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

Spider AF is a specialized technology company founded in 2017 that provides digital marketing security solutions focused on combating ad fraud, invalid clicks, fake leads, and website risks. The company targets digital marketers and businesses seeking to optimize ad spend and protect marketing budgets. Their platform is trusted by over 500 companies and offers an all-in-one SaaS solution with a free trial option. Technically, the website is built on Webflow and hosted on AWS infrastructure, integrating multiple modern marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Intercom, HubSpot, and Visual Website Optimizer. The site is mobile optimized and designed with good user experience and SEO practices. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS and domain registration protections but lacks DNSSEC and explicit security headers, indicating room for improvement in hardening. Privacy compliance is basic, with a cookie consent banner but no visible privacy or terms of service pages. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced privacy disclosures and security headers.

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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  2. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Unregistered MX Record

      MX record points to unregistered domain: ms64056487.msv1.invalid

      What to do: Remove or fix MX record pointing to unregistered domain

      • RFC 5321 §5.1
      • NIS2 21(2)(i)
      • IR 2024/2690 12.4: Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 12.4: Asset inventory
      • NIST CM-8: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-8: System Component Inventory

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

Spider AF operates in the technology sector, providing B2B SaaS solutions for marketing security. Their competitive advantage lies in specialized ad fraud detection and prevention, serving a niche market of digital marketers and advertisers. The business model is subscription-based with a free trial to attract customers. The company has established credibility with over 500 clients and positive Capterra ratings. Their marketing ecosystem includes partnerships with major ad networks and analytics platforms. The absence of direct contact information on the website suggests a focus on inbound digital leads rather than direct sales. The company appears to be small-sized and focused on growth within the digital marketing security niche.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with mandatory HTTPS and domain registration safeguards such as clientDeleteProhibited status. However, the lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers like Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduce the overall security robustness. The extensive use of third-party scripts and marketing tools increases the attack surface and necessitates regular security audits. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which is a gap in security transparency. The cookie consent mechanism is implemented, indicating some privacy awareness. Recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, adding security headers, publishing privacy and security policies, and conducting third-party script reviews.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement comprehensive security HTTP headers such as CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish clear privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve compliance and user trust.
  4. Establish and publicize an incident response and vulnerability disclosure process.
  5. Regularly audit and minimize third-party scripts to reduce security risks and improve performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Webflow CMS and hosted on Amazon AWS infrastructure, ensuring scalability and reliability. It integrates multiple modern marketing and analytics technologies including Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Intercom, HubSpot, PostHog, and Visual Website Optimizer for A/B testing. The site uses jQuery and Font Awesome for UI components. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and CDN usage for assets. Mobile optimization is good, but accessibility features are basic. SEO is supported with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Technical debt is low, but security enhancements and privacy disclosures are needed to align with 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.
