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. 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 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. 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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

NordVPN operates in the technology sector, specifically in online privacy and VPN services. The business model revolves around subscription-based VPN services providing encryption, IP masking, and unrestricted internet access. The market position is strong as a leading VPN brand with a broad target audience. The company ecosystem includes related services such as NordPass and NordLocker, indicating a diversified portfolio. The website links to multiple partner and related domains, some of which appear suspicious and may require further investigation. The lack of visible contact information and legal disclosures on the analyzed page suggests areas for improvement in transparency and customer trust. The use of Google Analytics and cookie consent scripts indicates standard marketing and analytics practices.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and Cloudflare DNS, providing a secure transport layer and reliable DNS resolution. The domain status clientTransferProhibited protects against unauthorized domain transfers. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which could expose the domain to DNS spoofing attacks. No security headers were detected in the provided data, which are important for mitigating common web vulnerabilities. The absence of a published privacy policy, terms of service, and incident response contacts limits the site's compliance and security transparency. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file was found, reducing the ability for coordinated vulnerability reporting. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the main site.
  3. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Provide clear contact information including security incident response contacts (e.g., security@ or abuse@ emails).
  5. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses modern web technologies including JavaScript, CSS, and HTML5, with resources served from nordcdn.com and Cloudflare DNS. The presence of multiple JavaScript modules and cookie consent scripts indicates a contemporary frontend implementation. The site is mobile optimized and includes SEO meta tags and Open Graph data for social media sharing. Performance is moderate, likely benefiting from CDN usage. However, accessibility features are basic and could be enhanced. The site lacks visible CMS indicators, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting via Cloudflare provides resilience and performance benefits. Technical debt is minimal but security-related technical improvements are recommended.
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.
