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

Manaminds is a global distributor specializing in digital gift cards, video games, and software, serving online retail and gaming partners worldwide. Founded in 2018, the company leverages a team with over 20 years of combined industry experience to provide sourcing, wholesale distribution, and API integration services. Their market position is supported by partnerships with leading global brands and positive client testimonials. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with Elementor, hosted on HostGator, and uses modern analytics tools like Google Analytics and Tag Manager. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly, though performance is moderate. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled but lacks DNSSEC and security headers, which are recommended for improvement. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the business credibility is strong with clear contact information and trust signals. The domain registration is consistent and appropriate for the business age, indicating legitimacy.

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

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  2. 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';…

  3. 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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

Manaminds operates in the technology and e-commerce sectors, focusing on wholesale distribution of digital products. Their business model includes direct sourcing from publishers and distributors, bulk sales to online retailers, and API integration for instant inventory updates. The company targets online retailers and gaming partners globally, positioning itself as a reliable partner with a growing network. Their partnership ecosystem includes major brands like Nintendo, Steam, and PlayStation. The website content and testimonials reflect a professional and trustworthy operation, though the absence of formal privacy and security policies suggests areas for maturity. Growth indicators include a diverse product portfolio and API services, supporting scalability.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no visible sensitive data exposure. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response policies are published, which limits transparency and preparedness. Privacy compliance is insufficient, lacking GDPR indicators and cookie consent mechanisms. The use of reputable hosting and domain registration protections supports trust, but technical security enhancements are recommended to mitigate risks and improve compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to secure DNS resolution and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to protect against common web attacks.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit GDPR compliance and consent mechanisms.
  4. Establish and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to avoid vulnerabilities and improve performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS with Elementor page builder and uses a variety of plugins for enhanced functionality. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Analytics for tracking and marketing purposes. Hosting is provided by HostGator, indicated by nameservers. The site is mobile responsive and SEO optimized with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts improving load times. However, the lack of DNSSEC and security headers indicates technical debt in security hardening. Accessibility features are basic, and there is room for improvement in privacy compliance and security best practices.
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.
