Risk levelLow

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

Affiverse is a media and agency platform specializing in affiliate marketing insights, training, and services. Positioned as a leading source for affiliate marketing news with a Google News approved content hub, it targets affiliate marketers, program managers, and SMEs. The company offers advertising, events, agency services, and training programs to help clients scale affiliate programs effectively. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern marketing and analytics tools integrated, including Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and Microsoft Clarity. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly, though some accessibility features could be improved. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and cookie consent implemented, but lacks some security headers and explicit privacy and terms pages. WHOIS data is unavailable, which slightly reduces trust but the website's professional content and social media presence support legitimacy.

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

2 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.

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  2. 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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Affiverse operates in the media sector focused on affiliate marketing, providing a mix of content, training, and agency services. Its business model combines media publishing with service offerings and event management. The company leverages partnerships and a partner directory to build an ecosystem supporting affiliate marketing growth. Market positioning is strong within its niche, supported by industry events and awards. Revenue streams likely include advertising, agency fees, event sponsorships, and training programs. The target audience includes affiliate marketers, digital marketing professionals, and SMEs seeking to improve affiliate program performance.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap. No explicit security or incident response policies are found, and no dedicated security contact channels are provided. The use of multiple third-party tracking scripts increases the attack surface and privacy risks. There is no evidence of vulnerability disclosure or security certifications. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be enhanced by implementing best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen protection against common web attacks.
  3. Provide clear contact information for security incidents and consider establishing a vulnerability disclosure program.
  4. Audit and minimize third-party tracking scripts to reduce privacy risks and improve site performance.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to ensure compliance with standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including Yoast SEO, Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, Microsoft Clarity, and AdButler for advertising. The site uses Bootstrap for responsive design and includes marketing automation tools. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts. SEO is well implemented with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Accessibility is basic and could be improved. The site is mobile-optimized and has a clear navigation structure. Technical risks include reliance on multiple third-party scripts and lack of some security headers. Hosting provider details are not disclosed.
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.
