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. 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"

  2. 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

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

Duo Security operates a SaaS business model focused on cybersecurity solutions, particularly identity and access management. Its revenue streams likely include subscription fees for various editions of its products, as indicated by pricing tiers on the website. The company targets a broad customer base including small to medium businesses, large enterprises, government entities, and MSPs, reflecting a diversified market approach. Strategic advantages include Cisco's backing, a comprehensive product portfolio, and strong brand recognition. The company maintains a well-structured resource and support ecosystem, facilitating customer engagement and retention. Growth indicators include new product offerings and active content updates. The partnership ecosystem is anchored by Cisco, with no other subsidiaries or partners explicitly listed on the site. The website's professional design and comprehensive content support effective market positioning and customer acquisition.

Security posture

Duo Security's website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced site-wide, presence of key security headers such as Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and Content-Security-Policy, and no exposed sensitive data in the HTML content. The use of reputable third-party services for error tracking (Sentry) and consent management (OneTrust) further supports security and compliance. However, the absence of DNSSEC implementation is a minor gap in DNS security. No explicit security policy or incident response information is found on the site, nor is there a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file, which are recommended best practices for transparency and incident handling. Overall, the site is secure for visitors and customers, with room for improvement in public security communications and DNS security.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and customer trust.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party libraries and scripts to avoid vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance data retention policy disclosures related to analytics and user data for improved privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web standards including HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript, with integration of JSON-LD structured data for SEO and business information. Hosting is provided via Amazon AWS, indicated by the DNS nameservers. The site uses Cisco's Tealium Tag Manager for analytics and tracking, OneTrust for cookie consent management, Wistia for video content, and Sentry for error monitoring. Performance is optimized with asynchronous script loading and responsive design for mobile devices. Accessibility features such as skip navigation links and ARIA attributes are present, supporting usability. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. The technical implementation is robust, with good SEO and security practices, though enabling DNSSEC and publishing additional security documentation would further strengthen the technical posture.
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.
