Risk levelLow

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

Cosmic operates a technology platform focused on content and media management, providing API and web dashboard services to developers and businesses. The website analyzed is a status page hosted on Atlassian Statuspage, offering real-time uptime and incident reporting for Cosmic's services. The platform is stable with no recent incidents reported, and it supports user subscriptions for updates via email and Slack, secured by Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise. The website demonstrates good technical maturity with modern technologies, mobile optimization, and secure form handling. However, the lack of accessible WHOIS data limits domain registration verification, and no explicit security or incident response policies are published on this page. Privacy and cookie policies are linked to Atlassian's comprehensive legal pages, indicating compliance with GDPR and related regulations.

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. 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
    • 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

Cosmic positions itself as a niche SaaS provider in the technology sector, targeting developers and businesses needing content management APIs and dashboards. The business model relies on SaaS offerings with a focus on API and dashboard services. The use of Atlassian Statuspage for status monitoring reflects a partnership ecosystem that enhances trust and operational transparency. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers on the status page suggests a separation of support channels, likely centralized on the main corporate site. The company appears small but professional, with consistent branding and good content quality. The uptime data and operational transparency serve as trust signals to customers and partners.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise to secure subscription forms, indicating a strong baseline security posture. While explicit security headers are not visibly confirmed in the HTML, the use of Atlassian's platform suggests underlying security best practices. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. However, the absence of a published security policy or vulnerability disclosure page and lack of incident response contact information represent gaps in security transparency and readiness. DNSSEC status is unknown due to missing WHOIS data. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved by publishing formal policies and contact channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and vulnerability disclosure page to enhance transparency and trust.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information, including security or abuse email addresses.
  3. Verify and explicitly implement security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Investigate and enable DNSSEC for the domain to improve DNS security.
  5. Consider adding direct contact emails or phone numbers on the status or main site for improved customer support.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages a modern technology stack including jQuery, Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise, and Atlassian Statuspage platform, hosted on Amazon Cloudfront CDN for performance and reliability. The site is mobile optimized with good accessibility and SEO practices. The uptime visualization uses SVG graphics with interactive tooltips, enhancing user experience. The use of asynchronous scripts and CDN resources contributes to fast loading times. There is no evidence of technical debt or outdated libraries. The WHOIS data is unavailable or malformed, which is a technical limitation for domain verification but does not impact site functionality. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust and well-implemented.
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.
