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

Iliad is a small technology company founded in 2022, offering an expressive AI art generation platform focused on creating custom textures, images, and 3D models with granular creative control. The business operates on a freemium SaaS model, providing a free tier with limited daily access and a paid subscription for full features. The website is professionally designed with a modern tech stack including SvelteKit, FontAwesome, and analytics tools like PostHog, hosted behind Cloudflare DNS services. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses WHOIS privacy protection, which is appropriate for a small startup. However, it lacks DNSSEC, explicit security headers, and a cookie consent mechanism, which are areas for improvement. No contact emails or phone numbers are publicly available, and there is no published security policy or incident response information, which may impact trust and compliance. Overall, the website is accessible, well-structured, and technically modern, but could enhance its privacy compliance and security posture by implementing cookie consent, security headers, and publishing relevant policies. The domain registration is consistent with the business profile and shows no suspicious indicators. Strategic improvements in security and transparency would strengthen trust and compliance.

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

Iliad targets creative professionals and digital artists seeking AI-assisted tools for texture and image generation. Its freemium SaaS business model with a $20/month pro tier positions it in a niche market of AI art generation with granular control features. The company leverages modern web technologies and analytics to deliver a performant and mobile-optimized user experience. The use of privacy-protected WHOIS registration is typical for startups. The absence of direct contact information and limited privacy compliance features suggest an early-stage company focusing on product development. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries. Growth potential exists in expanding compliance, security, and customer support capabilities.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protection enabled. However, the absence of DNSSEC, security headers (such as CSP, HSTS), and a cookie consent mechanism indicates gaps in security best practices and privacy compliance. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of published security policies or incident response contacts limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. The use of PostHog analytics introduces moderate user tracking, but privacy compliance is basic. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small startup but requires enhancements to meet higher compliance standards like GDPR fully.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers including Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  4. Publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  5. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies, primarily SvelteKit, which supports fast performance and excellent mobile optimization. It uses FontAwesome for icons and integrates third-party services such as PostHog for analytics, Sentry for error tracking, and Mux Player for media playback. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, providing CDN and DNS resilience. The site includes proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO and rich search results. Accessibility features are basic but present. There is no detected CMS, indicating a custom or framework-based build. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and well-implemented 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.
