This site — built and secured in-house
xar8.online is a small hardened Flask application: strict security headers, decoy endpoints that log scanners, and a visitor console that tells me who is reading what.
Visit ↗Who it is for
Anyone who wants to see how a security engineer builds a public site when nobody is forcing shortcuts.
What it does
- Content Security Policy with no third-party scripts; HSTS, frame denial, referrer and permissions policies on every response
- Honeypot routes (.env, wp-login, xmlrpc) that return harmless bait and record the scanner — real attacker traffic shows up in the console
- Console behind a non-obvious path with bcrypt, rate limiting, lockout and constant-time login checks
- First-party visitor intelligence without cookies: sessions, organizations by network, referrers, clicks on the things that matter — no banner needed
- Bilingual content modeled as data; a security.txt for responsible disclosure
A similar build for you
A company site or client portal built this way costs little more than a template and tells a very different story to the security-minded customer reading it.

How it is built
Flask behind nginx on a hardened Linux host, SQLite, MaxMind GeoLite2, no JavaScript frameworks, no trackers.
