SearchJack

Threat intelligence report: SearchJack. Research by MalExt Sentry.

malext.io · Added June 9, 2026 · Last analysed June 9, 2026 · via Hacker News · 73% unique tagline

StackScope is a free public catalogue of indie launches. We find launches on Product Hunt, Hacker News and similar feeds, then crawl each site to detect its tech stack and score it for launch readiness: DNS, security headers, SEO basics. This page is what we saw on 9 June 2026; the live site may have changed since.

SearchJack is largely in shape, with a thorough launch checklist, fast page loads, and clean crawl signals. What needs work: missing Permissions-Policy and Content-Security-Policy, incomplete legal pages, and analytics without a consent banner.

Launched on Hacker News on June 9, 2026. The site is hosted on Cloudflare in the United States. The crawl picked up 7 technologies on this site, covering analytics, CDN, DNS providers, and business email. The stack includes Cloudflare, Cloudflare DNS, and Cloudflare Email Routing.

For context, it's tighter on security headers than most Hacker News launches.
