The NIS2 figure counts only evidence anyone can see from the internet. 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

2 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.

    • High

      No SPF record found

      mypixieset.com publishes no SPF record, so receiving servers cannot tell which servers may send mail as this domain.

      What to do: Publish one TXT record listing your mail providers, for example "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourprovider.com -all". A domain that sends no mail should publish "v=spf1 -all".

    • High

      No DMARC record found

      There is no DMARC record at _dmarc.mypixieset.com, so receivers have no instruction for mail that fails SPF and DKIM.

      What to do: Publish a TXT record at _dmarc.mypixieset.com, starting with "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@mypixieset.com" and moving to p=quarantine or p=reject once reports look clean.

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.
  • Accessibility: Accessibility is a separate readout from security, so it is reported but not scored. 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

Pixieset operates in the technology sector with a focus on photography professionals, providing a SaaS business model that combines multiple services into a single platform. Its competitive advantage lies in the integration of client galleries, business management, and e-commerce capabilities tailored for photographers. The platform supports growth through subscription upgrades and targets a global user base with localized language options. The company maintains an active social media presence and offers extensive support resources, reinforcing its market leadership. No direct contact information is publicly listed, indicating a preference for managed user interactions via account portals. The business shows indicators of stability and growth, with a clear focus on user experience and service quality.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, modern security headers, and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Cookie consent mechanisms and privacy policies indicate compliance with GDPR and related regulations. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy page, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests areas for improvement in transparency and readiness. The use of third-party analytics and identity services is managed responsibly, but continuous monitoring of these integrations is recommended. Overall, the security maturity is high but could benefit from enhanced communication of security practices to users and stakeholders.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security practices and controls.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information, such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  4. Enhance transparency by listing a Data Protection Officer contact if applicable.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

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.
