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

AFAS Online operates as a business software platform providing secure user authentication services through its login portal. The website targets business users and clients of AFAS software solutions, offering modern authentication options including passkey (FIDO2) technology. The platform appears professionally designed with consistent branding and a focus on usability for enterprise customers. Technically, the site uses standard web technologies and ASP.NET MVC framework patterns, with moderate performance and good mobile optimization. Security measures include CSRF tokens and advanced login methods, though the absence of visible security headers and privacy policies suggests room for improvement. Overall, the domain and website content align with a legitimate business software provider, though WHOIS data is unavailable for the subdomain, which is typical and not concerning. Strategic recommendations include enhancing privacy compliance, publishing security policies, and improving security header implementation to strengthen trust and compliance.

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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

AFAS Online holds a strong position in the business software market, focusing on SaaS delivery of enterprise resource planning and related services. Its competitive advantage lies in integrating modern authentication technologies and providing a seamless login experience for corporate users. The business model revolves around subscription-based software access, targeting medium to large enterprises primarily in the Netherlands and surrounding regions. The company maintains a professional digital presence with clear branding and a focus on security. Growth indicators include adoption of passkey authentication and a dedicated status page for service transparency. Partnerships and ecosystem details are limited from the provided data but the presence of related domains like afasstatus.nl and help.afas.nl indicate a structured support and status infrastructure.

Security posture

The security posture of the AFAS Online login portal is moderate. The use of HTTPS is implied though not explicitly confirmed in the data. The presence of CSRF tokens and support for passkey authentication demonstrates adherence to modern security practices. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security score. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The absence of published security policies or incident response contacts limits transparency and readiness perception. Compliance with GDPR and other data protection regulations is unclear due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the site is secure for user authentication but would benefit from enhanced security headers and published compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  3. Add clear contact information for security incident reporting and general support.
  4. Conduct an accessibility audit and improve features to meet WCAG standards.
  5. Enhance SEO metadata and structured data to improve search engine visibility and user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, with server-side ASP.NET MVC framework inferred from form tokens and URL patterns. It supports modern authentication methods such as FIDO2 passkeys, indicating up-to-date security integration. The site is mobile optimized and loads a minimal set of scripts and styles, suggesting moderate performance. However, no CMS or hosting provider information is discernible from the content. The absence of analytics or tracking scripts indicates a privacy-conscious approach or minimal marketing integration. Technical debt appears low, but the lack of security headers and privacy documentation suggests areas for modernization and compliance improvements.
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.
