Priority fixes for kia.ca

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

  1. Priority 1 · Harden

    DMARC policy enforces quarantine or reject

    Observed: The DMARC policy for kia.ca was p=none, which asks receivers to take no action on failing mail.

    Why it matters: An enforcing DMARC policy helps receiving mail systems reject email that falsely claims to come from your domain, a common route for phishing your customers.

    What to do: Publish DMARC with p=none and a reporting address first, fix any legitimate senders that fail SPF or DKIM alignment, then move to quarantine and finally reject.

    41% of Cars & Automotive peers do this. Limit: Read from public DNS at the time of the check; records may have changed since.

  2. Priority 2 · Harden

    Certificate lifetime of 100 days or less

    Observed: The certificate from DigiCert Inc had a 198-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.

    58% of Cars & Automotive peers do this.

  3. Priority 3 · Accelerate

    HTTP/3 advertised

    Observed: The homepage did not advertise HTTP/3 through an Alt-Svc header.

    What to do: Turn on HTTP/3 at your CDN. Browsers fall back to HTTP/2 automatically, so the risk is low.

    30% of Cars & Automotive 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.

    8.9% of Cars & Automotive peers do this.
