  3. (c) Business continuity, backups and crisis management: Not visible from outside
  4. (d) Supply chain security: Not visible from outside

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.

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

  • SSL/TLS: did not complete in this scan.
  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • Email security: did not complete in this scan.
  • DNS health: did not complete in this scan.
  • Network security: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Digital Guardian operates as an essential entity within the cybersecurity technology sector, focusing on data loss prevention and data protection solutions delivered primarily via SaaS and managed services. The company leverages its parent company Fortra's portfolio to provide integrated cybersecurity solutions. Its competitive advantages include a strong Gartner rating, comprehensive product suite, and partnerships with cloud security providers like Lookout. Revenue streams likely include software subscriptions, managed services, and professional services. The target customers are medium to large enterprises with critical data protection needs. Growth indicators include active content updates, multilingual support, and strategic partnerships. The company maintains a professional online presence with clear branding and trust signals, supporting its market position as a leader in DLP.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced site-wide and no detected exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries. Consent management is implemented via TrustArc, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap that could be exploited. No public security policy or incident response information is available, limiting transparency for security researchers and customers. There is no visible vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file, which are best practices for enterprise cybersecurity vendors. Overall, the security posture is strong but could be enhanced by publishing formal security policies and improving HTTP header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish explicit security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to harden browser security.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and customer trust.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program and provide a security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Improve WHOIS domain registration transparency to enhance trustworthiness and reduce suspicion.
  5. Continue to maintain and update privacy and cookie policies with clear consent mechanisms to ensure ongoing GDPR and global privacy compliance.

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.
