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

Peraton is a prominent national security company specializing in delivering mission-critical technologies and IT solutions to protect the United States and its allies. The company operates primarily in the government sector, focusing on cybersecurity, cloud services, digital transformation, and engineering. Their market position is strong, supported by a comprehensive portfolio of services and a clear commitment to national security missions. The website reflects a mature digital presence with consistent branding and professional content aimed at government agencies and defense stakeholders. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using modern frameworks such as Foundation and integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools including Google Analytics and MonsterInsights. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly, with structured data enhancing search visibility. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in accessibility features. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and employs tracking opt-out mechanisms, but lacks visible security headers and a published security policy or incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Privacy compliance is basic, with a cookie policy present but no explicit privacy or terms of service pages found. Overall, the website presents a low risk profile with strong business credibility but could enhance transparency and security posture by publishing detailed privacy, security, and incident response information.

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

2 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 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

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

Peraton operates as an essential entity within the government sector, delivering critical technology solutions for national security. Their business model is B2G, focusing on contracts with federal agencies and defense organizations. The company leverages a broad partnership ecosystem including subsidiaries like Peraton Labs and Peraton Remotec. Their competitive advantage lies in their mission-critical service offerings and strong brand presence. The website content and linked domains indicate a mature organization with a strategic focus on cybersecurity, cloud, and digital transformation. Growth indicators include active recruitment efforts and a robust news and media presence. The company maintains a professional digital footprint with consistent messaging and trust signals such as awards and leadership visibility.

Security posture

The security posture of the website is solid with HTTPS enforced and no visible exposure of sensitive information. The use of Google Tag Manager and MonsterInsights includes user tracking with opt-out capabilities, reflecting some privacy awareness. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap. There is no published security policy or incident response contact information, which limits transparency and readiness perception. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file was found, which is a missed opportunity for responsible vulnerability management. Overall, the site demonstrates good baseline security but would benefit from enhanced security controls and published policies to improve trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page detailing data collection, usage, and GDPR compliance.
  2. Implement and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Create and publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  4. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet WCAG standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

SEO is enhanced through Yoast SEO plugin and structured data in JSON-LD format.

Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in load times and accessibility compliance. No critical technical debt or outdated libraries were detected in the provided HTML content.
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.
