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

Pictogrammers operates a specialized icon library website focused on Material Design Icons, offering a comprehensive collection of over 7200 unique icons. The site targets developers and designers seeking high-quality icons consistent with Google's Material Design guidelines. The business appears to be a small, technology-focused entity founded around 2020, maintaining a consistent brand and active social media presence. Technically, the website is built using modern frameworks such as Next.js and Material UI, hosted on AWS infrastructure, and optimized for performance and mobile devices. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer protection, though improvements could be made by enabling DNSSEC and adding security headers. Privacy compliance is basic, with a cookie consent banner but no visible privacy or terms policies on the analyzed page. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy, though it lacks explicit contact and security policy information.

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 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

  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

The website holds a strong market position as the largest Material Design icon library, serving a niche audience of developers and designers. Its business model revolves around providing open access to icon assets and related tools, likely supported by community contributions and possibly donations or sponsorships. The presence of active versioning and changelogs indicates ongoing maintenance and growth. Social media links to GitHub and other platforms suggest an open-source or community-driven approach. The lack of explicit business contact details and formal policies may limit enterprise adoption but suits the target audience well.

Security posture

The site demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer lock in place. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options indicates room for enhancement. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are published, which could be a gap for security-conscious users. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the site's purpose but could be improved to meet higher compliance standards.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security.
  2. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service.
  3. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and security contact information.
  5. Enhance contact information availability to improve business credibility and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern React-based stack with Next.js and Material UI, ensuring good performance and responsive design. Hosting on AWS DNS infrastructure provides reliability. The site includes SEO-friendly meta tags and Open Graph data for social sharing. No CMS detected, indicating a custom or static site generation approach. The site loads multiple JavaScript chunks and fonts efficiently. Accessibility and mobile optimization are well addressed. Technical debt appears low, but adding security headers and DNSSEC would strengthen the infrastructure.
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.
