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

Amp is a specialized agentic coding tool designed to leverage advanced frontier AI models for autonomous reasoning, comprehensive code editing, and complex task execution. The product targets developers and technical users seeking enhanced coding assistance. The website is professionally designed, mobile-optimized, and uses modern web technologies such as SvelteKit and Cloudflare DNS/CDN services. The parent company is Sourcegraph, a known entity in the developer tools space, lending credibility to the offering. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and domain registration consistent with a mature business. However, the site lacks explicit privacy and cookie policies, which is a compliance gap. No direct contact information or incident response contacts are provided, limiting transparency in these areas.

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

7 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 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"

  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

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

Amp operates in the technology sector focusing on AI-driven developer tools. Its business model appears to be SaaS-based, offering advanced coding assistance through integrations with popular platforms like VS Code and CLI tools. The company leverages its parent Sourcegraph's reputation and infrastructure. The website features testimonials and operational status indicators, enhancing trust. The target audience is developers and technical professionals interested in AI-enhanced coding productivity. The absence of detailed privacy and cookie policies suggests an area for improvement in regulatory compliance. The partnership ecosystem includes Sourcegraph and social media channels on X and YouTube for community engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enabled and domain status set to clientTransferProhibited, preventing unauthorized transfers. DNS is managed via Cloudflare, a reputable provider. No security headers were explicitly detected in the HTML content, which could be improved. The absence of a security.txt or vulnerability disclosure page limits transparency for security researchers. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were found. Incident response contact information is missing, which could delay handling of security issues. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from enhanced transparency and additional security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Implement a cookie consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations.
  3. Add a security.txt or vulnerability disclosure page to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Provide clear contact information including security incident response contacts.
  5. Enable DNSSEC to improve domain security and prevent DNS spoofing.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack centered on SvelteKit, delivering fast and responsive user experience with good mobile optimization. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, ensuring performance and reliability. The site uses modern video formats and module preloading for performance optimization. No CMS was detected, indicating a custom or static site approach. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility is good with ARIA attributes and responsive design. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, indicating minimal user tracking. Technical risks are low, but enabling DNSSEC and adding security headers would further strengthen the infrastructure.
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.
