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

Instant.so is a small SaaS business offering a no-code, all-visual landing page builder specifically designed for Shopify merchants. The website serves as a marketing landing page promoting the app available on the Shopify app store. The technical infrastructure leverages modern web technologies including the Framer framework, Google Tag Manager, and Segment analytics, hosted behind Cloudflare DNS services. The site is well-designed with good mobile optimization and basic SEO practices, though accessibility features are minimal. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protection enabled, but lacks DNSSEC and security headers. Privacy compliance is weak due to absence of privacy and cookie policies and no consent mechanisms. Business credibility is moderate but would benefit from clearer contact information and trust signals. Overall, the site is functional and professional but has room for improvement in privacy and security transparency.

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 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

  3. 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

The company targets Shopify store owners seeking easy-to-use landing page solutions without coding. Its business model is SaaS distributed via the Shopify app store, focusing on e-commerce sector. Market positioning is niche with emphasis on visual, no-code editing. Revenue likely derives from app subscriptions or usage fees. The company appears small and relatively new, founded in 2020, with no public parent or subsidiary relationships. The marketing ecosystem includes analytics and tracking tools but lacks visible partnerships or certifications. Growth potential depends on Shopify merchant adoption and app store visibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security maturity level with HTTPS and domain transfer lock in place. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response policies are published, limiting transparency. The use of third-party analytics scripts introduces moderate tracking but no obvious vulnerabilities. Privacy compliance is insufficient, lacking GDPR indicators or cookie consent. The site would benefit from implementing security best practices and publishing clear policies to improve trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security.
  2. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with user consent mechanisms.
  3. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Provide clear contact information including support and security incident reporting channels.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using the Framer framework with extensive use of web fonts and modern CSS. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Segment for analytics and tracking. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, providing performance and security benefits. The site loads moderately fast and is mobile optimized. However, accessibility features are basic and SEO optimization is minimal. There is no detected CMS, indicating a static or custom-built site. Technical debt appears low but improvements in security headers and privacy compliance are needed to reduce risk and enhance user trust.
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.
