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

Browsee is a technology company offering a SaaS platform focused on improving website user experience and conversion rates through tools such as session recordings, heatmaps, conversion funnels, and analytics. The company targets businesses and website owners looking to better understand user behavior visually and optimize their digital presence. Positioned as a competitive alternative to established players like FullStory and Hotjar, Browsee emphasizes privacy compliance and user-centric analytics. The website demonstrates a professional and consistent brand presence with good content quality and clear navigation. Technically, Browsee employs a modern technology stack including Bootstrap, jQuery, Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Amplitude, and Calendly integrations. The site is hosted behind Cloudflare DNS and likely uses CDN services for performance. Mobile optimization and SEO practices are good, though accessibility features are basic. The site loads moderately fast and uses asynchronous loading for scripts to improve performance. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses domain status protections to prevent unauthorized changes. The company states compliance with GDPR and respects Do Not Track settings, and does not record sensitive input fields by default. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and security headers are not explicitly detected. There is no visible security policy or incident response information published, nor a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file. Cookie consent mechanisms appear absent despite GDPR claims. Overall, Browsee presents a trustworthy and professional digital presence with a solid business model and technical foundation. To enhance security posture and compliance, the company should enable DNSSEC, implement security headers, publish security policies, and add explicit cookie consent. These improvements will strengthen user trust and regulatory adherence.

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

4 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 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 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

  3. 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 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

Browsee operates in the competitive user experience analytics market, offering a suite of tools that help businesses visually understand user behavior to improve conversions. Its freemium SaaS model targets small to medium businesses and digital product teams. The company leverages integrations with popular platforms like Intercom, Shopify, and Google Analytics to expand its ecosystem and ease adoption. Customer testimonials and presence on review platforms like G2 and Capterra support its market credibility. The privacy-first approach and GDPR compliance are strategic differentiators in a privacy-conscious market. Growth indicators include active marketing tools and partnerships with scheduling services like Calendly. The company’s operations appear lean and focused on technology innovation and customer acquisition through digital channels.

Security posture

Browsee demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and domain registration protections in place. The company respects user privacy by honoring Do Not Track settings and excluding sensitive input fields from recordings. However, the absence of DNSSEC, security headers, and published security policies indicates room for improvement. Lack of a vulnerability disclosure program and incident response contact channels may delay handling of security incidents. The use of multiple third-party analytics and marketing scripts increases the attack surface and requires vigilant monitoring. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a SaaS startup but should be enhanced to meet higher compliance standards and build stronger user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to secure DNS queries and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a visible cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply fully with GDPR cookie requirements.
  4. Publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response plan accessible on the website.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy and host a security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end stack with Bootstrap and jQuery, supported by asynchronous loading of analytics and marketing scripts to optimize performance. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, providing CDN and security benefits. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO metadata and Open Graph tags for social sharing. However, accessibility features are basic and could be improved. The absence of a CMS suggests a custom or static site architecture. Performance is moderate, with potential gains from further optimization of script loading and caching strategies. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business goals but can be enhanced for security and accessibility.
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.
