size. The total page weight is 22 KB. The website uses a secure HTTPS connection with a valid SSL certificate issued by Amazon (DV type). The connection is encrypted using TLS 1.2 with the ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256 cipher suite and sha256WithRSAEncryption signature algorithm. The certificate covers 3 domain(s) (Subject Alternative Names) and expires on 2026-12-02, which is 155 days from now. The security headers analysis reveals a score of 0/100 (poor). No security headers are configured, which is a significant security concern. However, the site is missing Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS), X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy, and Permissions-Policy, which could expose the site and its users to cross-site scripting (XSS), clickjacking, and other web-based attacks. Our technology detection scan identified 10 technologies across 9 categories powering altscene.com. The detected stack includes Bootstrap, Vite, Google Analytics 4, Meta Pixel, reCAPTCHA v3, Cloudflare, StackPath, Google Fonts, jQuery, and Font Awesome. Based on our comprehensive analysis of domain age, SSL configuration, email authentication, security headers, and blacklist status, altscene.com receives an overall trust score of 63/100, classified as "Likely Safe".

After conducting a thorough safety and legitimacy analysis, altscene.com receives a trust score of 63/100, which places it in the "Likely Safe" category. This score is calculated by evaluating multiple factors including SSL certificate validity, domain registration history, email authentication protocols, security header configuration, and blacklist status across major threat intelligence databases. The analysis identified several positive trust signals: a valid HTTPS connection protecting data in transit, a valid SSL certificate issued by Amazon with 155 days until expiration, SPF (Sender Policy Framework) email authentication preventing email spoofing, and a well-established domain registered for over 12.6 years, indicating long-term commitment and legitimacy. Areas of concern include: the absence of a Content-Security-Policy header, which leaves the site more vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, no X-Frame-Options header, which could allow the site to be embedded in malicious iframes (clickjacking), missing Referrer-Policy, potentially leaking URL information to third parties, the domain's WHOIS information is hidden behind a privacy service, making it harder to verify the owner's identity, and DNSSEC is not enabled, leaving DNS queries vulnerable to spoofing attacks. While these issues don't necessarily indicate malicious intent, they represent areas where the website's security posture could be improved. We checked altscene.com against 8 major blacklist databases including Google Safe Browsing, Phishtank, Urlhaus, Openphish, Dnsfilter, Spamhaus Dbl, Surbl, and Virustotal. The domain passed all 8 checks with a clean status, meaning it has not been flagged for phishing, malware distribution, spam, or other malicious activities by any of the tested threat intelligence providers. The domain is registered through IONOS SE based in IE, with a registration date of 2013-11-20 and expiration date of 2026-11-20.

altscene.com delivers its homepage in 11209ms (server response time), which is considered slow by industry standards. The total page weight is 22 KB, and we detected 75 resource requests loading assets from 12 third-party domains. A high number of third-party domains can significantly impact page load time due to additional DNS lookups and TLS handshakes required for each domain. No compression is currently enabled on altscene.com. Enabling Brotli or Gzip compression could reduce page size by 60-80% for text-based assets (HTML, CSS, JavaScript), significantly improving load times and reducing bandwidth costs. This is one of the simplest and most impactful performance optimizations available. Asset minification status: 2 out of 8 CSS files and 3 out of 9 JavaScript files are minified. Minifying the remaining 12 unminified file(s) could further reduce page weight by 10-30% for those assets. Minification is a best practice that reduces download sizes without affecting functionality. From an environmental perspective, each page view of altscene.com produces approximately 0.01g of CO₂, earning a carbon rating of A. This places the website among the cleanest on the web, demonstrating efficient use of server resources and optimized content delivery. For reference, the average web page produces about 0.5g of CO₂ per page view. The page weight of 22 KB is the primary factor in this calculation. Core Web Vitals data from the Chrome User Experience Report (CrUX) is not available for altscene.com. This typically means the site doesn't have enough real-world Chrome user traffic to generate statistically significant field data, or the domain is not included in the CrUX dataset. Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS) are important Google ranking factors that measure real user experience.

altscene.com resolves to the IPv4 address 52.209.168.8, but does not support IPv6. IPv6 adoption is increasingly important as IPv4 address space becomes exhausted, and some ISPs and regions are transitioning to IPv6-only connectivity. The domain has 3 A record(s) configured. The domain name system is managed by 4 name servers: ns-1020.awsdns-63.net, ns-1283.awsdns-32.org, ns-1812.awsdns-34.co.uk, and ns-62.awsdns-07.com.

The choice of name servers often indicates the DNS hosting provider or CDN service being used. Email for altscene.com is handled by co.uk with 2 MX records configured: mx00.ionos.co.uk and mx01.ionos.co.uk. Multiple MX records provide failover redundancy — if the primary mail server is unavailable, email will be routed to the next available server. SPF (Sender Policy Framework) is configured, which specifies which mail servers are authorized to send email on behalf of this domain. This helps prevent email spoofing and improves email deliverability. DMARC is not configured, leaving the domain vulnerable to email spoofing and phishing attacks that impersonate this domain. DKIM was not detected. Without DKIM, recipients cannot cryptographically verify that emails claiming to be from this domain are authentic. DNSSEC is not enabled for altscene.com. While not critical for most websites, DNSSEC adds an important security layer by ensuring DNS responses haven't been tampered with during transit. Enabling DNSSEC is recommended for domains handling sensitive data or financial transactions. The domain is registered through IONOS SE (IE).
