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

iubenda is a well-established SaaS provider specializing in compliance solutions for websites, apps, and organizations globally. Their platform offers a comprehensive suite of tools including privacy policy generation, cookie consent management, terms and conditions creation, and data processing activity registers. The company targets businesses needing to comply with global data privacy laws such as GDPR, CCPA, and others, positioning itself as a market leader with a strong reputation evidenced by high Trustpilot and Capterra ratings. The website is professionally designed, multilingual, and optimized for user experience and accessibility. Technically, iubenda employs modern JavaScript frameworks and integrates advanced analytics and error monitoring tools like RudderStack and Sentry. Their cookie consent mechanism is robust, supporting granular user preferences and compliance with multiple privacy regulations. The site is fast, mobile-optimized, and SEO-friendly, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. From a security perspective, iubenda enforces HTTPS and uses content security policies with nonce values. While explicit security headers are not visible in the provided data, the platform demonstrates good security hygiene with no exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries detected. However, the absence of a public security.txt and incident response contacts suggests room for improvement in transparency and vulnerability management. Overall, iubenda presents a low-risk profile with strong business credibility and privacy compliance. The lack of WHOIS data is likely due to privacy protection services, which is reasonable for this business type. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security header implementation, publishing vulnerability disclosure policies, and providing clearer incident response contacts to further strengthen trust and security posture.

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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  2. 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

iubenda operates in the technology sector as a compliance SaaS provider, serving a global audience of website and app owners requiring legal and privacy compliance solutions. Their competitive advantage lies in offering an all-in-one platform that automates privacy policy updates, cookie consent management, and legal document generation. Revenue streams likely include subscription plans and enterprise solutions. The company supports agencies, enterprises, publishers, advertisers, and app developers, indicating a broad partnership ecosystem. Growth indicators include multilingual support, extensive product offerings, and active certification and referral programs. The website's professional content and high ratings reflect a strong market presence and customer trust.

Security posture

The security maturity of iubenda is moderate to high. The site enforces HTTPS and uses nonce-based content security policies to mitigate script injection risks. Integration with Sentry for error monitoring and RudderStack for analytics indicates proactive operational security. Cookie consent management aligns with GDPR and other privacy laws, demonstrating compliance awareness. However, the absence of explicit security headers like HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and a published security.txt file limits transparency and incident response readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Overall, iubenda maintains a solid security posture appropriate for its business but could enhance its security framework documentation and incident response mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce additional security headers such as HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response information.
  3. Provide explicit contact information for the Data Protection Officer or security team to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerable libraries are included.
  5. Enhance user education on privacy and security features through accessible documentation and support channels.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-based tech stack including jQuery, RudderStack analytics, Sentry error tracking, and integrations with third-party services like Typeform and Leadinfo. The presence of CSP nonces and asynchronous script loading indicates attention to performance and security. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features such as an AI-powered accessibility widget. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Hosting details are not explicit, but the use of CDN domains suggests a distributed content delivery approach. Performance is fast with preloading of critical assets. Technical risks are minimal, though the lack of some security headers and incident response info could be addressed.
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.
