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

NuxtDir is a specialized online directory platform focused on showcasing and promoting AI websites and products globally. It aims to help AI product developers gain visibility and user traction by providing listing, real-time ranking, and newsletter subscription services. The platform targets AI enthusiasts, developers, and users seeking the latest AI tools. Technically, NuxtDir is built on a modern stack using Nuxt.js and Tailwind CSS, with integration of Plausible Analytics for privacy-friendly tracking and Stripe for payment processing. The website demonstrates good design quality, mobile responsiveness, and SEO optimization, although accessibility features are basic. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS and modern frameworks but lacks advanced security headers and explicit security policies. WHOIS data shows inconsistencies, including a future domain creation date and registrant being the registrar company, which slightly impacts trustworthiness. Overall, NuxtDir presents a professional and functional platform with room for improvement in privacy compliance and security transparency.

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

8 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

NuxtDir occupies a niche market as an AI product directory, leveraging the growing interest in AI tools like ChatGPT, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion. Its business model revolves around product submissions, real-time ranking, and newsletter marketing, potentially monetized via Stripe payments. The platform's partnerships, such as with NuxtPro, and presence on GitHub and social media, indicate an engaged developer community. The lack of explicit company contact information and physical address suggests a small or startup operation. Growth potential exists given the AI market expansion, but trust and compliance enhancements could improve market positioning.

Security posture

The website maintains a moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and no visible sensitive data exposure. However, it lacks critical security headers like Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security, which are recommended best practices. No published security policy or incident response contacts reduce transparency and preparedness perception. The absence of cookie consent mechanisms and GDPR compliance indicators is a compliance gap. No vulnerabilities or malicious content were detected in the analysis. Enhancing security headers, publishing policies, and implementing consent mechanisms would strengthen the security posture.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and trust.
  2. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Add a clear cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with privacy regulations.
  4. Publish a detailed security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  5. Improve accessibility features to meet higher standards and enhance user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

NuxtDir uses a modern and maintainable technology stack centered on Nuxt.js and Tailwind CSS, ensuring responsive design and good SEO. The integration of Plausible Analytics reflects a privacy-conscious approach to user tracking. Payment processing is handled via Stripe with manual client load, indicating readiness for monetization. Hosting details are not explicit but domain registration is via DNSPod, Inc. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected. The site lacks a CMS, suggesting a custom or static site generation approach. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in accessibility and security headers are recommended to reduce risks and improve 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.
