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

Delve Health is a specialized healthcare technology company providing decentralized clinical trial solutions that integrate wearables, digital biomarkers, and AI-driven patient engagement tools. Their Clinical StudyPal platform supports multilingual eConsent, remote monitoring, and automation to enhance patient compliance and retention. Positioned as a leader in the clinical research technology space, Delve Health targets clinical researchers, pharmaceutical companies, and healthcare organizations aiming to modernize clinical trials. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with a clear focus on healthcare innovation. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the Astra theme and Elementor page builder, supplemented by plugins such as Gravity Forms and Ninja GDPR Compliance. Performance optimizations are implemented via WP Rocket, and analytics/tracking are managed through Google Tag Manager and HubSpot. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly, though accessibility features are basic. Hosting and domain registration are consistent with the business profile. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and domain status protections in place. However, the absence of DNSSEC, security headers, and published security policies or incident response plans indicates room for improvement. Privacy compliance is partially addressed through cookie consent mechanisms, but the lack of an explicit privacy policy and terms of service pages reduces compliance confidence. Overall, Delve Health presents a trustworthy and professional online presence with a strong business focus. Strategic enhancements in security transparency and privacy documentation would further strengthen their risk posture and stakeholder 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

7 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 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

Delve Health operates in the healthcare sector, focusing on decentralized clinical trials and patient-centric research technologies. Their competitive advantage lies in integrating wearable devices, digital biomarkers, and AI to streamline clinical data collection and patient engagement. The business model is primarily B2B SaaS combined with service offerings, targeting pharmaceutical companies, clinical research organizations, and healthcare providers. Revenue streams likely include platform subscriptions, service fees, and consulting. The company demonstrates growth potential through innovative technology adoption and a comprehensive service portfolio. Partnerships with technology providers and clinical entities are implied but not explicitly detailed. The website content and structured data reinforce a clear market positioning as a technology leader in clinical research innovation.

Security posture

Delve Health exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain registration protections such as clientDeleteProhibited and clientTransferProhibited statuses. The use of GDPR compliance plugins indicates awareness of privacy regulations. However, the absence of DNSSEC, security headers like Content-Security-Policy, and published security or incident response policies suggests gaps in defense-in-depth and transparency. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the website content. The lack of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file limits external security collaboration. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by adopting additional best practices and publishing clear security governance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to enhance compliance and user trust.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen web security.
  4. Publish a security policy and incident response plan on the website to demonstrate security governance and readiness.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting and improve security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress infrastructure using the Astra theme and Elementor page builder, which supports flexible design and content management. Performance is optimized with WP Rocket, including lazy loading and script deferral. The site uses Google Fonts and integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager, HubSpot, and Leadfeeder. The presence of Gravity Forms indicates structured data collection capabilities. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO practices are evident through meta tags and structured data. However, accessibility features are basic and could be improved. The hosting and DNS setup are standard, with Google Domains DNS servers and Squarespace as registrar. Overall, the technical implementation is solid with opportunities for enhanced security and accessibility.
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.
