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

Chevereto is a specialized technology company offering self-hosted image and video hosting software designed for professionals, companies, and hobbyists. The company provides a customizable platform enabling users to create their own media hosting and sharing services with full control. Their market position is that of a niche provider focusing on user autonomy and flexibility, supported by a mature product with over 260 releases and active community engagement. The business model centers on software sales with additional cloud hosting previews and demos to attract users. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including jQuery, Font Awesome, and Cloudflare CDN services, ensuring moderate performance and good mobile optimization. The site is well-structured with SEO best practices and basic accessibility features. However, some improvements could be made in accessibility and security headers. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with a strong SSL configuration and domain transfer protections. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of DNSSEC, security policies, incident response information, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates room for improvement in security maturity and transparency. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-maintained, with a strong focus on user empowerment and community. Strategic recommendations include enhancing privacy compliance with cookie consent, publishing security policies, enabling DNSSEC, and adding vulnerability disclosure information to strengthen user trust and security posture.

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

  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

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

Chevereto operates in the technology sector, targeting a diverse audience including photographers, content creators, real estate professionals, stores, communities, and service providers. Their competitive advantage lies in offering a fully self-hosted, customizable media hosting platform that avoids restrictions common in third-party services. Revenue streams likely include software licenses, cloud hosting services, and support. The company maintains an active blog, forums, and social media presence, indicating a growth-oriented and community-driven approach. Partnerships such as with Chevere SpA support brand credibility. The business is small-sized but well-established since 2007, with a clear focus on niche market needs and user control.

Security posture

The security posture of Chevereto is solid but not comprehensive. HTTPS is enforced with excellent SSL configuration, and domain registration protections are in place. However, the lack of DNSSEC, security headers, and published security policies or incident response contacts limits transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found, indicating good operational security. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file suggests limited formal engagement with external security researchers. Overall, the security maturity is moderate with opportunities for improvement in policy publication and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and display a cookie consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations.
  3. Publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Add security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to improve protection against common web attacks.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting and improve security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a custom-built platform with modern front-end technologies including jQuery and Font Awesome, supported by Cloudflare CDN and DNS services. Performance is moderate with good mobile responsiveness and SEO optimization. The site lacks some advanced accessibility features and security headers. The infrastructure is stable and well-maintained, but enabling DNSSEC and improving security headers would reduce technical risks. The presence of Google Tag Manager and Cloudflare Insights indicates moderate user tracking and analytics capabilities. Overall, the technical implementation supports the business goals effectively but could benefit from modernization in security and privacy features.
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.
