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. 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 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

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.

Business context

Business profile

GeekHunter operates in the technology sector, specifically in recruitment and talent acquisition services. Its business model revolves around providing a SaaS platform combined with recruitment services, targeting companies seeking tech professionals. The platform's market position is strong in Brazil, supported by a decade-long presence and partnerships with major companies. The company leverages a modern tech stack and digital marketing tools to maintain competitive advantage. However, the absence of visible privacy and terms policies may affect compliance perception. The company appears to focus on quality and efficiency in recruitment, with key services including talent database access, recruitment service, and ATS software. No parent or subsidiary companies were identified from the data.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a strong SSL configuration and uses security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and others, indicating a robust security posture. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of Cloudflare DNS and CDN services adds an additional layer of protection. However, the lack of publicly available security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness. Privacy compliance is partial due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by publishing formal security and privacy documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with explicit GDPR compliance statements and consent mechanisms.
  2. Add terms of service and security incident response information accessible from the website footer or dedicated pages.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Provide clear contact information including security and abuse contacts to improve trust and incident handling.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and ensure compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including React with Next.js framework and Chakra UI for styling. It is hosted behind Cloudflare, which provides DNS, CDN, and security services. The site loads efficiently with optimized images and videos, and is mobile responsive with good accessibility features. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph tags, and hreflang attributes for multilingual support. Analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and LinkedIn Insight Tag are integrated for user tracking and marketing optimization. No CMS was detected, indicating a custom-built solution. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern, scalable, and performant with minor gaps in privacy compliance.
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.
