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

LikeBtn.com is a mature technology company founded in 2013 that offers a popular like button widget service for websites. It supports multiple CMS platforms and languages, providing website owners with interactive voting buttons, real-time statistics, and social sharing capabilities. The company has a solid market presence with over 100,000 websites using its service and a referral program to incentivize growth. Technically, the website uses JavaScript, Bootstrap, and integrates with third-party sharing services like AddThis. However, the website suffers from a critical security issue: it lacks a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support, exposing users to potential risks. Additionally, no modern TLS protocols or security headers are implemented, and no cookie consent mechanism is present despite GDPR readiness claims. Business contact information is available via email and contact forms, but no phone numbers or physical addresses are provided. Overall, the site is functional and professionally designed but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and enhance trust.

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

5 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 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

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 company operates on a SaaS business model targeting website owners and developers who want to add social engagement features. Its competitive advantage lies in the extensive customization options, multiple themes, language support, and CMS plugins. Revenue streams include subscription plans ranging from free to premium tiers and a referral program offering 25% commission on payments. The company maintains partnerships with major payment processors such as PayPal, Zaypay, and WebMoney, and uses DigitalOcean for infrastructure. The presence of testimonials and a showcase indicates active customer engagement and marketing efforts. The business appears stable with consistent domain registration and moderate domain protection.

Security posture

The current security posture is weak due to the absence of HTTPS and SSL/TLS encryption, which is a critical vulnerability. The lack of security headers and modern TLS protocols further exacerbates the risk. While SPF records are correctly configured for email, no incident response or security policy information is publicly available. The site does not implement cookie consent mechanisms, which may lead to GDPR compliance issues. No known vulnerabilities or subdomain takeover risks were detected. Immediate remediation is required to install a valid SSL certificate, enable HTTPS, and implement security best practices to safeguard user interactions and data.

Recommendations

  1. Install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or 1.3) and disable deprecated protocols to improve encryption security.
  3. Implement HTTP security headers such as HSTS, Content Security Policy, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  4. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  5. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan to enhance transparency and preparedness.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using standard web technologies including JavaScript and Bootstrap, with integration of third-party sharing tools like AddThis and social media widgets from Twitter and Facebook. It supports asynchronous loading and REST API for statistics retrieval. The site is hosted behind Cloudflare DNS but does not leverage Cloudflare's SSL or security features. Performance is suboptimal with a high load time and large page size, indicating potential for optimization. The site is mobile-friendly and offers extensive customization options for the like button widget. Technical debt includes lack of SSL, missing security headers, and no accessibility enhancements beyond basic levels.
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.
