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

iubenda is a well-established technology company specializing in providing comprehensive compliance solutions for websites, apps, and organizations to meet global data privacy laws such as GDPR. Their offerings include privacy and cookie policy generators, cookie consent management, terms and conditions generators, and consent databases. The company has a strong market presence with over 150,000 clients since 2011 and maintains high trust indicators including certifications and positive reviews on Trustpilot and Capterra. Technically, the website employs modern JavaScript frameworks, integrates with multiple third-party services for analytics and user engagement, and implements a robust cookie consent mechanism with granular controls. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforcement and error monitoring, though explicit security headers and incident response contacts are not evident. The domain WHOIS data is missing, which slightly reduces trustworthiness but does not detract from the professional and comprehensive nature of the website and services. Overall, iubenda presents a mature, professional, and trustworthy compliance solution provider with room for improvement in domain transparency and explicit security disclosures.

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, 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 SaaS provider focused on legal compliance solutions. Their business model revolves around subscription-based services for privacy policies, cookie consent, and related compliance tools. The company targets website owners, app developers, enterprises, agencies, and advertisers needing to comply with privacy regulations globally. Their competitive advantage lies in offering an all-in-one, automated, and customizable compliance platform with extensive integrations and certifications. Revenue streams likely include subscription fees, affiliate commissions, and enterprise contracts. The company fosters partnerships through certification and referral programs, enhancing market reach. Growth indicators include a large client base and multi-language support. Strategic observations highlight a focus on compliance automation and user-friendly tools to address evolving privacy laws.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and use of nonce-based Content Security Policy elements. The cookie consent solution is comprehensive, supporting GDPR, LGPD, and other regulations with granular user controls. Error monitoring via Sentry is implemented with sanitization of sensitive data, indicating good operational security practices. However, the absence of explicit security headers like HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and security.txt files suggests areas for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, which could impact transparency and readiness perception. Overall, iubenda maintains a good security posture appropriate for its business but should enhance public security disclosures and domain registration transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish explicit 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 contact information.
  3. Enhance domain WHOIS transparency by ensuring accurate and publicly accessible registration data to improve trust.
  4. Add explicit contact information for security incidents and data protection officer to improve compliance and user trust.
  5. Regularly audit third-party integrations and update libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities and maintain compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-heavy front-end with integrations including RudderStack for analytics, Wistia for video hosting, Typeform for forms, and Google Tag Manager for marketing tags. The cookie consent mechanism is sophisticated, supporting multiple languages and granular user preferences. Accessibility features are implemented via an AI-powered widget. Performance is moderate with preloading and asynchronous script loading, though some scripts are loaded multiple times (e.g., iubenda.js). The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and clear navigation. No CMS is explicitly detected. Hosting provider details are not evident from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust and well-suited for a SaaS compliance platform, with opportunities to optimize script loading and enhance security headers.
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.
