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

7 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

Infolinks demonstrates strong market positioning with a broad publisher network and a focus on intent-based advertising. Their competitive advantage lies in exclusive placements and high viewability metrics, appealing to advertisers seeking efficient audience engagement. Revenue streams likely include ad placements and referral programs. The company targets digital publishers and advertisers globally, supported by a multilingual website and extensive social media presence. Partnerships are evident through dedicated publisher and advertiser platforms. The company has been operational since 2007, indicating established market experience. However, the absence of WHOIS registration data introduces some uncertainty about domain registration details.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and employs secure forms with validation, indicating a baseline security posture. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No explicit security policy or incident response information is published, which limits transparency and preparedness perception. Tracking pixels from Facebook, Twitter, and Google Analytics are present, but no cookie consent mechanism was detected, potentially impacting privacy compliance. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved with enhanced headers, published policies, and consent mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Add a visible cookie consent banner to comply with privacy regulations and inform users about tracking.
  3. Publish a detailed security policy and incident response plan to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with Yoast SEO plugin, integrating modern marketing and analytics technologies such as Google Tag Manager, Facebook SDK, and Twitter Ads. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and optimized images. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design and appropriate meta tags. SEO is well implemented with canonical URLs, Open Graph tags, and JSON-LD structured data describing the organization and website. No hosting provider details were identified from the content. The technical stack is mature but could benefit from improved accessibility and security header implementation to reduce technical risks.
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.
