HTTPS surface reachable (robots ✓, sitemap ✗, title ✓)
Why it matters: Public files — robots.txt, sitemap.xml, head meta — are what attackers see first during reconnaissance. Misadvertised paths, stale sitemaps, and verbose generators leak more than intended (ISO 27001 A.8.9).

# robots.txt
#
# This file is to prevent the crawling and indexing of certain parts
# of your site by web crawlers and spiders run by sites like Yahoo!
# and Google. By telling these "robots" where not to go on your site,
# you save bandwidth and server resources.
#
# This file will be ignored unless it is at the root of your host:
# Used: http://example.com/robots.txt
# Ignored: http://example.com/site/robots.txt

# For more information about the robots.txt standard, see:
