      <guid>https://dev.to/iraqsecurescore/cybersecurity-in-iraq-introducing-iraq-securescore-for-website-security-assessment-11je</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Cybersecurity is becoming increasingly important as businesses, organizations, and website owners in Iraq continue to expand their digital presence.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To support this growing need, I created &lt;strong&gt;Iraq SecureScore (ISS)&lt;/strong&gt; — a cybersecurity and website security assessment platform designed to make security findings easier to understand and act on.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;🌐 Official website:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://iraqsecurescore.com" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://iraqsecurescore.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  What is Iraq SecureScore?
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Iraq SecureScore helps website owners, companies, and technical teams evaluate important security configurations for domains they own or are explicitly authorized to assess.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The platform focuses on clear, non-destructive security assessment rather than automated exploitation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It provides a security score, prioritized findings, and technical information that can help teams understand where improvements may be needed.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  What does the platform assess?
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Iraq SecureScore currently evaluates several important areas of website security, including:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;SSL/TLS security and encrypted connections&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;DNS configuration and domain security&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;HTTP Security Headers&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Security scoring and risk assessment&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Prioritized security findings&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Historical security monitoring and assessment&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  SSL/TLS Security
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Secure communication between a website and its visitors is essential.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Iraq SecureScore evaluates SSL/TLS-related information to help identify potential configuration issues and provide a clearer view of the site's encrypted connection.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://iraqsecurescore.com/ssl-security-check" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://iraqsecurescore.com/ssl-security-check&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  DNS Security
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;DNS is a critical part of the security and availability of any internet-facing service.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The platform reviews relevant DNS information and helps website owners better understand their domain security posture.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;DNS Security Check:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://iraqsecurescore.com/dns-security-check" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://iraqsecurescore.com/dns-security-check&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Security Headers
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;HTTP Security Headers can provide an additional layer of browser-side protection.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Iraq SecureScore evaluates important security headers and policies to highlight missing or potentially improvable configurations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Security Headers Check:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://iraqsecurescore.com/security-headers-check" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://iraqsecurescore.com/security-headers-check&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Website Security Assessment
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The goal is not simply to display technical data.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Iraq SecureScore aims to convert security information into a clear assessment that helps website owners and technical teams understand priorities and decide what to improve next.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Website Security Check:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://iraqsecurescore.com/website-security-check" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://iraqsecurescore.com/website-security-check&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Cybersecurity in Iraq
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As digital services continue to grow in Iraq, cybersecurity awareness and practical security assessment are becoming increasingly important.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Iraq SecureScore was created with the goal of contributing to stronger website security practices in Iraq while also serving the wider Arabic-speaking technology community.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Authorized and Non-Destructive Assessment
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Iraq SecureScore is intended only for domains that the user owns or has explicit authorization to assess.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The standard assessment is designed to be non-destructive and does not automatically exploit discovered vulnerabilities.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  What's next?
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Iraq SecureScore will continue to evolve with additional security assessment, monitoring, reporting, and risk intelligence capabilities.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you manage a website or an authorized domain, you can explore the platform here:&lt;/p&gt;
