What NASA declares it can do
A server's blast radius is the most powerful thing each of its tools can do. This grades the tools it declares, read-only, not whether it is secure.
- Execute0
- Delete0
- Write0
- Read23
NASA declares no high-impact capabilities that AxioRank flags. A minimal grade means a small blast radius, not an endorsement.

How it works
About this grade
The grade reflects the blast radius of what NASA declares it can do, read-only, not whether it is secure or trustworthy, and not a judgment of the vendor. Maintain this server? Claim this listing or request a re-scan. See the methodology.
