The technical infrastructure is modern, utilizing Next.js and Chakra UI frameworks, hosted on AWS, and optimized for performance and mobile responsiveness. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and domain transfer protections, though improvements such as DNSSEC and security headers are recommended.

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

5 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 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. 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.

  4. 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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

Hightouch targets marketing and data teams seeking advanced personalization and AI-driven decisioning solutions. The business model is SaaS-based, offering a composable CDP platform that integrates with various data sources. The company benefits from a consistent brand presence and trust signals such as domain longevity and verified social proof (Facebook and Zoom domain verifications). The lack of explicit contact information and privacy disclosures may limit trust for some users. The company appears to be medium-sized with a focus on technology sector clients. No parent or subsidiary relationships were identified from the data provided.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer protection. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security represents areas for enhancement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Incident response and security policies are not publicly disclosed, which could be a gap in transparency and readiness. Privacy compliance is limited, with no GDPR-specific indicators or cookie consent mechanisms found. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be strengthened to meet higher compliance and trust standards.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements and consent mechanisms.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to improve browser security.
  4. Publish an incident response policy and provide dedicated security contact channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ emails).
  5. Include clear and verified contact information (email, phone, physical address) to improve business credibility and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React-based framework (Next.js) with Chakra UI for styling, indicating a contemporary and maintainable codebase. Hosting on AWS DNS infrastructure supports scalability and reliability. The site uses optimized images and preloading strategies for performance. Accessibility and SEO are well considered with appropriate meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or headless architecture. The technical implementation supports a fast, responsive, and user-friendly experience, though security-related technical enhancements are advised.
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.
