Content Security Policy (CSP) status,
cookie files using Secure flag,
Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) status,
HTTP Public Key Pinning (HPKP) status,
HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) status,
percentage of automatic redirection from HTTP to HTTPS,
Subsource Integrity (SRI) status,
X-Content-Type-Options status,
X-Frame-Options (XFO) status, and
X-XSS-Protection status.

According to Knight, who has authored more than 1,3 millions of websites, more than 91% of modern websites fail on CBServatory's tests.
