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

Pixels Brand is a creative digital communication agency specializing in web development, design, and digital marketing services with a strong focus on delivering measurable results. The company targets businesses seeking to enhance their online presence through modern websites, e-commerce solutions, branding, and marketing strategies. The website is professionally designed, mobile-optimized, and provides clear navigation and comprehensive service descriptions. Multiple language versions indicate an international approach, primarily targeting German and Portuguese-speaking markets. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including Bootstrap, jQuery, and various analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Calendly for scheduling. Hosting appears to be managed by Pressidium, a reputable WordPress hosting provider. The site implements GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanisms with multi-language support, demonstrating a commitment to privacy compliance. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with good SSL configuration and employs cookie consent to manage tracking scripts. However, no explicit security headers were detected in the HTML content, and no published security or incident response policies were found. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified. The WHOIS data shows consistent domain usage, though hosting DNS suggests Portuguese infrastructure while the site targets Germany, which aligns with the company's international presence. Overall, Pixels Brand presents a trustworthy, professional digital agency with a solid technical foundation and good privacy practices. Strategic improvements in security headers and published security policies could further enhance their security posture and trustworthiness.

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. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  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 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"

  3. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

Pixels Brand operates as a small-sized digital agency in the technology sector, focusing on web development, design, and marketing services. Their business model revolves around providing customized digital solutions to businesses aiming to improve their online visibility and lead generation. The company maintains a strong portfolio with notable clients and uses modern marketing and analytics tools to optimize campaigns. Their multilingual website and international domains suggest a strategy to capture diverse markets, primarily German and Portuguese-speaking clients. The presence of social media channels and integration with Google and Facebook advertising platforms indicate active marketing efforts and a well-established digital footprint. No parent or subsidiary companies were identified, indicating an independent operation. The company demonstrates good branding consistency and content quality, supporting a high level of business credibility.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism that aligns with GDPR requirements. The use of reputable hosting (Pressidium) and security-conscious plugins like Pressidium Cookie Consent adds to the security strength. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents an area for improvement. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are published, which could limit transparency and preparedness in case of security events. No exposed sensitive information or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by implementing recommended HTTP headers and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly audit and update all third-party plugins and libraries to prevent vulnerabilities.
  4. Consider enabling HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) to enforce HTTPS usage.
  5. Enhance user trust by adding certifications or trust badges related to security and privacy compliance.

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.
