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

Datadog is a leading enterprise SaaS provider specializing in cloud monitoring and analytics. The website analyzed is the EU login portal for Datadog, designed for developers, IT operations teams, and business users. The platform offers comprehensive monitoring services including logs, metrics, and security monitoring. The site demonstrates a professional and consistent brand presence with a modern technical infrastructure leveraging HTTPS and CDN-hosted static assets. Security posture is strong with encrypted connections and no visible vulnerabilities, though explicit security headers could be improved. Privacy compliance indicators are limited on the login page, with no visible privacy or cookie policies, which slightly impacts compliance scoring. Overall, the domain is privacy protected in WHOIS, which is typical for enterprise SaaS providers, and no suspicious patterns were detected. The site is safe for general audiences and does not contain adult or questionable content.

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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  2. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Unregistered MX Record

      MX record points to unregistered domain:

      What to do: Remove or fix MX record pointing to unregistered domain

      • RFC 5321 §5.1
      • NIS2 21(2)(i)
      • IR 2024/2690 12.4: Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 12.4: Asset inventory

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

Datadog operates in the technology sector as a SaaS provider targeting enterprise customers requiring cloud infrastructure monitoring and analytics. Their business model is subscription-based, focusing on delivering real-time insights and security monitoring. The company holds a strong market position as a trusted cloud monitoring platform with a global presence. The login portal analyzed is part of their EU regional infrastructure, indicating compliance with regional data regulations. The absence of contact information or policies on the login page suggests these are likely hosted elsewhere on the main corporate site. Datadog's ecosystem includes integrations with numerous cloud and IT tools, reinforcing its strategic partnerships and broad market reach.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and loads resources from trusted domains, indicating good baseline security. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as HSTS, X-Content-Type-Options, and Content Security Policy reduces the overall security posture slightly. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. The login form appears standard without insecure input handling. The lack of visible incident response or security policy pages on the login portal limits assessment of organizational security maturity. Overall, the site demonstrates a solid security foundation suitable for enterprise use but could benefit from enhanced header configurations and published security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish explicit security headers including HSTS, CSP, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Add visible privacy and cookie policy links on the login page to improve privacy compliance.
  3. Provide clear contact information or links to support and security incident response channels.
  4. Publish a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to enhance transparency and trust.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The site uses modern web technologies including minified JavaScript, CSS, and SVG icons served via a CDN. The HTML structure is valid and optimized for performance with preloading of critical scripts. Mobile optimization is good with viewport meta tags and responsive design elements. Accessibility features are basic but present, such as ARIA attributes and focus-visible classes. SEO optimization is minimal on the login page, which is typical for such portals. Hosting appears to be managed by Datadog's infrastructure or CDN providers, ensuring reliable uptime and fast content delivery. No CMS or third-party frameworks were explicitly detected in the login page source.
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.
