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

Crexi operates as an online commercial real estate exchange platform, providing photos, maps, and property descriptions to facilitate real estate transactions. The website targets commercial real estate professionals and investors, positioning itself as a significant player in the real estate marketplace sector. The business model revolves around listing and exchanging commercial properties, leveraging digital tools to enhance market visibility and transaction efficiency. The platform's market position appears established, though specific company founding details and country of operation are not explicitly stated in the analyzed content. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including Angular framework, Google Maps API for geospatial data, Stripe for payment processing, and various marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, HubSpot, and Trustpilot widgets. The technical infrastructure supports a moderate performance level with basic mobile optimization and SEO practices. However, the absence of a detected CMS and hosting provider details limits a full assessment of the backend environment. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and integrates reCAPTCHA v3 to mitigate automated abuse. Nonetheless, there is a lack of visible security headers and no published security or incident response policies, which are critical for a platform handling sensitive business data. The WHOIS data is notably absent or inaccessible, raising concerns about domain registration transparency and legitimacy. This gap impacts the overall trustworthiness and may warrant further investigation. Overall, while the platform demonstrates a professional business presence with essential digital tools, it exhibits gaps in privacy compliance, security best practices, and domain registration transparency. Addressing these areas will enhance trust, regulatory compliance, and security posture, thereby supporting sustainable business growth and user confidence.

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

6 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Twitter, Google APIs, Google Ads

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

Crexi is positioned as a key commercial real estate exchange platform, focusing on providing comprehensive property listings with visual and locational data. Its competitive advantage lies in integrating mapping technologies and payment processing to streamline real estate transactions. The business model likely includes subscription or transaction fees, targeting commercial real estate brokers, investors, and developers. The presence of marketing tools and analytics indicates active customer acquisition and engagement strategies. However, the lack of detailed corporate information and domain registration transparency may affect stakeholder confidence. Partnerships with major ad networks and analytics providers suggest a robust marketing ecosystem. Growth indicators are implied by the use of advanced tracking and user engagement technologies, though explicit financial or operational metrics are not available.

Security posture

The current security maturity level of the website is moderate but incomplete. HTTPS is implemented, and reCAPTCHA v3 is used to prevent automated abuse, which are positive indicators. However, the absence of critical security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is published, limiting transparency and preparedness for security incidents. Privacy and cookie policies are missing, which is a compliance gap under GDPR and other data protection regulations. The extensive use of third-party scripts increases the attack surface and potential privacy risks. The missing WHOIS data further complicates trust assessment. To improve, the organization should implement comprehensive security headers, publish security policies, and establish clear incident response channels.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance web security.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements and user consent mechanisms.
  3. Establish and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program and security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting and incident management.
  4. Improve WHOIS domain registration transparency to strengthen legitimacy and trustworthiness.
  5. Conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and marketing tools to minimize vulnerabilities and data leakage.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages a modern technology stack with Angular framework, Google Maps API, Stripe payment integration, and multiple marketing and analytics services. The front-end design is basic but consistent, with some mobile optimization. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts to improve user experience. SEO and accessibility features are present but minimal. The absence of a detected CMS or hosting provider information limits backend infrastructure assessment. The extensive use of third-party services introduces dependencies and potential privacy concerns. Technical debt appears manageable but could be reduced by consolidating scripts and enhancing security configurations. Opportunities exist to modernize privacy compliance and security posture to align with industry best practices.
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.
