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

iubenda is a well-established SaaS company specializing in providing comprehensive compliance solutions for websites, apps, and organizations globally. Their offerings include privacy and cookie policy generators, cookie consent management, terms and conditions creation, consent databases, and other privacy management tools. The company targets businesses needing to comply with global data privacy laws such as GDPR, CCPA, and others. With over 150,000 clients since 2011 and strong trust indicators like high Trustpilot and Capterra ratings, iubenda holds a solid market position in the privacy compliance technology sector. Technically, the website employs modern JavaScript frameworks, integrates advanced analytics and error monitoring tools, and demonstrates excellent performance and mobile optimization. Security-wise, iubenda enforces HTTPS, uses content security policies with nonce, and implements granular cookie consent mechanisms, reflecting a mature security posture. However, explicit security policies and incident response contacts are not publicly disclosed, which could be improved. The WHOIS data for the domain is missing, likely due to privacy protection, which is common for companies in this sector. Overall, iubenda presents a professional, trustworthy, and technically sound online presence with minor areas for enhancement in transparency and incident response readiness.

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.

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

Business profile

iubenda operates in the technology sector, focusing on privacy compliance solutions for digital businesses. Their business model is subscription-based SaaS, offering modular compliance tools that cater to various industries and regulatory requirements. The company leverages partnerships through certification and referral programs to expand market reach. Their client base includes notable brands across multiple sectors, indicating strong competitive advantages and market trust. The company emphasizes ease of use, automation, and comprehensive coverage of privacy laws, positioning itself as a one-stop compliance provider. Growth indicators include a large client base, multi-language support, and continuous product expansion. Strategic observations highlight the importance of maintaining regulatory updates and enhancing customer support channels to sustain leadership.

Security posture

iubenda demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, use of Content Security Policy with nonce values, and integration of privacy-focused error tracking and analytics tools. The website includes a sophisticated cookie consent management system that respects user preferences and complies with GDPR and other regulations. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. However, the absence of a publicly accessible security policy or incident response contact information limits transparency. There is no evidence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file. Overall, iubenda's security practices align well with industry standards for SaaS providers handling privacy compliance, but could benefit from enhanced public security documentation and incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security controls and practices.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information and establish a vulnerability disclosure program.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability reporting.
  4. Enhance transparency by including data retention policies and privacy compliance details.
  5. Maintain and regularly update cookie consent mechanisms to align with evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website employs a modern technology stack including JavaScript, jQuery, and third-party integrations such as Wistia for video, RudderStack for analytics, and Typeform for forms. It uses asynchronous script loading and content security policies with nonce to enhance security. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features. Performance is fast with preloading of critical assets and efficient resource management. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The technical infrastructure supports a high-quality user experience and robust compliance functionality, though opportunities exist to improve documentation and incident response mechanisms.
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.
