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

MNTN operates a sophisticated Connected TV performance marketing platform designed to drive measurable conversions, revenue, and site visits for advertisers. The company targets a broad range of clients including B2C, B2B, small businesses, and enterprises, positioning itself as a leader in outcome-based Connected TV advertising. Their platform offers comprehensive services such as audience targeting, automated optimization, premium inventory access, creative solutions, and detailed attribution and reporting capabilities. The website reflects a mature digital presence with a professional design, clear navigation, and extensive content tailored to marketers and advertisers. Technically, the website is built on WordPress and integrates a wide array of modern marketing and analytics tools including Google Tag Manager, Marketo, Crazy Egg, Facebook Pixel, TikTok Pixel, and others. The site is hosted on AWS infrastructure, employs HTTPS with strong domain locking, and features a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. Performance and mobile optimization are excellent, and SEO best practices are well implemented. From a security perspective, the site demonstrates good practices such as HTTPS enforcement, domain status locks, bot management cookies, and use of Google reCAPTCHA. However, there is no publicly available security policy or incident response information, and DNSSEC is not enabled, which could be improved. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Overall, MNTN presents a low-risk profile with a strong business credibility and technical maturity. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, publishing a formal security policy and incident response contacts, and establishing a vulnerability disclosure program to further enhance trust and security posture.

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

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 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. 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

MNTN is well-positioned in the Connected TV advertising market, leveraging a SaaS model to provide performance marketing solutions. Their competitive advantage lies in outcome-based optimization and a comprehensive platform that integrates premium inventory and advanced attribution. The company serves diverse customer segments from small businesses to large enterprises, supported by a robust partner ecosystem including QuickFrame and dedicated research subdomains. The website content and structure indicate a focus on transparency, education, and customer engagement through blogs, case studies, webinars, and white papers. The long domain history and consistent branding reinforce market trust and stability.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain locking status codes preventing unauthorized domain changes. The use of bot management and CAPTCHA services reduces automated threats. Cookie consent is implemented with granular control, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represent gaps in transparency and preparedness. DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended enhancement for DNS security. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found, indicating a secure operational environment.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to improve DNS security and prevent DNS spoofing.
  2. Publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerable versions are in use.
  5. Enhance transparency by providing data retention policies and detailed privacy compliance documentation.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS with a well-structured theme and uses a variety of JavaScript libraries and marketing integrations. Performance is optimized with asynchronous script loading and deferred JavaScript. The site is mobile responsive and accessible, with SEO optimized metadata and structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine understanding. Hosting is on AWS with DNS managed via Amazon Route 53. The technical stack supports scalability and integration with multiple marketing and analytics platforms, though continuous monitoring of third-party dependencies is advised to mitigate supply chain risks.
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.
