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

MikroTikSA is a specialized network operator based in South Africa, providing high-performance wireless and wired networking solutions primarily to private and government sectors. Established in 2007, the company leverages deep technical expertise to deliver customized connectivity projects, including fibre installations, PtP and PtMP wireless links, cabling, hotspot solutions, and remote support. They also offer specialized MikroTik training in partnership with recognized training providers. The website reflects a mature business with a clear market position and trusted brand associations. Technically, the website employs a modern tech stack including jQuery, Bootstrap, and integrates a third-party helpdesk system for support. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, ensuring reliable performance and security. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly, though accessibility features are basic. No CMS is detected, indicating a custom or static site approach. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and Cloudflare DNS but lacks DNSSEC and explicit security headers, which are recommended for enhanced protection. Privacy compliance is partial; a privacy policy and terms of service are present but no cookie policy or consent mechanism is implemented. No incident response or security policy documents are published. The absence of tracking scripts suggests minimal user data collection. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy with good business credibility and technical implementation. Security posture is adequate but could be improved by implementing recommended headers, DNSSEC, and privacy enhancements. The business is legitimate with consistent WHOIS data and domain age. Strategic recommendations include enhancing privacy compliance, security hardening, and publishing incident response 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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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
  • 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

MikroTikSA operates in the telecommunications sector with a focus on high availability networking solutions for private and government clients. Their competitive advantage lies in technical expertise and customized project delivery, supported by partnerships with recognized brands and training providers. The business model centers on service delivery including installations, support, and training, generating revenue from project contracts and training sessions. The company targets organizations requiring reliable network infrastructure, emphasizing quality and expert support. Growth indicators include a long domain history and a portfolio of trusted clients. The partnership ecosystem includes training providers Synburst and WISPGate, enhancing service offerings. Operationally, the company maintains a professional web presence with client testimonials and a service level agreement, reinforcing market credibility.

Security posture

The security maturity of MikroTikSA's website is moderate. HTTPS is enforced, and Cloudflare DNS provides a reliable foundation. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Privacy compliance gaps exist due to missing cookie consent mechanisms and limited GDPR indicators. Incident response readiness is not publicly documented, and no dedicated security contact channels are provided. The use of a third-party helpdesk system for support tickets is a positive security practice, offloading ticket management to a trusted provider. Overall, the security posture is sufficient for the business scale but should be enhanced to meet higher compliance and security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and integrity.
  2. Implement standard security headers including Content Security Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a cookie policy and consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations such as GDPR.
  4. Publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Consider enhancing accessibility features and conducting regular security audits to maintain a strong security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using a combination of jQuery, Bootstrap, and FontAwesome, with Google Fonts for typography. It uses a custom or static site approach without a detectable CMS. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, providing performance and security benefits. The site loads moderate resources and is mobile optimized with responsive design. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The integration of a third-party helpdesk widget indicates a pragmatic approach to support management. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, reducing privacy concerns but limiting marketing insights. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid for a small specialized business but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security controls.
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.
