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

GateKeeper is a technology-focused consent management platform designed to facilitate GDPR compliance for website owners and businesses. Developed and maintained by Ezoic, the platform is free to use and emphasizes speed, ease of setup, and compliance with the IAB TCF 2.0 framework. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image with clear messaging targeting businesses requiring consent management solutions. The platform supports multiple languages and integrates over 1000 vendors, including Google and IAB, positioning it as a competitive offering in the consent management market. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including Bootstrap for responsive design, Cloudflare for DNS and likely CDN services, and asynchronous script loading to optimize performance and Core Web Vitals. The site is well-optimized for SEO and mobile devices, with structured data implemented via JSON-LD. However, explicit security headers are not evident in the provided data, and DNSSEC is not enabled, representing areas for improvement. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS with strong domain registration protections (EPP locks) and uses reputable hosting infrastructure. There is no evidence of exposed sensitive data or vulnerabilities in the visible content. Privacy compliance is supported by an accessible privacy policy and integrated cookie consent mechanisms, though terms of service and incident response information are absent. No direct contact information or data protection officer details are provided, which could impact trust and compliance transparency. Overall, GateKeeper demonstrates a solid security posture and technical maturity appropriate for its business model and market segment. The absence of some compliance and security documentation suggests opportunities to enhance trust and regulatory adherence. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, publishing comprehensive security and incident response policies, and providing clearer contact channels to improve user confidence and compliance standing.

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

6 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

  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

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Twitter

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

GateKeeper operates as a free consent management platform developed by Ezoic, targeting website owners and businesses needing GDPR compliance solutions. Its market positioning leverages IAB TCF 2.0 accreditation and a focus on speed and customization. The business model is freemium-like, with no account requirement, likely aiming to build user base and brand recognition. The platform supports a broad vendor ecosystem and multiple languages, enhancing its competitive advantage. The parent company Ezoic is a known entity in digital advertising and website optimization, providing credibility. The lack of direct contact information and formal terms of service may limit enterprise adoption but suits smaller businesses and developers. Growth potential lies in expanding features, certifications, and compliance transparency. Partnerships appear limited to the parent company and standard technology providers.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain registration protected by multiple EPP status flags. Hosting and DNS via Cloudflare add resilience and performance benefits. However, the absence of DNSSEC and explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are present, limiting transparency for security researchers. Incident response and security policy documentation are missing, which could hinder rapid response to security events. Privacy compliance is supported by a privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism, aligning with GDPR requirements. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved by adopting additional security headers, enabling DNSSEC, and publishing security governance documents.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish explicit security headers including Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Create and publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response plan accessible on the website.
  4. Add clear contact information including security and support emails to enhance trust and compliance transparency.
  5. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including Bootstrap for responsive design and asynchronous JavaScript loading to optimize performance. DNS is managed via Cloudflare, providing robust DNS and CDN services. The site uses JSON-LD structured data for SEO and social media integration. Performance is fast with minimal impact on page rendering and Core Web Vitals. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO meta tags are properly configured. No CMS was detected, indicating a custom or static site architecture. The absence of DNSSEC and some security headers indicates minor technical debt in security hardening. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid, supporting a professional and performant user experience with room for security enhancements.
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.
