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

Algolia is a leading enterprise technology company specializing in AI-powered search and discovery infrastructure. Their platform enables enterprises and developers to deliver fast, relevant, and personalized search experiences. The company is positioned strongly in the technology sector with a comprehensive suite of AI search, recommendations, personalization, and analytics services. Their website reflects a mature digital presence with professional design, clear navigation, and extensive use of modern analytics and marketing tools. Privacy and cookie policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, demonstrating a commitment to user data protection. However, the absence of WHOIS registration details reduces transparency, though the overall brand presence and external links support legitimacy. Security posture is strong with HTTPS, security headers, and secure consent mechanisms, but the lack of a public security policy or vulnerability disclosure page suggests room for improvement.

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. 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
    • 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

Algolia operates a B2B SaaS business model targeting enterprises and developers needing advanced AI search capabilities. Their market position is strong, supported by a global brand and partnerships. Revenue streams likely include subscription fees for their search infrastructure and AI services. The company maintains a robust partnership ecosystem and support infrastructure. The website content and structured data confirm a focus on technology and AI innovation. Growth indicators include new product launches like Agent Studio and active social media engagement. The business model emphasizes scalability, reliability, and AI-driven user experience enhancements.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a high level of security maturity with enforced HTTPS, multiple security headers, and privacy-compliant cookie consent. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy page, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates gaps in transparency and readiness. Compliance with GDPR is evident through privacy policies and consent tools. Overall, the security posture is strong but could be enhanced by publishing explicit security documentation and incident response information.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ emails.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities exist.
  5. Enhance transparency by including company registration and WHOIS information publicly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Jahia CMS platform and leverages modern JavaScript libraries and analytics tools including Amplitude, Segment, and Google Tag Manager. It uses OneTrust for cookie consent management, indicating compliance with privacy regulations. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good accessibility features. Performance is fast with efficient loading of scripts and assets. The technical stack is modern and well-integrated, supporting a seamless user experience. Opportunities exist to improve technical documentation and security disclosures to reduce technical risk and enhance trust.
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.
