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. 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. 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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

Ontraport positions itself as a cost-effective alternative to complex enterprise CRM platforms like Salesforce and HubSpot, focusing on mid-sized businesses and startups. Its business model is subscription-based SaaS with a strong emphasis on marketing automation, sales pipelines, and customer support integration. The company targets diverse roles including marketing, sales, operations, developers, and support teams across various industries. The website showcases strong trust signals such as customer growth statistics, case studies, and a professional design. The integration of multiple marketing and analytics tools indicates a mature digital marketing strategy. The absence of explicit privacy and security policies suggests areas for improvement in compliance and transparency. The domain registration data supports the legitimacy and longevity of the business.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses clientTransferProhibited status on the domain to prevent unauthorized transfers, indicating good domain security practices. Multiple third-party analytics and marketing scripts are loaded asynchronously, which is standard but requires ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. No DNSSEC is enabled, which is a minor security gap. No explicit security headers were detected in the provided data, and no published security or incident response policies were found. The site lacks a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file. Forms collect business emails with required validation, but no advanced security details are visible. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by publishing security policies, enabling DNSSEC, and adding security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service prominently linked on the website.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and integrity.
  3. Implement and publish a security policy and incident response plan to enhance transparency and trust.
  4. Add standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  5. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a proprietary CMS platform (Ontraport Pages v3) and hosted on AWS infrastructure, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries and analytics tools. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good SEO practices including meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts to improve speed. The use of multiple tracking and marketing pixels indicates a sophisticated marketing stack. No major technical debt or outdated technologies were detected. Opportunities exist to improve DNS security and implement additional security headers for enhanced protection.
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.
