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

No critical or high findings. These medium findings are worth fixing next.

  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.

    • Medium

      Missing X-Content-Type-Options header

      Prevents MIME type sniffing

      What to do: Add "X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff"

      • CAPEC-209
      • ASVS V3.4.4
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
    • Medium

      Missing Permissions-Policy header

      Controls browser features and APIs

      What to do: Implement a Permissions-Policy to restrict feature access

      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Permissions-Policy: accelerometer=(), autoplay=(), camera=(), cross-origin-isolated=(),…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • Medium

      Privacy policy may not be GDPR compliant

      Privacy policy lacks explicit GDPR compliance elements

      What to do: Update privacy policy to explicitly address GDPR requirements and user rights

  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.

    • Medium

      No MTA-STS Policy

      MTA-STS enforces TLS for email delivery

      What to do: Implement MTA-STS to prevent downgrade attacks

  4. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • Medium

      DNSSEC Not Enabled

      DNSSEC is not configured for this domain

      What to do: Enable DNSSEC to prevent DNS spoofing attacks

      • CAPEC-142
      • RFC 4033
      • RFC 4035

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

ClickUp operates in the technology sector with a SaaS business model offering free and paid subscription tiers. It holds a strong market position with over 25,000 reviews and extensive feature offerings. The company focuses on productivity and collaboration tools for teams across industries. The website integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools indicating a sophisticated marketing ecosystem. No direct contact emails or phone numbers are publicly listed, relying on contact forms for sales and support. The domain age and registration status support the legitimacy and maturity of the business.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS with strong domain registration protections. Cookie consent and GDPR compliance are managed via OneTrust. However, no dedicated security policy or incident response contact information is found, and DNSSEC is not enabled, which could be improved. The use of multiple third-party analytics and marketing scripts increases the attack surface but is managed with consent mechanisms. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and controls.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ emails.
  4. Consider implementing and publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  5. Regularly review third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy and security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including Next.js and React, hosted on AWS infrastructure. It uses advanced analytics and marketing tools such as Segment, Amplitude, Marketo, and OneTrust for consent management. The site is well-optimized for performance and mobile responsiveness. The domain is registered with Amazon Registrar and has strong domain status locks. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or framework-based solution. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust and supports a high-quality user experience.
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.
