Craft CMS operates Craft Cloud, a specialized scalable hosting platform optimized for Craft CMS projects. The company targets developers and businesses seeking reliable, developer-friendly hosting solutions with features such as multi-environment support, automated build pipelines, global CDN, and enterprise-grade security protections. The website reflects a mature business with a consistent brand and clear market positioning in the technology sector. The platform is backed by the team behind Craft CMS, reinforcing trust and expertise. Technically, the website employs modern technologies including Vimeo for video content, Google Tag Manager for analytics, and Sentry for error monitoring. The hosting infrastructure appears robust, likely leveraging AWS and Cloudflare services for performance and security. The site is fast, mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly, providing an excellent user experience. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced, enterprise-grade firewall and DDoS protection, and cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and explicit security policies or incident response contacts are not published, representing areas for improvement. Overall, the website and service present a low-risk profile with high professionalism and trustworthiness. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, publishing security and incident response policies, adding a security.txt file, and providing direct security contact channels to enhance transparency 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. 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

Craft CMS positions itself as a niche hosting provider focused on Craft CMS users, offering tiered subscription plans (Team, Pro, Enterprise) with clear pricing and feature differentiation. The business model is SaaS-based, targeting small teams to enterprises with scalable infrastructure. The company leverages partnerships within its ecosystem, including plugin stores and developer tools, to enhance its offering. The absence of direct contact info on the analyzed page suggests a focus on self-service and online engagement. The company has been established since 2013, indicating stability and market experience. The presence of multiple social media channels and community resources supports active engagement and brand building.

Security posture

The security maturity level is high, with HTTPS enforced and enterprise-grade protections via Cloudflare. The site uses cookie consent with opt-in compliance for GDPR regions, and error monitoring via Sentry enhances operational security. No exposed credentials or vulnerable libraries were found in the analyzed content. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response procedures, and security.txt file limits transparency and formal vulnerability disclosure processes. The domain lacks DNSSEC, which could improve DNS security. Overall, the security posture is robust but could benefit from enhanced documentation and contactability for security incidents.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  3. Create and maintain a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Provide explicit contact channels for security incidents, such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website demonstrates a modern and well-implemented technical infrastructure. It uses a combination of Craft CMS as the CMS platform and Craft Cloud as the hosting environment, likely leveraging AWS and Cloudflare for performance and security. The site includes embedded Vimeo videos, Google Tag Manager for analytics, and Sentry for error tracking. The HTML is valid and well-structured, with comprehensive meta tags for SEO and social sharing. The site is mobile responsive and accessible, with cookie consent mechanisms implemented for privacy compliance. Performance is optimized with static caching and CDN delivery. Technical risks are minimal, with opportunities for improvement in DNS security and security policy transparency.
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.
