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

Captify Technologies operates a leading Search Intelligence platform that leverages real-time search data from billions of devices to empower brands, advertisers, and publishers with actionable consumer insights. Their platform enables cookieless targeting and measurement, positioning them strongly in the evolving digital marketing landscape. The website reflects a mature business with a broad client base including over 800 major global brands. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern marketing and analytics integrations such as Google Analytics, HubSpot, Hotjar, and LinkedIn Insight. The site is well-optimized for SEO and mobile devices, providing a professional user experience. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks visible security headers and published security policies, which are areas for improvement. WHOIS data is missing or unavailable, which raises some concerns about domain registration transparency but does not necessarily indicate illegitimacy given the professional web presence. Overall, the site is credible and business-focused with good privacy compliance indicators.

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 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"

    • 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. 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

Captify is positioned as a key player in the marketing technology sector, specializing in Search Intelligence for cookieless advertising solutions. Their business model centers on ingesting and classifying first-party search data to provide unique audience insights and programmatic marketing capabilities. The company targets large brands and publishers, offering services that enhance marketing ROI and editorial monetization. The presence of numerous high-profile clients and industry recognition (e.g., Adweek award) underscores their competitive advantage. The website's content and linked domains suggest a well-established partnership ecosystem and a focus on data-driven marketing innovation.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and integrates cookie consent tools, indicating baseline security and privacy awareness. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others reduces the overall security posture. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no security.txt or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are evident. There is no exposed sensitive data or known vulnerabilities detected in the content. The missing WHOIS data is a notable anomaly that impacts trust from a domain registration perspective. Enhancing security transparency and technical controls would strengthen the security maturity of the organization.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response plan on the website.
  2. Add and configure security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to improve protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Clarify domain registration details or ensure WHOIS data is publicly available to improve trustworthiness.
  5. Continue to maintain and enhance privacy compliance mechanisms, including clear privacy and cookie policies.

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including Google Analytics, HubSpot, Pardot, Hotjar, and LinkedIn Insight for marketing and analytics. SEO is enhanced by Yoast SEO plugin, and the site uses responsive design for mobile optimization. Performance is moderate with room for improvement in accessibility features. The site uses multiple external scripts and tracking pixels, reflecting extensive data collection for marketing purposes. No major technical issues or broken elements were detected in the content provided. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional marketing platform but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and performance tuning.
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.
