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

Farox is a cooperative software development company based in Argentina, specializing in professional services related to Data Science, Machine Learning, high concurrency systems, and full-stack development. The company positions itself as a tech leader in the cooperative sector with over a decade of experience. Their website showcases key services such as product development, software consultancy, and team extension, targeting businesses seeking expert technology partners. The digital infrastructure is modern, leveraging React and Next.js frameworks hosted on AWS, with a professional and mobile-optimized website design. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer protection, but lacks advanced DNS security and security headers. Privacy compliance is limited due to absence of explicit policies and consent mechanisms. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional, though improvements in privacy and security disclosures are recommended.

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

10 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

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

The company operates as a cooperative, emphasizing collaboration and alternative business models. Their market positioning is strong within the cooperative tech sector, offering tailored software solutions and consultancy. They maintain active social media channels and partnerships with cooperative organizations, enhancing their ecosystem. The business model focuses on expert team integration and strategic tech development, appealing to medium-sized enterprises and organizations requiring scalable tech solutions. Growth indicators include a diverse portfolio of case studies and a clear value proposition around technology allyship. The partnership ecosystem includes recognized cooperative platforms, reinforcing credibility.

Security posture

Farox demonstrates a baseline security maturity with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer lock enabled. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options indicates room for improvement. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are publicly available, which could hinder rapid response to security events. The lack of privacy and cookie policies also presents compliance gaps, particularly under GDPR. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but would benefit from enhanced transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to protect against DNS spoofing and improve domain security.
  2. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with user consent mechanisms to ensure GDPR compliance.
  3. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance browser security.
  4. Publish an incident response plan and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve security transparency and readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including React and Next.js, hosted on AWS infrastructure. The site features responsive design and multimedia content such as WebM videos, indicating a focus on user experience. Performance is moderate with efficient use of CSS and JavaScript chunks. SEO is basic with meta descriptions and titles present but could be enhanced with structured data and richer metadata. Accessibility features are minimal but the site maintains clear navigation and consistent branding. There is no evidence of a CMS, suggesting a custom or framework-based implementation. Technical risks include lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers which could be addressed to improve resilience.
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.
