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

Mailgrader.com is a recently launched (2024) marketing tool by NP Digital designed to provide free, comprehensive email campaign audits and actionable recommendations to improve campaign performance. The website targets marketers and businesses looking to optimize their email marketing strategies. It leverages modern frontend technologies such as React and Material UI, hosted behind Cloudflare DNS services, and integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics. The site offers a simple user experience with a clear call to action but lacks published privacy, cookie, or terms of service policies. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled but missing DNSSEC and security headers. Contact options are limited to a form and a link to Neil Patel's main contact page, with no direct emails or phone numbers listed.

Both readouts depend on the site's pages, which could not be loaded in this scan.

Priority findings

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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 business model is a free online tool aimed at generating leads and brand awareness for NP Digital, a known marketing agency. The tool's market position is as a value-added service to attract marketers interested in email optimization. The website content is professional and consistent with NP Digital's branding. The absence of detailed business contact information and policies suggests a focus on lead capture rather than direct sales. The partnership with Neil Patel's main domain reinforces credibility. Growth potential depends on expanding policy transparency and direct contact options.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Cloudflare DNS, which provides a baseline of security. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS reduces the overall security maturity. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is published, which limits transparency for security issues. The site does not expose sensitive data or show signs of vulnerabilities in the provided content. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies, which could pose regulatory risks especially under GDPR.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details.
  3. Add security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to improve protection against common web attacks.
  4. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve incident response transparency.
  5. Enhance contact information by adding verified company emails and phone numbers to improve trust and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern React-based frontend with Material UI components, ensuring a responsive and visually consistent user interface. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, providing CDN and DNS resilience. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and tracking, indicating moderate user tracking. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading and preconnect hints for fonts. SEO is supported by meta tags but lacks Open Graph or structured data markup. Accessibility is basic but could be improved with ARIA roles and better semantic markup. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but can benefit from enhanced security and privacy features.
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.
