Risk levelLow

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

Cookienovo.com is a website with a focus likely related to cookie management or privacy tools, as inferred from the domain name and minimal content. The site is relatively new, registered in 2022, and hosted with Cloudflare DNS services. The technical infrastructure includes modern JavaScript frameworks and Google Tag Manager for analytics, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. However, the website lacks critical privacy and cookie policies, contact information, and security headers, which are essential for compliance and trust. The security posture is basic with HTTPS enabled but missing advanced security headers and DNSSEC. Overall, the site is accessible and safe but requires significant improvements in privacy compliance and security best practices to enhance trustworthiness and regulatory adherence.

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 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. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

  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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

The business behind cookienovo.com appears to be a small entity, possibly a startup or service provider in the privacy or cookie management domain. The lack of explicit business information, contact details, and policies limits the ability to assess market positioning or revenue streams. The use of Cloudflare and Google Tag Manager suggests an intent to leverage modern web technologies and analytics. No partnerships or subsidiaries are evident from the data. The target audience is unclear but likely general web users or businesses needing cookie compliance solutions. Growth indicators and strategic partnerships are not discernible from the current data.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS, which is mandatory for secure communications, and uses Cloudflare DNS, a reputable provider. However, the absence of DNSSEC reduces DNS security. No security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, or X-Content-Type-Options were detected, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. The site lacks visible privacy and cookie policies, which is a compliance gap under GDPR and other privacy regulations. No incident response or security contact information is provided, limiting readiness for security events. The use of Google Tag Manager introduces moderate user tracking, but without clear privacy disclosures, this may pose compliance risks. Overall, the security posture is basic and requires enhancements to meet best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve security posture.
  3. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security.
  4. Provide clear contact information including business address, phone, and email for transparency and trust.
  5. Establish an incident response contact channel (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email) to handle security issues promptly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses modern front-end technologies including JavaScript and the Phoenix Framework (inferred from phx-track-static attributes). Google Tag Manager is integrated for analytics and marketing purposes. Hosting is via Cloudflare DNS, providing reliable DNS resolution and potential CDN benefits. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading. Mobile optimization appears good based on responsive meta tags and CSS usage. SEO optimization is basic with standard meta viewport and charset tags but lacks advanced structured data or Open Graph metadata. Accessibility features are minimal but present. The site would benefit from enhanced metadata, structured data, and improved security configurations to reduce technical risks.
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.
