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

5 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

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  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

  4. 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

Sanity operates in the technology sector, targeting developers, content editors, product owners, and business leaders with a SaaS model focused on content management and AI integration. Their market position is strong, supported by notable customer testimonials and industry recognition. The business model revolves around providing scalable content infrastructure and tools, including CMS, media management, serverless compute, and AI agent actions. The company maintains a robust partnership ecosystem and community engagement through social media and dedicated community links. Growth indicators include active content updates, extensive documentation, and a variety of templates and integrations. The lack of direct contact emails or phone numbers suggests a focus on digital engagement channels and sales via forms.

Security posture

Sanity's security posture is robust, with enforced HTTPS, multiple security headers, and no exposed sensitive data detected in the website content. The presence of a dedicated security and compliance page and a transparency statement indicates a mature security culture. However, no explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies were found, representing an area for improvement. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. The use of modern frameworks and hosting providers with good security practices further strengthens their security stance. No critical vulnerabilities or suspicious patterns were identified.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to enhance transparency and encourage responsible reporting.
  2. Provide explicit incident response contact information to improve readiness and trust.
  3. Continue regular security audits and dependency updates to mitigate emerging risks.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to achieve excellent compliance and inclusivity.
  5. Expand business contact information to include verified company emails or phone numbers for improved credibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack including React, Next.js, and TypeScript, hosted on Vercel, which supports fast loading times and excellent mobile responsiveness. The site uses Sanity Studio as its CMS, integrating serverless functions and AI capabilities for content operations. SEO and accessibility are well implemented with proper meta tags, Open Graph data, and ARIA attributes. The site employs multiple tracking and analytics tools such as Fathom Analytics and Google Tag Manager, balanced with privacy compliance via Osano CMP. Technical risks are minimal, with no detected outdated or vulnerable libraries. Opportunities exist to further modernize accessibility and incident response mechanisms 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.
