Priority fixes for empiresandpuzzles.com

Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.

  1. Priority 1 · Accelerate

    Static files cached for 30 days or more

    Observed: A same-site stylesheet or script was cacheable for 60 seconds, short of the 30-day benchmark.

    Why it matters: Returning visitors and later page views reuse cached files instead of downloading them again.

    What to do: Give versioned (fingerprinted) CSS, JavaScript, fonts and images Cache-Control: public, max-age=31536000, immutable, and change the file name whenever the content changes.

    44% of Puzzles & Video Games peers do this. Limit: Read from the homepage response only; other pages or regions may send different headers.

  2. Priority 2 · Harden

    Certificate lifetime of 100 days or less

    Observed: The certificate from Amazon had a 197-day validity period, longer than the 100-day maximum that applies from March 2027.

    What to do: Move to automated issuance and renewal now, while you still have time to test it.

    82% of Puzzles & Video Games peers do this.

  3. Priority 3 · Harden

    CAA records limit who can issue certificates

    Observed: No CAA record was found for empiresandpuzzles.com, so any public certificate authority may issue for it.

    What to do: Publish CAA records naming every CA you actually use, including the CAs your CDN uses for managed certificates. Add an iodef contact if you want reports.

    5.6% of Puzzles & Video Games peers do this.

  4. Priority 4 · Harden

    security.txt published

    Observed: No valid /.well-known/security.txt with a Contact field was returned.

    What to do: Publish /.well-known/security.txt with at least Contact and Expires fields, as RFC 9116 requires, and review it before it expires.

    5.4% of Puzzles & Video Games peers do this.
