Leafworks is a small technology company specializing in providing middleware solutions that integrate Zendesk with CRM, ERP, and eCommerce systems. Their website focuses on promoting their Zendesk API middleware product, which automates workflows and enhances support capabilities for businesses using Zendesk. The company targets business clients seeking seamless integration and automation of their customer service platforms. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using Elementor and Yoast SEO, indicating a modern and maintainable infrastructure. The presence of Google Tag Manager and CookieFirst consent scripts shows a moderate level of digital maturity and compliance awareness. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and uses best practices like cookie consent, but lacks explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and security headers, which are areas for improvement. Overall, the website is professional, well-structured, and trustworthy, but could enhance privacy and security transparency to further strengthen its posture.

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.

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.

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
Leafworks operates in a niche market providing integration middleware for Zendesk users, enabling connections to CRM, ERP, and eCommerce platforms. Their business model is B2B software services focused on automation and data synchronization. The company leverages video content on YouTube to demonstrate product capabilities, enhancing customer engagement. Their market position appears specialized with a focus on technical integration solutions. The website's SEO and content quality support good visibility, though the absence of detailed contact information and legal policies may limit trust for some clients. The hosting and domain registration are consistent with a legitimate small business based in Germany. Leafworks could benefit from expanding transparency around compliance and security to appeal to enterprise clients.
Security posture
The website demonstrates a solid baseline security posture with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. There is no published security policy or incident response information, which limits transparency and preparedness perception. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found, indicating a gap in responsible disclosure practices. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved by adding formal security documentation, headers, and incident response contacts.
Recommendations
Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve compliance and user trust.
Add security headers such as CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits to maintain and improve website security and compliance.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using Elementor for page building and Yoast SEO for search engine optimization. It employs modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery and Slick Slider for UI components. Google Tag Manager is integrated for analytics and marketing tracking, with a cookie consent mechanism via CookieFirst ensuring GDPR compliance. The hosting provider is likely Kasserver based on nameserver data. Performance is moderate with lazy loading scripts implemented to optimize load times. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO practices are well implemented with proper meta tags and structured data in JSON-LD format. Technical risks are minimal but could be reduced further by implementing additional security headers and formalizing privacy and security policies.
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.
