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

Ativait is a Portuguese digital marketing agency specializing in brand activation and e-commerce communication. Founded in 2015 and integrated within the Inovcorp group, it offers services including strategy, marketing, digital transformation, and branding. The company targets e-commerce businesses seeking to enhance their online presence and conversion rates. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with clear service offerings and client testimonials, positioning Ativait as a trusted partner in its niche. Technically, the site uses modern JavaScript libraries and multiple marketing and analytics tools, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and domain transfer protection, though DNSSEC is not enabled and security headers are missing. Privacy compliance is basic with a privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism but lacks detailed GDPR or incident response information. Overall, the site is well-designed, user-friendly, and trustworthy, with room for improvement in security and compliance 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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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 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

Ativait operates in the digital marketing sector with a focus on e-commerce brand activation. Its competitive advantage lies in combining creativity, data, and technology to deliver measurable results. The business model is service-oriented, targeting small to medium-sized enterprises in Portugal and possibly Portuguese-speaking markets. Partnerships with recognized platforms like Google, Meta, Hubspot, and Shopify enhance credibility. The company leverages social media and digital campaigns to grow client brands. Growth indicators include a portfolio of notable clients and testimonials. The parent company Inovcorp provides additional business stability. Strategic observations suggest opportunities to expand compliance documentation and security policies to strengthen market trust further.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer lock enabled. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents gaps that could be exploited. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, limiting transparency. The use of multiple third-party marketing and analytics scripts increases the attack surface and requires ongoing monitoring. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerabilities were detected in the content. GDPR compliance is indicated but not fully documented. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a marketing agency but would benefit from enhanced DNS security, security headers, and published incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to protect against DNS spoofing and improve domain security.
  2. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options) to mitigate common web attacks.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to minimize vulnerabilities and privacy risks.
  5. Enhance privacy compliance documentation with detailed GDPR adherence and cookie management disclosures.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a custom or unknown CMS with a modern front-end stack including jQuery 3.7.1 and Google Fonts. It integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, and E-goi. Hosting is managed via PDR Ltd. with DNS hosted on dns-host-servers.com. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts to optimize page load times. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO basics are implemented with meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The site lacks advanced frameworks but is stable and functional. Technical risks include missing DNSSEC and security headers, which should be addressed to reduce attack vectors.
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.
