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

Procreate.com is the official website for Procreate, a leading digital art application designed primarily for iPad users. The company behind Procreate, Savage Interactive Pty Ltd, is an established Australian software developer with a domain age dating back to 1998, indicating a mature and stable business presence. The website offers comprehensive information about the app's features, pricing, and support, targeting digital artists and creative professionals globally. The site is professionally designed with excellent content quality, clear navigation, and strong mobile optimization, reflecting a high level of digital maturity. Technically, the website leverages modern technologies such as Tailwind CSS and likely Vue.js, hosted on AWS infrastructure, ensuring fast performance and scalability. Security measures include HTTPS enforcement and domain transfer protections, although DNSSEC is not enabled. Privacy and cookie policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, supporting user trust and regulatory adherence. However, explicit security policies and incident response information are not publicly available, which could be improved. The security posture is strong with no detected vulnerabilities or suspicious activity. The absence of exposed sensitive data and secure form handling further enhance the site's security credibility. Overall, Procreate.com demonstrates a robust and professional online presence with minor areas for security enhancement. Strategically, the site supports a software sales business model focused on the creative technology sector, with a clear brand identity and consistent messaging. The lack of direct contact emails or phone numbers suggests a preference for controlled communication channels via contact forms and social media. The website's analytics and tracking practices appear moderate and privacy-conscious, aligning with best practices.

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

3 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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

Procreate holds a strong market position as a premier digital art application for iPad, catering to both professional artists and hobbyists. Its competitive advantage lies in its intuitive interface, powerful features, and dedicated platform focus. Revenue is primarily generated through app sales on the Apple App Store. The company targets creative professionals and enthusiasts worldwide, leveraging a strong brand and community presence. Partnerships and integrations are not explicitly detailed on the site, but social media engagement is active. Growth indicators include continuous product updates and a loyal user base. The business operates independently without publicly known parent or subsidiary companies.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain registration protections in place. No critical vulnerabilities or security misconfigurations were detected. Privacy policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, supporting data protection requirements. However, the absence of a public security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure mechanism limits transparency and may impact trust among security-conscious users. Enabling DNSSEC and publishing a security.txt file would enhance security posture and incident readiness. Overall, the site is secure but could improve in transparency and formal security communication.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program, including a security.txt file.
  4. Consider providing direct security contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ emails.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to maintain compliance with evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern, performant tech stack including Tailwind CSS and likely Vue.js, hosted on AWS infrastructure, ensuring scalability and fast load times. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and accessibility, with semantic HTML and ARIA considerations evident. SEO practices are good with proper meta tags and structured data. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Technical debt appears minimal, and the site is maintained with up-to-date dependencies. Opportunities exist to enhance security headers and DNS security. Overall, the technical implementation supports a high-quality user experience and reliable operation.
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.
