The company targets a broad audience including remote teams, customer support, sales, marketing, HR, and product teams, positioning itself as a trusted solution with enterprise-grade support and integrations. Technically, the website is built on Webflow CMS, leveraging modern analytics and tracking tools like Segment, Google Analytics, Mixpanel, Amplitude, and FullStory, hosted via Cloudflare and AWS Cloudfront, ensuring fast performance and mobile optimization.

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

3 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 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

  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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Kipwise is positioned as a technology company delivering a knowledge management SaaS product with AI enhancements. Its business model is subscription-based, targeting medium-sized to enterprise customers globally. The company demonstrates strong market presence with over 100 countries served, investor backing from Techstars and Icebreaker, and a focus on integrations with popular platforms like Slack and Google Drive. The product's key differentiators include AI knowledge suggestions and built-in workflows to enhance team collaboration and productivity. The website content and testimonials reinforce Kipwise's credibility and customer satisfaction. The company appears to be growing steadily with a clear focus on remote and distributed teams, reflecting current market trends.

Security posture

The security maturity of Kipwise's website is good, with HTTPS enforced and domain registration protections enabled. The use of reputable third-party services such as Sentry for error monitoring and Cloudflare for DNS and CDN services adds to the security robustness. However, the absence of DNSSEC and lack of published security or incident response policies indicate areas for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the website content. The extensive use of tracking and analytics tools suggests a need for enhanced privacy controls and transparency. Overall, the security posture supports business operations but would benefit from formalized policies and additional DNS security measures.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement a cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  3. Publish a formal security policy and incident response plan accessible on the website.
  4. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  5. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Webflow CMS, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries and analytics platforms including Segment, Google Analytics, Mixpanel, Amplitude, FullStory, and Sentry. Hosting and CDN services are provided by Cloudflare and AWS Cloudfront, ensuring fast load times and global availability. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and uses Google Fonts for typography. The technical implementation is modern and well-structured, with no broken elements detected. However, the lack of DNSSEC and some missing security headers represent minor technical debt. The extensive use of third-party tracking scripts indicates a need for careful privacy management. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid and supports a high-quality user experience.
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.
