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

Affiverse is a media and agency company specializing in affiliate marketing insights, training, and agency services. The company positions itself as a leading source for affiliate marketing news and education, offering a Google News approved content hub, industry events, and training programs such as the Affiliate Manager Performance Program (AMPP). Their target audience includes affiliate marketers, affiliate program managers, and digital marketing professionals, particularly SMEs looking to scale affiliate programs. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including Yoast SEO, Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and Microsoft Clarity, indicating a mature digital marketing infrastructure. The site is mobile optimized and well structured, with good SEO practices. Security posture is good with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks explicit security headers and published privacy or terms of service pages. WHOIS data is missing or unavailable, which raises concerns about domain registration transparency. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy in content and design but would benefit from improved privacy disclosures and WHOIS transparency.

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 affiliate marketing media and services sector, providing a mix of content publishing, training, and agency support. Their business model leverages content marketing, events, and training programs to attract and serve affiliate marketers and brands. The company has a strong partnership ecosystem, evidenced by partner content and sponsorships. Market positioning is strong as a niche leader in affiliate marketing news and education. Revenue streams likely include advertising, event sponsorships, training fees, and agency services. The company shows growth indicators through active event promotion and partner engagement. The lack of WHOIS data is a notable anomaly but does not detract from the visible business operations.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. There is no published security policy or incident response contact information, which limits transparency and readiness perception. GDPR compliance is partially indicated by cookie consent but lacks a formal privacy policy. The security culture appears basic but could be enhanced with formal documentation and improved header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement and verify security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add explicit contact information for security incidents and consider publishing a security.txt file.
  4. Improve accessibility features to meet compliance standards and enhance user experience.
  5. Investigate and resolve the missing WHOIS data issue to improve domain registration transparency and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern and diverse technology stack including Yoast SEO for search optimization, Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel for analytics and marketing, Microsoft Clarity for user behavior insights, and AdButler for advertising. The site uses Bootstrap framework components for responsive design. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. The site includes multiple external scripts for marketing and analytics, which increases tracking but also complexity. There is no indication of hosting provider from the content. Technical risks include reliance on multiple third-party scripts and lack of some security headers. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional media and agency business with room for security and performance enhancements.
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.
