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

Corsair Gaming Inc. is a prominent global developer and manufacturer specializing in high-performance PC components and gaming gear targeted at gamers, content creators, and PC enthusiasts. The company maintains a strong market position with a diverse product portfolio including PC components, gaming peripherals, gaming PCs, and furniture. Their website reflects a mature e-commerce platform with extensive product offerings and rich content such as guides and blogs, supporting their business model of direct sales and brand engagement. Subsidiaries like Drop, Elgato, Origin PC, SCUF Gaming, and Fanatec further enhance their market reach and product diversity. Technically, the website is built on modern web technologies including React and Next.js, leveraging GraphQL APIs and hosted on a performant CDN likely Akamai. The site demonstrates excellent mobile optimization, accessibility, and SEO practices, ensuring a smooth user experience across devices. Integration of marketing and analytics tools like Google Tag Manager and Convertexperiments indicates a data-driven approach to user engagement. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS with strong SSL configurations and implements key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, explicit security policies and incident response information are not publicly available, which could be improved to enhance transparency and trust. Overall, the website presents a low-risk profile with strong business credibility and technical maturity. The absence of WHOIS data is noted but does not detract significantly from the trustworthiness given the strong brand presence and consistent corporate information. Strategic recommendations include publishing detailed security policies, adding vulnerability disclosure mechanisms, and maintaining updated domain registration data to further solidify 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

5 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

    • 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

Corsair operates in the technology sector focusing on gaming and PC hardware. Their competitive advantage lies in a broad product range, strong brand recognition, and ownership of multiple subsidiary brands that cater to niche markets within gaming and content creation. The business model combines product manufacturing with direct-to-consumer e-commerce, supported by extensive digital content and customization tools like the PC Builder and Custom Lab. Revenue streams likely include hardware sales, software licensing, and branded accessories. The company targets gamers, PC builders, and content creators globally, with a strong presence in the US and Europe. Partnerships with brands like Drop and Elgato expand their ecosystem. Growth indicators include frequent product launches, active content marketing, and integration of modern web technologies.

Security posture

Corsair's website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, robust SSL configuration, and implementation of essential security headers. The absence of exposed sensitive data and secure form handling practices further strengthen their security stance. However, the lack of publicly available security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure programs represents a gap in transparency and preparedness. Compliance with GDPR is indicated through cookie consent mechanisms and privacy policies. No immediate vulnerabilities or security misconfigurations were detected in the analyzed content. Enhancing security documentation and incident response readiness would improve overall security maturity and stakeholder confidence.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Provide clear contact information for a Data Protection Officer or security team.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Ensure WHOIS domain registration data is accurate and publicly accessible to enhance trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern JavaScript frameworks, primarily React and Next.js, with GraphQL APIs for data fetching. It employs Webpack for bundling and integrates multiple third-party services for analytics, marketing, and ad monitoring. Hosting appears to be via a CDN, likely Akamai, ensuring fast global delivery. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and accessibility, with comprehensive SEO metadata and structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine understanding. The technical implementation reflects a high level of digital maturity with minimal technical debt. Opportunities exist to further enhance security transparency and streamline third-party script management to reduce risk.
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.
