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

Crossware Limited is an enterprise-focused technology company specializing in email signature management software designed for medium to large organizations. Their flagship product, Crossware Mail Signature, offers centralized management of email signatures across multiple platforms including Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Microsoft Exchange, and HCL Domino. The company positions itself as a world-leading solution provider with strong trust signals such as certifications (Microsoft Gold, ISO, GDPR, AICPA) and positive customer testimonials. Technically, the website is built on modern web technologies including Webflow CMS, Google Fonts, Google Tag Manager, and integrates marketing tools like G2 chatbot and review widgets. However, a critical security weakness is the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support, which significantly impacts the security posture and user trust. Privacy compliance is partially addressed with a privacy policy and GDPR alignment, but lacks cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the website demonstrates strong business credibility and marketing maturity but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and maintain trust.

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. 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

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

Crossware operates in the technology sector, targeting enterprise customers across various industries with a SaaS business model focused on email signature management and compliance. Their market positioning leverages certifications and global customer trust, supported by a comprehensive digital presence and multi-channel marketing efforts. The company serves diverse teams including marketing, IT, sales, and legal, emphasizing productivity and brand consistency. The partnership ecosystem includes integrations with major email platforms and review sites like G2. Growth indicators include extensive customer base references and multiple case studies. The company is headquartered in New Zealand with additional contact points in the UK. Strategic observations suggest a focus on expanding enterprise adoption and enhancing product capabilities.

Security posture

The current security posture of the website is weak due to the lack of a valid SSL certificate and absence of HTTPS, exposing users to potential data interception risks. While some security headers like Strict-Transport-Security are present, they are not fully enabled or configured. The site uses Cloudflare CDN which provides some protection and performance benefits, but the missing TLS protocols and session resumption features reduce security effectiveness. No explicit security policy or incident response information is available, limiting transparency and preparedness. The presence of Google reCAPTCHA on forms indicates some bot mitigation efforts. Overall, the security maturity is low and requires immediate remediation to meet enterprise security standards and compliance requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable and configure HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload to enforce secure connections.
  3. Implement OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve SSL performance and security.
  4. Add a comprehensive cookie policy and consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations.
  5. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan accessible to users.
  6. Regularly audit and update security headers and monitor for vulnerabilities.
  7. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.
  8. Continue leveraging trust signals and customer testimonials to strengthen market position.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Webflow CMS, leveraging modern front-end technologies including Google Fonts and jQuery 3.5.1. It integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics and G2 services for customer reviews and chatbot functionality. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare CDN and AWS DNS services, providing global distribution and reliability. Performance is moderate with no explicit load time data but optimized images and responsive design indicate good mobile optimization. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data for products, organization, and local business. However, the lack of valid SSL/TLS certificates and disabled HTTPS protocols represent significant technical debt and risk. The site uses multiple forms for lead capture with reCAPTCHA protection but lacks cookie consent banners. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern but requires urgent security upgrades to align with 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.
