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

Cyberimpact is a Canadian-based email marketing platform focused on providing powerful and easy-to-use tools for small and medium businesses (SMBs), non-profits, and various sectors including government, healthcare, and education. The company emphasizes compliance with Canadian regulations such as CASL and Quebec's Law 25, hosting data locally to ensure privacy and better delivery rates. Their business model is SaaS-based, offering subscription plans and professional services to enhance customer engagement and marketing automation. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, Intercom, and reCAPTCHA for security. The site is well-optimized for SEO, mobile responsive, and uses multiple third-party integrations for marketing and analytics. The presence of bilingual support and localized billing in CAD further strengthens their market position in Canada. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and implements reCAPTCHA to protect forms. Cookie consent is managed via Axeptio, indicating attention to privacy compliance. However, the absence of explicit security headers and a public security policy or incident response contact are areas for improvement. The WHOIS data is missing, which slightly reduces trust but the overall professional presentation and trust signals mitigate this concern. Overall, Cyberimpact presents a mature, trustworthy platform with strong Canadian market focus and compliance. Strategic recommendations include enhancing transparency around security policies, publishing incident response contacts, and improving WHOIS registration visibility to boost trust further.

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 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 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

  4. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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

Cyberimpact occupies a niche in the Canadian email marketing sector, differentiating itself through compliance with local anti-spam laws and data residency. Its competitive advantages include bilingual support, Canadian data hosting, and a user-friendly platform praised by customers. Revenue streams likely come from subscription plans and professional services. The target customers are SMBs, non-profits, and organizations requiring compliance with Canadian privacy laws. The company maintains a partnership ecosystem including affiliate and referral programs. Growth indicators include recent awards, positive reviews, and active content marketing. The company leverages multiple digital marketing tools and analytics to optimize performance and customer engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to strong security posture with HTTPS enforced and use of reCAPTCHA to mitigate spam and abuse. Cookie consent management aligns with privacy regulations. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of a public security policy or incident response contact reduces overall maturity. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Compliance with CASL and Law 25 is a positive indicator of regulatory adherence. Incident response readiness and security culture could be improved by publishing explicit policies and contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance browser security.
  2. Create and make publicly accessible a security policy and incident response page with clear contact information.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS registration data to improve domain trustworthiness and transparency.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.
  5. Enhance user trust by providing more direct contact options such as verified company emails and phone numbers.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with WPML for multilingual support, ensuring accessibility to English and French users. It uses modern JavaScript libraries and asynchronous loading for performance optimization. Integration with multiple analytics and marketing tools indicates a mature digital marketing infrastructure. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly with comprehensive metadata and structured data. No major technical debt or performance bottlenecks were observed. Hosting provider details are not explicit but the use of Canadian servers is emphasized for data residency. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and incident response 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.
