CookieScript is a mature SaaS company founded in 2013, specializing in cookie compliance and privacy management solutions for websites. It offers a comprehensive platform that includes cookie scanning, consent management, privacy policy generation, and script control, targeting website owners, agencies, and businesses needing to comply with GDPR, CCPA, and other global privacy laws. The company holds a Google-certified CMP status and enjoys high customer satisfaction scores, positioning it as a leading player in the consent management market. Technically, the website is built on Joomla CMS, hosted on DigitalOcean, and integrates modern tracking and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel. The site is well-optimized for SEO and mobile devices, with a professional design and clear navigation.

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

3 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 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. 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

CookieScript operates in the technology sector, focusing on privacy compliance solutions. Its business model is SaaS-based, offering tiered pricing plans with scalable domain support. The company targets website owners and agencies requiring GDPR and other cookie regulation compliance. Its competitive advantages include Google certification, multi-language support, automatic cookie scanning, and integration with popular CMS and e-commerce platforms. The company maintains a transparent pricing strategy and a partner ecosystem including support portals and feature request platforms. Growth indicators include 12 years on the market, 300+ websites powered, and extensive cookie database. Strategic observations suggest CookieScript is well-positioned to capitalize on increasing global privacy regulations and demand for compliance tools.

Security posture

CookieScript exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced, CSRF protection in forms, and hosting exclusively within the EU to comply with data transfer regulations. The domain registration is consistent and transparent, with no privacy protection masking ownership. The platform integrates security best practices such as clientTransferProhibited domain status and uses reputable cloud providers. However, the absence of published security policies, incident response plans, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents a gap in transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Overall, the security posture is strong but could be enhanced by formalizing and publishing security governance documents.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response plan on the website to improve transparency and trust.
  2. Implement and report standard security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Consider adding direct company contact emails and phone numbers for improved customer and security communication.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerable libraries are used and maintain secure integrations.

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.
