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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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 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';…

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

Cleverbit Software operates in the technology sector, focusing on delivering tailored software solutions that enhance business productivity through data-driven insights and automation. Their competitive advantage lies in their ethical approach, ISO certifications, and a strong client base across multiple countries including the UK, US, and EU. The business model is service-oriented, offering consultancy, managed development, and packaged solutions. Growth indicators include a sizable employee base and active content marketing via blogs and insights. The partnership ecosystem includes reputable clients and use of Microsoft Azure technologies. Strategic observations suggest a focus on transparency, operational efficiency, and client collaboration as key differentiators.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, presence of privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms, and ISO 27001 certification indicating formal information security management. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the absence of explicit security headers like Content Security Policy and lack of a public incident response or vulnerability disclosure policy represent areas for improvement. The company’s security culture appears client-focused and transparent, supported by clear communication channels and ethical principles. Overall, the risk level is low, but proactive enhancements could further strengthen resilience and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a formal incident response plan or contact channel to improve transparency and readiness for security events.
  3. Develop and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to ensure ongoing GDPR and ePrivacy compliance.
  5. Enhance website accessibility features and conduct periodic security audits to maintain high standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website utilizes a modern front-end stack including Typed.js for dynamic text effects, Swiper.js for sliders, Font Awesome for icons, and Animate.css for animations. Analytics and tracking are managed via Microsoft Clarity and Google Tag Manager, with Bing Ads for advertising. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata. Hosting details are not explicit, but technology references suggest Azure usage. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. No CMS detected, indicating a custom or static site build. Technical risks are minimal, but adding security headers and improving incident response visibility would reduce potential vulnerabilities.
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.
