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.

Priority findings

4 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. 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"

  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

MCANISM operates in the competitive affiliate marketing and performance marketing sector, serving a diverse client base including startups and large corporations. Its commission-based business model aligns incentives with client success, enhancing appeal. The company maintains a large publisher network and significant monthly conversions, indicating strong market penetration. Partnerships with cashback services like Nuggies and specialized campaign platforms for hotels and restaurants expand its ecosystem. The company’s focus on mobile marketing positions it well for future growth. However, the lack of public WHOIS data and domain registration transparency could be a risk factor for some clients. The company’s digital marketing and analytics infrastructure is modern and comprehensive, supporting data-driven decision-making and campaign optimization.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and integrates anti-bot measures such as Google reCAPTCHA and Cloudflare Turnstile, reducing risks from automated abuse. Cookie consent mechanisms demonstrate privacy awareness and GDPR compliance. However, the absence of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap that could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. No security policy or incident response contact information is published, limiting transparency and preparedness communication. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a notable concern, as it reduces trust and complicates verification of ownership. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by publishing security policies, improving header configurations, and clarifying domain registration details.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen web security.
  2. Publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Investigate and resolve the missing WHOIS registration data to enhance domain legitimacy and trust.
  4. Maintain and regularly update cookie consent and privacy compliance mechanisms to align with evolving regulations.
  5. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting and improve security culture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Webflow CMS platform, leveraging modern web technologies including Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and jQuery. It uses Google reCAPTCHA and Cloudflare Turnstile for bot mitigation and form security. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and demonstrates fast loading times. SEO practices are good with proper meta tags and multilingual support. Hosting appears to be via Webflow with Cloudflare protection, providing reliable performance and security. The technical implementation is modern and robust, though there is an opportunity to enhance security headers and publish more detailed security documentation.
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.
