The website marketingautomation.services serves as a login portal for Constant Contact, a well-known marketing automation platform. It provides users access to marketing automation tools primarily targeting business users and marketers. The site integrates Okta for authentication, ensuring a secure login process. The presence of official Constant Contact branding and links to their legal pages supports the legitimacy of the service. The technical infrastructure includes modern JavaScript libraries and frameworks such as Okta Sign-In Widget, jQuery, Bootstrap, and Pendo analytics, indicating a mature digital environment. However, some security headers are not explicitly visible in the provided data, suggesting room for improvement in security hardening.

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 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. 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.

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  4. 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

Constant Contact operates in the marketing automation technology sector, offering SaaS solutions for email marketing and user account management. The business model focuses on subscription-based access to marketing tools. The website targets business users and marketers seeking marketing automation capabilities. The partnership with SharpSpring, referenced in the site content, suggests an ecosystem of integrated marketing services. The company appears to be an enterprise-level entity with a consistent brand presence and a long operational history (copyright from 2012 to 2025). The lack of public WHOIS registrant data is typical for commercial entities using privacy protection services. No direct contact information is provided on the login page, which is common for portals requiring user authentication.

Security posture

The site employs Okta for authentication, which is a strong security practice. The presence of CSRF tokens in forms and password toggle features enhance security and usability. However, the absence of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security in the provided data is a concern. No evidence of HTTPS enforcement was explicitly found in the data, though it is likely given the nature of the service. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available on the login page, which is typical but could be improved for transparency. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for enhancement in header implementation and public security disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  2. Ensure HTTPS is enforced site-wide and clearly indicated to users.
  3. Add visible cookie consent mechanisms to comply with privacy regulations.
  4. Publish security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities and update them accordingly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack with Okta for authentication, Bootstrap for styling, and Pendo for analytics. JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Underscore.js are present, indicating a mature front-end environment. The site is mobile optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and professional design. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of analytics scripts. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Technical debt appears low, but the absence of some security headers and cookie consent mechanisms indicates areas for modernization and compliance improvement.
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.
