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

Copernica BV is a Netherlands-based technology company specializing in marketing automation and email marketing software. Their platform offers a flexible multichannel marketing solution that enables organizations to create, manage, and optimize campaigns across email, SMS, web, and social channels. With over 20 years of experience, Copernica positions itself as a reliable and advanced provider in the marketing automation space, targeting marketing teams, CRM managers, and organizations focused on customer relationships. The company also owns subsidiary products such as MailerQ and SMTPeter, which cater to high-volume email delivery and cloud SMTP services respectively. Technically, the website demonstrates a mature digital infrastructure with modern JavaScript frameworks, Google Tag Manager, reCAPTCHA v3 for bot protection, and a well-structured SEO-friendly design. The site is mobile-optimized, fast-loading, and uses JSON-LD structured data to enhance search engine visibility. Security best practices are partially implemented, including HTTPS enforcement and cookie consent mechanisms, though explicit security policies and incident response contacts are not publicly available. From a security perspective, the website shows a good posture with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of WHOIS registration data raises some transparency concerns, though the overall legitimacy is supported by consistent business information and a professional online presence. Privacy compliance is well addressed with GDPR-aligned policies and cookie consent. Overall, Copernica presents a trustworthy and professional business with a strong market position in marketing automation. Strategic improvements in security transparency and WHOIS data availability would further enhance 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

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 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

Copernica operates in the competitive marketing automation industry, leveraging decades of email marketing expertise to offer a comprehensive SaaS platform. Their business model includes subscription-based access to their Marketing Suite, cloud SMTP services via SMTPeter, and on-premise mail transfer agent software through MailerQ. The company targets medium-sized enterprises and marketing professionals seeking advanced segmentation, personalization, and multi-channel campaign management. Their extensive partner network and customer success stories indicate a well-established ecosystem and growth trajectory. The company maintains active social media engagement and provides extensive documentation and training resources, supporting customer retention and acquisition. The lack of visible WHOIS data is a minor concern but does not detract significantly from their market credibility.

Security posture

Copernica's security posture is solid, with HTTPS enforced site-wide and use of Google reCAPTCHA v3 to mitigate automated abuse. The presence of cookie consent aligns with privacy regulations such as GDPR. However, the site lacks a dedicated security policy page and explicit incident response contact information, which are important for transparency and compliance. No security headers were detected in the provided data, suggesting room for improvement in HTTP header security. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The absence of WHOIS data reduces transparency but does not indicate malicious intent. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by publishing security policies, adding security headers, and establishing clear incident response channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security practices and compliance.
  2. Provide explicit incident response contact information (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email).
  3. Implement and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and robust technical stack including jQuery 3.4.1, Google Tag Manager, Google reCAPTCHA v3, and a proprietary Copernica SDK. The site is well-structured with semantic HTML and JSON-LD structured data for SEO enhancement. Performance is optimized with asynchronous script loading and preconnect hints. Mobile responsiveness and accessibility are well addressed. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not available from the data. The technical implementation supports a fast, secure, and user-friendly experience with opportunities to enhance security headers and incident response readiness.
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.
