m5stack.com

We performed a comprehensive analysis of m5stack.com on 2026-06-29. The website returned an HTTP 200 status code with a server response time of 10559ms. The page is served over HTTP/1.1 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 96 KB. The website uses a secure HTTPS connection with a valid SSL certificate issued by DigiCert Inc (OV type). The connection is encrypted using TLS 1.2 with the ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 cipher suite and sha256WithRSAEncryption signature algorithm. The certificate covers 2 domain(s) (Subject Alternative Names) and expires on 2027-03-02, which is 246 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 4 technologies across 4 categories powering m5stack.com. The detected stack includes Shopify, Google Analytics 4, Shop Pay, and jQuery. The primary e-commerce platform is Shopify. Based on our comprehensive analysis of domain age, SSL configuration, email authentication, security headers, and blacklist status, m5stack.com receives an overall trust score of 66/100, classified as "Likely Safe".

After conducting a thorough safety and legitimacy analysis, m5stack.com receives a trust score of 66/100, 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 DigiCert Inc with 246 days until expiration, SPF (Sender Policy Framework) email authentication preventing email spoofing, DMARC email authentication with a none policy, and a well-established domain registered for over 10.6 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 m5stack.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 Alibaba Cloud Computing (Beijing) Co., Ltd. based in SG, with a registration date of 2015-12-14 and expiration date of 2027-12-14.

m5stack.com delivers its homepage in 10559ms (server response time), which is considered slow by industry standards. The total page weight is 96 KB, and we detected 259 resource requests loading assets from 17 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 m5stack.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: 1 out of 1 CSS files and 3 out of 7 JavaScript files are minified. Minifying the remaining 4 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 m5stack.com produces approximately 0.05g 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 96 KB is the primary factor in this calculation. Core Web Vitals data from the Chrome User Experience Report (CrUX) is not available for m5stack.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.

m5stack.com resolves to the IPv4 address 13.76.210.48, 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 1 A record(s) configured. The domain name system is managed by 2 name servers: vip3.alidns.com and vip4.alidns.com. Having 2 name servers provides good redundancy — if one fails, the others can continue serving DNS queries. The choice of name servers often indicates the DNS hosting provider or CDN service being used. Email for m5stack.com is handled by Microsoft 365 with 1 MX records configured: m5stack-com.mail.protection.outlook.com. 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 (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting and Conformance) is configured with a none policy — a monitoring-only setting that doesn't enforce any action on unauthorized emails. 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 m5stack.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 Alibaba Cloud Computing (Beijing) Co., Ltd. (SG). It was first registered on 2015-12-14 and is set to expire on 2027-12-14, making it 10.6 years old. Our subdomain enumeration scan discovered 10 active subdomains for m5stack.com: admin.m5stack.com, api.m5stack.com, app.m5stack.com, blog.m5stack.com, cdn.m5stack.com, dev.m5stack.com, m.m5stack.com, and mail.m5stack.com. Plus 2 additional subdomains. Active subdomains can reveal the organization's infrastructure, including development environments, API endpoints, and third-party service integrations.
