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.

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 targets ecommerce businesses and marketers seeking to optimize website engagement and email marketing effectiveness. Its SaaS business model leverages recurring subscriptions and app integrations, notably with Shopify. Positive customer testimonials and industry awards underscore its competitive advantages in ease of use, customer support, and value. The product ecosystem includes complementary offerings like Getform and the Aurora Shopify theme, indicating a broader strategic portfolio. The company operates under Getwebcraft Limited, with no evident subsidiaries. Market positioning is strong within the technology and ecommerce sectors, supported by a medium-sized operational scale and a focus on continuous product improvement and customer engagement.

Security posture

Getsitecontrol maintains a good security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain status flags that prevent unauthorized domain transfers or deletions. The absence of DNSSEC is a minor gap that could be addressed to enhance DNS security. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, which could be improved to increase transparency and readiness. The site uses reputable analytics and error tracking services, but the lack of a cookie consent mechanism may pose compliance risks under GDPR and similar regulations. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Overall, the security maturity is solid but could benefit from enhanced policy disclosures and DNS security improvements.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and display a cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response plan to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure privacy compliance and minimize data exposure.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct periodic security assessments to maintain high standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built with modern web technologies including JavaScript, Google Tag Manager, Yandex Metrika, and Sentry for error tracking. It is hosted on a Cloudflare DNS infrastructure, contributing to fast performance and reliable uptime. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good accessibility practices. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. The CMS is not explicitly identified, suggesting a custom or proprietary solution. The technical implementation is robust with no broken elements detected. Opportunities exist to improve DNS security and privacy compliance mechanisms.
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.
