71/100

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

FortGuard, a product of HYVOR based in France, offers a state-of-the-art spam detection API designed for developers and website owners seeking to prevent spam content effectively. The service includes advanced features such as human-like accuracy through multiple large language models, language detection, sentiment analysis, and IP geolocation capabilities. The availability of a WordPress plugin facilitates easy integration for WordPress websites, enhancing its accessibility and market reach. The business model is subscription-based with a free trial, targeting a niche market in spam detection and content moderation services. Technically, the website is built using modern JavaScript frameworks, specifically Svelte, and is hosted on Cloudflare infrastructure, ensuring fast performance and good mobile optimization. The site demonstrates good SEO practices and basic accessibility features. The integration of Crisp Chat indicates a minimal level of user interaction tracking, aligned with privacy-first principles. However, some security best practices such as DNSSEC and security headers could be improved. From a security perspective, the website enforces HTTPS and maintains a privacy-first approach by not storing or sharing user data. The domain registration details are consistent with the business claims, enhancing trustworthiness. There is no evidence of security policy documentation or incident response contacts, which could be areas for future enhancement. No critical vulnerabilities or suspicious content were detected. Overall, FortGuard presents a professional, secure, and privacy-conscious service with a solid technical foundation. Strategic improvements in security headers, cookie consent, and incident response transparency would further strengthen its security posture and compliance standing.

Priority findings

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  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 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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: 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

FortGuard operates in the technology sector, focusing on spam detection and IP geolocation APIs. Its competitive advantage lies in leveraging multiple large language models for high accuracy and context awareness, combined with privacy-first data handling. The business targets developers and website owners, particularly those using WordPress, as evidenced by the dedicated plugin. Revenue streams likely include subscription fees post free trial. The company maintains an active presence on GitHub, Discord, and LinkedIn, indicating engagement with developer and user communities. The recent domain registration aligns with a startup or new product launch phase. The absence of phone contact suggests a lean operation focused on digital communication. The partnership ecosystem is not explicitly detailed, but integration with WordPress and use of Cloudflare infrastructure indicate strategic technology partnerships.

Security posture

FortGuard demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and the domain status clientTransferProhibited protects against unauthorized transfers. The privacy-first policy and no data retention stance reduce data breach risks. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options represents gaps in defense-in-depth. No explicit security policy or incident response information is published, which may impact user trust and regulatory compliance. The minimal use of tracking and absence of cookie consent mechanisms align with privacy principles but may require enhancement for GDPR cookie compliance. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from formalized policies and technical hardening.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Add a cookie consent mechanism to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  4. Publish a detailed security policy and incident response plan accessible on the website.
  5. Consider adding a dedicated security contact email (e.g., security@fortguard.io) for vulnerability disclosures and incident reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript framework (Svelte) and is hosted on Cloudflare, providing good performance and scalability. The site is mobile optimized and has a clean, professional design. The use of modulepreload and chunked JavaScript indicates an optimized loading strategy. Integration with third-party services like Crisp Chat is minimal and privacy-conscious. No CMS is detected, suggesting a custom or static site approach. The domain is newly registered but consistent with the product launch timeline. The absence of DNSSEC and security headers indicates some technical debt in security hardening. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and well-implemented with room for security improvements.
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.
