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

Axperi is a specialized web-based platform designed to support clinical trial management by providing tools for administration, coordination, activity tracking, and electronic archiving compliant with Good Clinical Practice (GCP). The platform targets clinical study units, experimental centers, sponsors, CROs, and regulatory bodies, aiming to streamline clinical trial processes and improve communication among stakeholders. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image with clear contact information and privacy compliance mechanisms. Technically, the website leverages modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, ScrollMagic, and Bootstrap to deliver a responsive and interactive user experience. The platform is web-based, supporting mobile devices, and optimized for moderate performance. However, some security best practices like security headers are not explicitly detected, and no explicit security certifications or vulnerability disclosure policies are present. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and includes cookie consent mechanisms, indicating a baseline privacy compliance. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain www.axperi.com raises concerns about domain registration legitimacy, which impacts overall trustworthiness. No signs of WAF or blocking mechanisms were detected, and the content is safe for general audiences. Overall, Axperi demonstrates a solid business and technical foundation for clinical trial management software but should address domain registration inconsistencies and enhance security posture to improve trust and compliance.

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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

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 · found on this site
  • 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

Axperi occupies a niche market in healthcare technology, focusing on clinical trial management software. Its competitive advantage lies in its comprehensive multi-user platform that supports regulatory compliance, real-time stakeholder engagement, and remote management capabilities. The business model appears to be SaaS-based, targeting clinical research units and associated entities. The company maintains a professional online presence with clear contact channels and privacy policies, though it lacks visible certifications or extensive marketing tools. Growth potential exists through expanding integrations with sponsors, CROs, and regulatory bodies. The partnership with tnx.it for web design indicates a collaboration ecosystem. The missing WHOIS data is a risk factor that should be resolved to maintain credibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response contacts are provided, limiting transparency. The use of common JavaScript libraries requires regular vulnerability assessments to prevent exploitation. No exposed sensitive data or insecure forms were detected. The domain registration inconsistency is a critical concern that undermines trust and may expose the business to domain hijacking or phishing risks. Enhancing security policies, publishing a security.txt file, and obtaining relevant certifications would strengthen the security posture.

Recommendations

  1. Resolve domain WHOIS registration inconsistencies immediately to ensure domain legitimacy and prevent potential hijacking.
  2. Implement and verify HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
  4. Enhance accessibility compliance and conduct regular security audits of third-party libraries.
  5. Consider obtaining recognized security certifications (e.g., ISO 27001) to boost trust and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern but somewhat dated technology stack including jQuery 3.5.1, ScrollMagic, Bootstrap 3.1.1, and Fancybox 2. The site is web-based and mobile optimized with good navigation and content structure. Performance is moderate, with multiple CSS and JS files loaded from both the primary domain and a CDN (cdn.tnx.it). No CMS is detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not evident from the HTML content. SEO is adequately addressed with meta tags and canonical links. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The technical debt is moderate due to older Bootstrap and jQuery versions, which may require updates for security and performance improvements.
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.
