The platform targets businesses, developers, and organizations aiming to enhance their digital presence and operational efficiency. Technically, the website leverages modern web technologies including React and JavaScript, hosted on reputable infrastructure with good performance and mobile optimization. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforcement and domain transfer protections, though improvements in DNSSEC and security headers are recommended.

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

6 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"

  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

  3. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

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 platform holds a strong market position with over 100,000 companies and organizations using chayns for digital transformation. Its business model is based on a freemium approach with free cloud-based site creation and professional licenses offering enhanced features. The ecosystem includes a wide range of apps, developer tools, and community engagement features, supported by the parent company Tobit.Software. The company operates primarily in Germany and targets sectors requiring digitalization solutions. The platform's modular architecture and API extensibility provide competitive advantages and foster a broad partnership network. Growth indicators include continuous feature expansion and integration of new services such as intelligent agents and payment solutions.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain status clientTransferProhibited to prevent unauthorized domain transfers. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended enhancement for DNS security. Security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not explicitly present, representing an area for improvement to mitigate clickjacking and content injection risks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not publicly visible, suggesting an opportunity to improve transparency and security culture. Overall, the platform maintains good security hygiene but should address minor gaps to strengthen defenses and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and enforce Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options headers to mitigate common web attacks.
  3. Add a visible cookie consent banner to comply fully with GDPR cookie regulations.
  4. Publish a security.txt file or dedicated vulnerability disclosure page to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Provide clear and accessible contact information for business and security inquiries to improve trust and support.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React-based tech stack with extensive use of JavaScript and CSS for a responsive and performant user experience. Hosting appears to be managed by Tobit infrastructure with domain registration through Gandi SAS. The site uses multiple subdomains and external resources for images, styles, and scripts, indicating a modular and scalable architecture. Performance is optimized with DNS prefetching and asynchronous script loading. Accessibility is basic but functional, with room for enhancements. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags including Open Graph and Twitter cards. No CMS is detected, suggesting a custom-built platform tailored to the chayns ecosystem. Overall, the technical implementation is robust and aligns with industry best 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.
