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

SaaS Wheel is a recently launched (2024) online platform that curates and promotes cloud-based SaaS productivity tools. It serves as a discovery and directory site for professionals and businesses seeking effective software solutions to optimize their workflows. The website features a modern, responsive design with categorized listings, featured products, and a search function to facilitate user navigation. The platform positions itself as a trusted resource for SaaS product discovery, leveraging partnerships and external recognitions to build credibility. Technically, the site employs a modern tech stack including Cloudflare DNS and CDN services, Tailwind CSS for styling, and custom JavaScript with Beam Analytics for user tracking. The site is well optimized for performance and mobile devices, with good SEO practices evident in meta tags and structured content. However, no explicit CMS or framework is identified, suggesting a custom or headless CMS solution. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with a reputable registrar and Cloudflare DNS, but lacks DNSSEC and some recommended security headers. No sensitive data exposure or vulnerabilities were detected in the HTML content. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy and terms of service present but no cookie consent mechanism or GDPR-specific indicators. Contact information and incident response policies are absent, which could impact user trust and compliance. Overall, SaaS Wheel presents a professional and functional SaaS directory platform with good technical foundations but room for improvement in privacy compliance, security policies, and contact transparency. Strategic enhancements in these areas would strengthen its market position and user trust.

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

8 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 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"

    • 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 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

SaaS Wheel operates in the technology sector as a SaaS product discovery platform targeting professionals and businesses seeking cloud productivity tools. Its business model revolves around curated listings, featured product promotions, and user submissions, likely monetized through sponsored listings or partnerships. The company is small and newly founded in 2024, with no parent or subsidiary companies identified. The platform leverages external partnerships and badges to enhance credibility and visibility. Its competitive advantage lies in curated, categorized SaaS tool discovery with a clean user experience. Growth potential depends on expanding product listings, improving privacy and security compliance, and increasing user engagement through enhanced features and marketing. The absence of direct contact information and limited privacy compliance may hinder trust and adoption. However, the use of modern technologies and external recognitions indicates a forward-looking approach. The platform could benefit from strategic partnerships with SaaS vendors and integration of user reviews or ratings to deepen market penetration.

Security posture

SaaS Wheel demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. The use of HTTPS, reputable registrar (NameCheap), and Cloudflare DNS/CDN services provide a solid foundation. The domain status clientTransferProhibited adds protection against unauthorized domain transfers. However, the lack of DNSSEC reduces DNS security. No security headers were detected in the HTML content, which could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. The absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates limited transparency and preparedness for security incidents. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were found, and forms appear minimal and secure. Privacy compliance is partial, with no cookie consent or GDPR-specific indicators, which may pose regulatory risks. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small SaaS directory but requires enhancements in DNS security, HTTP headers, privacy compliance, and incident response readiness to meet higher standards and build user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS integrity and security.
  2. Implement and display a cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance web security.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  5. Provide verified company contact information on the website to enhance trust and user support.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including Tailwind CSS for styling and custom JavaScript for interactivity and analytics (Beam Analytics). It uses Cloudflare for DNS and likely CDN services, contributing to fast loading times and good performance. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. SEO is well addressed with comprehensive meta tags and structured content. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or headless CMS approach. The technical implementation is solid with no visible errors or broken elements. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and privacy compliance mechanisms. The site’s technical maturity supports its business goals effectively but should evolve to address compliance and security best practices.
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.
