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

Commvault is a leading enterprise software company specializing in cloud-first data management solutions that unify data security, cyber recovery, and identity resilience across diverse environments including cloud, SaaS, hybrid, and on-premises. The company holds a strong market position as a Gartner Magic Quadrant Leader for Backup and Data Protection Platforms for 15 consecutive years, reflecting its industry leadership and trusted reputation. Their platform targets enterprise IT professionals seeking comprehensive, AI-enabled resilience solutions to protect and govern critical data assets. Technically, Commvault's website demonstrates a mature digital infrastructure leveraging modern web technologies such as WordPress CMS, advanced JavaScript frameworks, and integrations with third-party services like Adobe Target, Vidyard, Hotjar, and New Relic for analytics and user experience optimization. The site is well-optimized for performance, mobile responsiveness, accessibility, and SEO, indicating a high level of digital maturity. From a security perspective, the website enforces HTTPS, employs multiple security headers, and integrates consent management mechanisms to comply with privacy regulations. However, explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure information are not prominently published, representing areas for improvement. The absence of WHOIS registration details is notable but does not detract significantly from the overall legitimacy given the company's strong brand presence and professional web presence. Overall, Commvault's online presence reflects a reputable, enterprise-grade technology provider with robust business credibility and a solid security posture. Strategic recommendations include enhancing transparency around security policies and incident response, publishing vulnerability disclosure information, and maintaining vigilant third-party script management to sustain trust and compliance.

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. 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"

    • 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

  3. 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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

Commvault operates in the technology sector, focusing on data protection, cyber recovery, and identity resilience solutions for enterprise customers. Its business model centers on delivering cloud-native software and services that unify data management across multiple environments. The company benefits from strong market positioning as a Gartner Magic Quadrant Leader, which supports competitive advantages and customer trust. Revenue streams likely include software licensing, cloud subscriptions, professional services, and partner ecosystem collaborations. The target customer segments are large enterprises and organizations with complex data security and compliance needs. The partnership ecosystem includes strategic alliances and a partner portal, indicating a broad channel strategy. Observations suggest a well-established company with a focus on innovation, AI integration, and comprehensive resilience solutions.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, presence of key security headers, and integration of consent management for privacy compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a publicly available security policy, incident response contact information, and vulnerability disclosure program limits transparency and may impact stakeholder confidence. The use of multiple third-party analytics and marketing tools is managed with consent mechanisms, aligning with GDPR requirements. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by publishing explicit security governance documents and providing direct security contact channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security governance and controls.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information, including security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  4. Regularly audit and minimize third-party scripts to reduce attack surface.
  5. Enhance transparency on data protection officer contact details and compliance certifications.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with a custom theme 'commvault-2025' and uses modern JavaScript libraries and frameworks. It integrates video content via Vidyard and YouTube, marketing and analytics tools such as Adobe Target, Hotjar, New Relic, and Google Tag Manager, and supports multilingual content through Weglot. The site is optimized for fast loading, mobile responsiveness, and accessibility. Technical risks are minimal, but reliance on multiple third-party scripts requires ongoing security monitoring. The absence of hosting provider details limits full infrastructure assessment. Overall, the technical implementation 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.
