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

Boris Verks is a seasoned product designer with over 10 years of experience specializing in UX/UI and branding. The website serves as a professional portfolio showcasing his work, case studies, and references, targeting businesses and product teams seeking design and product ownership expertise. The site is well-structured, visually appealing, and optimized for mobile devices, reflecting a high level of digital maturity. Technically, the site leverages modern web technologies including Webflow, Google Fonts, and PostHog analytics, hosted likely on Webflow's platform. Security posture is moderate; while HTTPS is implied, no explicit security headers or privacy policies are present, which are areas for improvement. The absence of WHOIS data raises concerns about domain legitimacy, though the professional content and external references mitigate some risk. Overall, the site is a credible and professional portfolio but would benefit from enhanced security and compliance measures.

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

8 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  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

The website positions Boris Verks as an independent product designer and product owner with a strong portfolio and client references. The business model is consultancy/freelance, focusing on delivering UX/UI design, branding, and product ownership services primarily in the technology sector. The target audience includes startups, tech companies, and product teams. The site highlights awards and recognitions, indicating a competitive advantage. The presence of external links to Figma prototypes and LinkedIn profiles supports a transparent and connected professional ecosystem. Growth indicators include ongoing projects and openness to new work. No direct revenue streams or e-commerce functionalities are present, consistent with a service-based model.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security posture. HTTPS is used, but no security headers such as Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, or HSTS were detected in the provided data. No forms collect sensitive information, reducing risk exposure. The site uses PostHog for analytics, which requires careful privacy management, but no cookie or privacy policies were found, indicating a compliance gap. The lack of WHOIS data is a potential red flag for domain legitimacy and ownership transparency. Incident response and security policies are not present, suggesting limited formal security governance. Overall, the site is low risk but should improve transparency and security controls to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), X-Frame-Options, and HSTS to strengthen site security.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure domain legitimacy and transparency.
  4. Introduce a terms of service page and security policy to formalize user agreements and security posture.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and analytics tools to ensure they comply with privacy and security best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Webflow, leveraging modern front-end technologies including Google Fonts and JavaScript libraries such as jQuery. It integrates PostHog analytics for user behavior tracking. The site is hosted on Webflow's CDN infrastructure, ensuring reliable performance and global availability. The design is responsive and optimized for mobile devices, with good SEO meta tags and Open Graph data for social sharing. However, no explicit accessibility features beyond basic HTML semantics were detected. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts. The absence of security headers and privacy policies indicates technical debt in security and compliance areas. Overall, the technical implementation is solid for a personal portfolio but can be enhanced with security and privacy 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.
