0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

ADPIE is a South Korean technology company operating an SSP advertising platform that leverages advanced targeting technologies to maximize ad revenue for publishers and advertisers. The platform integrates with global ad networks and supports various ad formats including native, video, and lock screen ads. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image, targeting app publishers and advertisers seeking monetization solutions. Technically, the site uses legacy JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 1.11.3 and is hosted on AWS infrastructure, indicating moderate digital maturity. Mobile optimization and user experience are good, though accessibility and SEO could be improved. Security posture is moderate; HTTPS is used, but DNSSEC is not enabled and security headers are missing. The use of outdated libraries poses potential vulnerabilities. Privacy compliance is basic with a privacy policy and terms of service available, but no cookie consent mechanism or GDPR-specific indicators. Contact information is provided with a physical address and company email, enhancing business credibility. Overall, the site is safe with no adult or questionable content detected.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

ADPIE operates in the technology sector as an SSP platform, facilitating ad mediation and monetization for mobile app publishers. Founded in 2015 and owned by Neptune Company, it targets Korean and international markets with a focus on maximizing fill rates and eCPM through advanced RTB and mediation technologies. The business model is B2B, serving advertisers and publishers. The company maintains partnerships with various app publishers as indicated by the partner app icons. The website content and WHOIS data are consistent, supporting legitimacy. However, the absence of social media presence and limited marketing tools suggest a focused but possibly small-scale operation. The company could benefit from expanding transparency and security disclosures to strengthen trust and compliance.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture. HTTPS is enforced on login pages, and domain transfer protection is enabled. However, DNSSEC is not implemented, which could expose DNS spoofing risks. The use of outdated jQuery 1.11.3 introduces potential vulnerabilities. No security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which are recommended to mitigate common web attacks. There is no visible security policy or incident response contact information published. Privacy compliance is basic, lacking cookie consent mechanisms and GDPR-specific disclosures. Overall, while no critical security flaws were found, improvements are needed to align with best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing attacks.
  2. Update JavaScript libraries, especially jQuery, to the latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  3. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to improve privacy compliance and user transparency.
  5. Publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information to demonstrate security readiness and build trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a traditional tech stack centered on jQuery and bxSlider plugins, indicating a legacy front-end approach. Hosting is via Amazon AWS DNS infrastructure, suggesting reliable hosting. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and uses meta viewport tags. SEO is basic with meta keywords and descriptions, but lacks advanced structured data like JSON-LD. No CMS was detected, implying a custom or static site. Performance is moderate, with some potential for improvement by updating scripts and optimizing assets. Accessibility features are minimal but present. Overall, the technical implementation is functional but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security controls.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
