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

Megabyte is a Belgian technology company specializing in software solutions such as accounting and management software, ERP, CRM, cloud, and VOIP services. They are an official Sage Partner targeting accountants, SMEs, and non-profit organizations. Additionally, they provide IT consulting and infrastructure management services including network, servers, security, and telephony. The website reflects a professional business model focused on B2B services with a consistent brand presence and clear service segmentation. Technically, the website uses modern web technologies including Three.js and Vanta.js for visual effects and Adobe Typekit for fonts. The site is structured with SEO best practices in mind, including meta tags and Open Graph data. However, mobile optimization and accessibility are basic, and no CMS or hosting provider information is evident. Performance is moderate with no critical errors detected. From a security perspective, the site lacks visible security headers and no HTTPS status was confirmed from the data provided. There are no forms or data collection points to analyze for input security. Privacy and cookie policies are absent, indicating potential GDPR compliance gaps. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, limiting transparency and security readiness. Overall, the website is functional and professional but requires improvements in privacy compliance, security posture, and contact transparency to enhance trust and regulatory adherence.

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

11 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  2. 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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"

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

Megabyte occupies a niche in the Belgian technology sector as a provider of integrated software and IT infrastructure services. Their official partnership with Sage positions them strongly within accounting and SME markets. The business model is service-oriented with multiple specialized domains (applications, consulting, infrastructure) supported by dedicated subdomains. The absence of detailed company registration or VAT information on the site limits external verification. The company targets fiduciaries, SMEs, and non-profits, indicating a focused customer segment. Growth potential is supported by diversified IT offerings and consulting expertise. The partnership ecosystem includes Sage and internal domain segmentation, but no external third-party partnerships are evident. Strategic observations suggest a stable small-sized company with room to improve digital trust signals and compliance documentation.

Security posture

The current security posture of the website is basic with no explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosures found. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates non-compliance with GDPR requirements. No security headers were detected in the provided data, and HTTPS status is unknown, which is a critical gap. The site does not expose sensitive data or contain forms that could introduce input vulnerabilities, which reduces attack surface but also limits user interaction. The lack of security best practices such as CSP or HSTS headers suggests room for improvement. Incident response readiness is not demonstrated, and no security certifications or frameworks are mentioned. Overall, the security maturity is low to moderate, with recommendations to implement standard security controls and compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and prominently display a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Ensure the website is served over HTTPS with valid SSL certificates and implement security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for general inquiries and security incident reporting.
  4. Establish and publish an incident response policy and vulnerability disclosure program, including a security.txt file.
  5. Improve mobile optimization and accessibility to enhance user experience and compliance with accessibility standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built with standard HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript, leveraging Three.js and Vanta.js for interactive visual effects, and Adobe Typekit for font management. The site structure is simple and clean with good SEO metadata. No CMS or backend platform is detected, suggesting a static or custom-built site. Performance is moderate with no broken elements. Mobile responsiveness is basic but present. Accessibility features are minimal, with no ARIA roles or landmarks detected. External dependencies are limited to font and script CDNs. Hosting provider and SSL configuration details are not available from the provided data. Technical risks include lack of security headers and unknown SSL status, which could impact user trust and security compliance.
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.
