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

Sendvid is a small technology company operating a free video hosting and sharing platform that emphasizes ease of use and privacy controls without requiring user signup. The platform supports all mainstream video formats and targets a general audience seeking hassle-free video upload and sharing. The website is professionally designed with good content quality and clear navigation, optimized for mobile devices. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript libraries like Video.js, and integrates third-party services such as Google Analytics and Facebook SDK for analytics and advertising. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enforced and CSRF protections in place, but lacks DNSSEC and explicit security headers. Privacy compliance is basic with a privacy policy and terms of service present but no cookie consent mechanism or GDPR-specific indicators. Business credibility is supported by domain age and social media presence, though no direct contact information or certifications are provided.

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. 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 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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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

Sendvid positions itself as an accessible, no-signup-required video sharing platform competing in the technology sector focused on media hosting. Its business model appears to be free usage supported by advertising, as evidenced by adsmediabox.com integration. The target customers are general users seeking simple video upload and sharing solutions. The company has maintained domain registration since 2009, indicating operational stability. Social media channels on Facebook and Reddit support community engagement. The lack of detailed business contact information or certifications suggests a lean operation focused on platform functionality rather than enterprise services.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and CSRF tokens protecting forms. However, the absence of DNSSEC, security headers like Content-Security-Policy, and a published security policy or incident response contacts indicate gaps in security best practices. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of third-party analytics and advertising scripts without a cookie consent mechanism may pose privacy compliance risks under GDPR. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a consumer-facing platform but could be improved to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and provide clear incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Introduce a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations given the use of tracking scripts.
  5. Consider adding explicit business contact information and certifications to enhance business credibility and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack including Ruby on Rails backend (implied), HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript libraries such as Video.js and Font Awesome. It uses third-party CDNs for fonts and scripts, and integrates Google IMA SDK for video ads. Performance is moderate with mobile optimization and responsive design implemented. The site lacks advanced accessibility features but maintains basic usability standards. Hosting details are not explicit, but DNS is managed via godns.com with registrar Gransy, s.r.o. The site uses CSRF tokens for form security but lacks DNSSEC and some security headers. Advertising is integrated via adsmediabox.com, and analytics via Google and Facebook services.
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.
