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

9 findings 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.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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 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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

The business operates in the technology sector with a small company size and a clear focus on website performance analytics. Its business model revolves around providing free and accessible performance rankings and reports, likely monetized through partnerships or premium services via SpeedVitals. The partnership with SpeedVitals strengthens its market presence and service offering. The company maintains transparent domain registration consistent with its business claims. However, the absence of explicit contact information, privacy, and cookie policies may limit trust and compliance with privacy regulations. The platform's growth potential lies in expanding its service offerings and improving compliance and transparency.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses domain status protections to prevent unauthorized transfers or deletions, indicating a baseline security posture. However, it lacks DNSSEC, security headers, and published security policies such as privacy, cookie, or vulnerability disclosure policies. Tracking scripts are present, but no cookie consent mechanism is implemented, which may pose compliance risks under GDPR. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the security posture is moderate but can be improved by implementing recommended security headers, enabling DNSSEC, and publishing comprehensive privacy and security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies and implement a cookie consent mechanism to improve GDPR compliance.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to strengthen web security.
  4. Create and publish a security.txt file and a vulnerability disclosure policy to facilitate responsible security reporting.
  5. Provide clear contact information including support or security contact emails to improve trust and incident response readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and efficient technology stack centered on SvelteKit, ensuring fast performance and good mobile optimization. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, providing reliable infrastructure and HTTPS support. The site includes external resources such as Google Fonts and analytics scripts from Microsoft Clarity and SpeedVitals. The HTML structure is well-formed with appropriate meta tags for SEO and social sharing (Open Graph and Twitter cards). However, the site lacks some accessibility features and security headers. There is no CMS detected, indicating a custom or static site approach. Overall, the technical implementation is solid with room for security and privacy enhancements.
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.
