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

MakeShot.ai is a unified AI content creation platform offering professional-grade AI video and image generation services through multiple premium models such as Veo 3, Sora 2, and Nano Banana. The platform targets professional content creators, marketing teams, filmmakers, and businesses seeking high-quality, production-ready AI-generated media. The website demonstrates a modern technical infrastructure leveraging Next.js, React, and Cloudflare DNS, with good mobile optimization and fast performance. However, the absence of privacy and cookie policies, as well as security headers, indicates gaps in privacy compliance and security best practices. The domain WHOIS data is privacy-protected and shows an unusual future creation date, which may be a data anomaly but warrants monitoring. Overall, the platform presents a professional and trustworthy front but should improve transparency and compliance documentation to enhance trust and security posture.

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

6 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 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

  3. 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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

MakeShot.ai positions itself as a cost-effective alternative to subscribing to multiple AI content generation services by unifying several leading AI models in one platform. This approach offers competitive advantages such as consolidated billing, asset management, and side-by-side model comparison. The business model is subscription-based with tiered plans offering credits for video and image generation. The target market includes social media managers, marketers, YouTubers, filmmakers, and e-commerce businesses. The platform emphasizes commercial usage rights and professional-grade output, indicating a focus on serious creators and enterprises. The use of privacy protection in domain registration is typical for startups protecting early-stage business information. The lack of explicit contact information and compliance pages suggests the company is either early-stage or prioritizes digital-first engagement.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Cloudflare DNS, which provides a baseline of security and performance. However, no explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. The absence of published security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms limits transparency and preparedness for security incidents. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified in the provided content. The domain's clientTransferProhibited status is a positive indicator against unauthorized domain transfers. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing security headers, publishing security policies, and establishing incident response channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  2. Implement and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security.
  4. Provide clear contact information including security incident response and vulnerability disclosure contacts.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to avoid vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React/Next.js framework, leveraging server-side rendering and optimized asset loading for performance. It uses Cloudflare for DNS and likely CDN services, enhancing global delivery speed and security. The site includes advanced UI components such as Toastify for notifications and integrates analytics tools like Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity for user behavior tracking. Mobile responsiveness and accessibility are well addressed. However, the lack of visible security headers and compliance documentation indicates areas for technical improvement. The domain WHOIS data anomaly (future creation date) should be verified for accuracy. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust and modern but requires enhancements in security and compliance transparency.
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.
