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.

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

Canonical is positioned as a key player in the technology sector, focusing on enterprise Linux, cloud, and AI/ML operational platforms. Their business model leverages open source software combined with enterprise support and consulting services. The website targets enterprise customers, data scientists, and cloud operators. The company has a long domain history consistent with its founding date and maintains strong brand consistency. Partnerships and ecosystem links include Ubuntu, Snapcraft, and MicroK8s. The site content and navigation reflect a mature digital presence with clear business messaging and trust indicators.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with strong domain registration protections and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Security best practices are observed, but the absence of DNSSEC and explicit security or incident response policies are gaps. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are found. The site uses Google Tag Manager for analytics, which is a standard practice but requires proper privacy management. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved with enhanced transparency and DNS security.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear and comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with consent mechanisms.
  2. Enable DNSSEC to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  3. Add a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  4. Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Provide visible company contact emails and phone numbers to enhance trust and user support.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses modern HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript with performance optimizations such as lazy loading images and preloading fonts. It leverages Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking. The site is mobile responsive and accessible with clear navigation and structured content. No common CMS is detected, indicating a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting appears stable and fast, likely managed by Canonical or their registrar. Technical debt is minimal, and the site is well-maintained with up-to-date content and security practices.
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.
