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

Check-IT.online is a small technology company founded in 2021 that provides automated website health monitoring and SEO keyword tracking services primarily targeting small to medium business owners. Their service includes hourly website uptime checks, daily keyword rank monitoring, SSL certificate expiry alerts, GDPR compliance visibility checks, and instant notifications to help website owners maintain online presence and competitive advantage. The website is professionally designed with good user experience and clear navigation, offering multiple subscription plans including a free tier to attract users. Technically, the website uses a modern tech stack including jQuery, Bootstrap, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Google reCAPTCHA for security on forms. Hosting is provided by TMDCloud as inferred from DNS records. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. However, some security best practices such as DNSSEC and security headers are missing, and no explicit incident response or security policy is published. The security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and no exposed sensitive data, but improvements are recommended to enhance DNS security and add security headers. Privacy compliance is basic with a privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism present, but lacks detailed GDPR compliance indicators and data retention policies. Business credibility is supported by client testimonials and clear service descriptions, though no direct contact emails or phone numbers are publicly listed. Overall, Check-IT.online presents a trustworthy and functional service with room for improvement in security and privacy transparency. Strategic enhancements in DNS security, security headers, and incident response disclosures would strengthen their security posture and customer trust.

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

7 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. 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

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

Check-IT.online occupies a niche market in website monitoring and SEO keyword tracking, offering a SaaS subscription model with free and paid tiers. Their competitive advantage lies in combining uptime monitoring with keyword rank tracking and GDPR compliance checks, appealing to small business owners who need automated oversight of their online assets. Revenue streams come from monthly subscriptions with tiered plans tailored to different user needs. The company maintains a modest partnership ecosystem, notably with PayPal for payment processing. Growth indicators include active client testimonials and integration of marketing tools like Google Optimize and Facebook Pixel. The business operates primarily in the US but serves a global audience. Strategic observations suggest focusing on expanding contact transparency and enhancing security compliance to build greater market confidence.

Security posture

The current security maturity level of Check-IT.online is moderate. HTTPS is properly implemented, and forms are protected with Google reCAPTCHA to mitigate spam and abuse. However, the absence of DNSSEC leaves DNS queries vulnerable to spoofing attacks. The lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options increases risk from clickjacking and cross-site scripting. No security.txt or explicit incident response contacts are provided, which limits vulnerability reporting and incident management capabilities. Privacy policy and cookie consent exist but lack detailed GDPR compliance disclosures. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security culture appears functional but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS integrity and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a security.txt file and provide explicit incident response contact information to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  4. Enhance privacy policy with detailed GDPR compliance statements and data retention policies.
  5. Add clear company contact information such as phone number and physical address to improve trust and credibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a solid technical foundation using Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for interactivity. It integrates multiple third-party libraries and services including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Google Optimize, and Mailchimp for marketing automation. Hosting is managed by TMDCloud, inferred from DNS nameservers. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected, and mobile optimization is good. However, the site lacks advanced accessibility features and SEO optimizations could be improved. The use of multiple external scripts introduces some risk and potential performance overhead. Technical debt appears low but security enhancements are recommended to reduce risk exposure.
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.
