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

FirstPromoter operates as a SaaS affiliate marketing software provider targeting subscription businesses and SaaS companies. The platform offers affiliate tracking and integrates with major payment processors such as Stripe, Paddle, Recurly, Braintree, and Chargebee, positioning itself as a modern and reliable tool in the affiliate marketing space. The website content is professional and well-structured, reflecting a focused business model on subscription-based affiliate marketing solutions. Technically, the website is built using Framer, a modern web design and CMS platform, and employs JavaScript-based tracking tools including LinkedIn Insight and ProfitWell for analytics and marketing purposes. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and SEO practices, though accessibility features are basic. Performance is moderate, with no critical technical issues detected in the provided content. From a security perspective, the site lacks visible security headers and explicit privacy or cookie policies, which are important for compliance and user trust. The SSL configuration and hosting provider details are not available from the data. No WHOIS registration data is found for the domain, which raises concerns about domain legitimacy and registration consistency. However, the professional presentation and integrations suggest a legitimate business operation. Overall, the website presents a moderate risk profile with room for improvement in security posture and privacy compliance. Strategic recommendations include implementing security headers, publishing comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, verifying domain registration status, and enhancing contact and incident response information to build greater trust and compliance.

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

5 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"

    • 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

  3. 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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

FirstPromoter is positioned as a niche SaaS provider specializing in affiliate marketing software tailored for subscription businesses. Its competitive advantage lies in seamless integration with popular payment platforms, enabling easy affiliate tracking and scaling. The business model is subscription-based SaaS, targeting SaaS companies and subscription services seeking to grow via affiliate channels. The website content and integrations indicate a focus on technology sector clients, with a small company size profile. The absence of detailed company registration or contact information limits full business intelligence but suggests a startup or early-stage company. The marketing ecosystem includes LinkedIn and ProfitWell, indicating a data-driven growth approach.

Security posture

The security maturity of the website is moderate but incomplete. The absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options is a notable gap. No explicit privacy or cookie policies are present, which may lead to GDPR and other compliance issues. The lack of WHOIS data for the domain is a significant concern for domain legitimacy and trust. Tracking technologies are present but do not appear excessive. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not visible, indicating limited readiness for security incidents. Overall, the site would benefit from enhanced security controls, transparency, and compliance documentation to improve its security posture and user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to protect against common web attacks.
  2. Publish detailed privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR and privacy compliance and increase user trust.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure domain legitimacy and consistency with business claims.
  4. Add clear contact information and establish incident response channels for security and abuse reporting.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments to identify and remediate potential risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Framer platform, leveraging modern JavaScript and CSS technologies. It integrates third-party analytics and marketing tools such as LinkedIn Insight and ProfitWell, indicating a focus on data-driven marketing. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. However, the lack of detected security headers and unknown SSL configuration represent technical risks. Performance is moderate, with no critical errors or broken elements detected in the HTML content. The technical stack is modern but would benefit from enhanced security configurations and clearer hosting information.
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.
