High risk. 4 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view, SSL/TLS and 1 other check.
Paddle is a well-established CMS platform provider founded in 2003, specializing in flexible and secure content management solutions primarily for governments, public sector organizations, hospitals, and non-profits. The company offers its CMS as both Platform-as-a-Service and Software-as-a-Service, with a strong emphasis on accessibility, security, and ease of use. Their market position is supported by a significant user base and numerous modules and integrations, reflecting a mature and scalable product offering. The website content is professionally crafted, multilingual, and includes customer testimonials and support options, enhancing trust and credibility. Technically, the website leverages Drupal CMS and integrates multiple modern analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics, Matomo, Hotjar, and Facebook Pixel, all implemented with asynchronous loading and consent mechanisms to respect user privacy. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization, accessibility, and SEO practices, although some security headers are not explicitly detected. The SSL configuration is good, ensuring secure communications. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and implements cookie consent, but lacks publicly visible security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The WHOIS data confirms a consistent and legitimate domain registration dating back to 2003, reinforcing the trustworthiness of the business. Overall, Paddle's website reflects a professional, secure, and privacy-conscious digital presence suitable for its target sectors. Strategic improvements could include publishing explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure information to further enhance security posture and compliance.
Scanned
NIS2 Art. 21(2)
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.
4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements
What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures
GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage
What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information
What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.
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.

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.
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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.
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.
