Sucuri says the site seatgeek.com doesn’t have malware or any important security issues and is a low security risk.

Some hardening improvements can be made:

  • Missing security header for ClickJacking Protection. Alternatively, you can use Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors 'none'.
  • Missing security header to prevent Content Type sniffing. Affected pages:

  • Missing Content-Security-Policy directive. We recommend to add the following CSP directives (you can use default-src if all values are the same): script-src, object-src, base-uri, frame-src
  • The ‘unsafe-eval’ keyword in Content-Security-Policy is not recommended. Please consider fixing the JavaScript code. Affected pages:
