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

Language Map is a recently launched technology-focused website (established in 2023) that offers users an interactive platform to explore and visualize the connections between languages they speak. The site targets a general audience interested in language and cultural exploration. The business model and market position are not explicitly detailed, but the service appears to be a niche educational or cultural tool. Technically, the website is built using modern frameworks such as SvelteKit and is hosted with Cloudflare DNS services, indicating a contemporary and scalable infrastructure. The site demonstrates good design quality, mobile optimization, and SEO practices, although accessibility features are basic. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled but lacks advanced security headers and DNSSEC. No privacy or cookie policies are present, which is a compliance gap. Overall, the site is functional and professional but would benefit from enhanced security and privacy measures.

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

7 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

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 website operates in the technology sector with a focus on language mapping and cultural education. It likely targets language enthusiasts, educators, and learners globally. The business appears to be a small-scale operation without visible parent or subsidiary companies. No direct revenue streams or partnerships are evident from the data. The lack of contact information and policies suggests an early-stage or minimalistic business approach. The site’s branding is consistent and content quality is good, supporting a positive user experience. Market positioning is likely niche with potential for growth if expanded with additional services or partnerships.

Security posture

The security maturity level is basic to moderate. HTTPS is properly implemented, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response policies are found, indicating limited preparedness for security incidents. The site does not expose sensitive data or show signs of vulnerable libraries in the provided data. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the security culture appears nascent and would benefit from adopting standard security best practices and compliance frameworks.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to protect against DNS spoofing and improve domain security.
  2. Implement essential security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to enhance GDPR compliance and user trust.
  4. Add clear contact information including support or business emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response plan to prepare for potential security incidents.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript framework (SvelteKit) and is hosted with Cloudflare DNS, indicating a contemporary and scalable technical infrastructure. The site loads multiple JavaScript modules and CSS assets efficiently, suggesting good performance. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO metadata including Open Graph and Twitter cards are properly configured. However, accessibility features are basic and could be improved. No CMS is detected, implying a custom or static site generation approach. The absence of analytics or tracking scripts suggests minimal data collection, which aligns with privacy best practices but limits marketing insights. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but could be enhanced with accessibility improvements and security hardening.
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.
