## Vendor risk summary
This vendor risk report is based on UpGuard's continuous monitoring of eBooks's security posture using open-source, commercial, and proprietary threat intelligence feeds. The results are summarized into a security rating based on the analysis of hundreds of individual checks across five risk categories: website security, email security, phishing & malware, brand & reputation risk, and network security.

## Security categories

### Website Security

- Pass — Server information header not exposed
  - Ensuring the server information header is not exposed reduces the ability of attackers to exploit certain vulnerabilities.
- Pass — X-Powered-By header not exposed
  - Information about specific technology used on the server is obscured.
- Pass — ASP.NET version header not exposing specific ASP.net version
  - Ensuring the ASP.NET version header is not exposing a specific version makes it harder for attackers to exploit certain vulnerabilities.
- Pass — ASP.NET version header not exposed
  - Ensuring the ASP.NET version header is not exposed makes it harder for attackers to exploit certain vulnerabilities.

### Email

  - DMARC policy is p=none. This provides no protection against fraudulent emails. The DMARC policy should be migrated to p=quarantine, and eventually p=reject.
- Pass — DMARC policy exists
  - DMARC protects against fraudulent emails being sent from a domain.
- Pass — SPF enabled
