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

1 finding 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

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

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

Microsoft leverages its global brand and extensive product ecosystem to maintain leadership in the productivity software market. The business model is subscription-based, with Microsoft 365 as a key revenue stream. The website supports a broad target audience including enterprises, SMBs, and individual consumers. Strategic partnerships and integrations with other Microsoft services enhance the value proposition. The site content and structure reflect a mature digital marketing and customer engagement approach. Growth indicators include continuous feature updates and integration of AI capabilities such as Microsoft 365 Copilot. The absence of direct contact information on the main site suggests reliance on centralized Microsoft support channels.

Security posture

The website employs strong security best practices including HTTPS, modern security headers, and cookie consent mechanisms. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The lack of publicly available security policy documents and incident response contacts is a minor gap. No vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file was found, which could improve transparency and trust. Overall, the security posture is robust and consistent with enterprise-grade cloud services, but could benefit from enhanced public security communications.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security frameworks and controls
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ emails
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program and security.txt file
  4. Add data protection officer contact information to enhance GDPR compliance transparency
  5. Maintain and regularly update privacy and cookie policies with clear user controls

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on Microsoft Azure infrastructure, leveraging Microsoft CDN for static assets and fonts. It uses modern JavaScript and CSS with optimized loading and accessibility features. Performance is fast with good mobile responsiveness and SEO optimization. The technical stack is mature and well-maintained, minimizing technical debt. No CMS was explicitly detected, likely a custom Microsoft platform. The site includes analytics via Azure Monitor, supporting moderate user tracking with privacy compliance. Overall, the technical implementation supports a high-quality user experience and operational reliability.
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.
