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

6 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

  3. 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 DMARC record found

      DMARC provides email authentication and reporting

      What to do: Add DMARC record: "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@yourdomain.com"

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

PageRangers GmbH operates in the technology sector, focusing on SEO and online marketing software. Their competitive advantage lies in offering a modular SEO Suite combined with content optimization tools, supported by direct customer engagement via hotline and webinars. The business targets professional users and companies aiming to improve search engine rankings and website visibility. Revenue streams likely include subscription fees for software access. The company maintains a strong partnership ecosystem through social media and content marketing. Growth indicators include high customer satisfaction ratings and active educational offerings. Strategic observations suggest a focus on customer support and continuous product enhancement to maintain market relevance.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS and no visible exposure of sensitive data. Multiple analytics and tracking scripts are used responsibly with cookie consent mechanisms in place. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents a gap in defense-in-depth strategies. No published security policies or incident response contacts were found, which could hinder rapid response to security incidents. GDPR compliance is indicated through privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the security culture appears adequate but would benefit from formalized policies and enhanced header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
  5. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to reflect evolving regulations and data retention practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a stable and widely used WordPress platform with Elementor page builder, ensuring ease of content management and customization. The integration of multiple analytics platforms provides comprehensive user behavior insights but increases complexity and potential privacy concerns. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous script loading and lazy loading techniques employed. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly with proper meta tags and structured data. Technical risks include reliance on multiple third-party scripts and the lack of some security headers. Opportunities exist to modernize security configurations and improve accessibility compliance to reduce technical debt and enhance operational resilience.
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.
