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

Plantible Foods, Inc. is a biology company specializing in sustainable, plant-based protein ingredients, primarily focusing on Rubi Protein™ derived from Lemna aquatic plants. Their business model targets food manufacturers and product developers seeking non-GMO, nutritious, and environmentally responsible protein sources. The company positions itself as an innovator in the plant-based protein market with a scalable and sustainable supply chain. Technically, the website is built on modern web technologies including Webflow CMS, jQuery, Splide.js for sliders, and integrates HubSpot for forms and analytics. The site is well-optimized for performance, mobile responsiveness, and SEO, with a professional design and clear navigation. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses secure third-party services for form handling and analytics. However, it lacks explicit security headers and does not provide a dedicated security policy or incident response contact. The absence of WHOIS domain registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy, although the website content and business information appear credible and professional. Overall, the website presents a strong digital presence with good content quality and technical implementation. The main risk lies in the missing WHOIS data and limited direct contact information, which should be addressed to enhance trust and compliance.

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.

Priority findings

3 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.

    • 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. 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
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 18 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography

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

Plantible Foods operates in the emerging sustainable food ingredient sector, focusing on plant-based proteins that address global food security and environmental challenges. Their competitive advantage lies in proprietary Rubi Protein™ technology and a unique aquafarm supply chain that uses Lemna, a fast-growing aquatic plant. The company targets B2B customers in food manufacturing, offering ingredients for baked goods, meat and dairy alternatives, and nutrition products. Press coverage from reputable outlets and active social media presence support their market credibility. The business model is innovation-driven with potential for growth in the plant-based protein market segment.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and secure third-party integrations. However, the lack of security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response information are provided, which limits transparency and preparedness. The absence of WHOIS data is a notable concern for domain legitimacy and trust. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a marketing website but could be improved with enhanced headers, explicit policies, and direct security contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to strengthen web security.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure domain legitimacy and build trust.
  4. Provide direct company contact emails and phone numbers on the website to facilitate communication and credibility.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and integrations for vulnerabilities and compliance with privacy regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages a modern tech stack with Webflow CMS, jQuery, Splide.js for interactive sliders, and HubSpot for marketing automation and analytics. It uses AWS Cloudfront CDN for hosting, ensuring fast content delivery. The site is well-structured with responsive design and accessibility considerations. Performance is optimized with lazy loading images and efficient scripts. However, the site lacks some security best practices such as security headers and explicit security policies. The technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable online presence but could benefit from enhanced security configurations.
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.
