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

1 finding 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

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

Showpad operates in the technology sector, focusing on sales enablement solutions that integrate training, coaching, and content management. The company serves enterprise clients and sales organizations, leveraging a SaaS subscription model. The website's use of advanced marketing automation and analytics tools suggests a data-driven approach to customer engagement. Social media presence across major platforms supports brand visibility and customer interaction. The domain age and WHOIS data confirm a long-standing and legitimate business operation. No suspicious or privacy-protected WHOIS data is present, enhancing trust. The absence of direct contact details on the main site may indicate reliance on lead capture forms and marketing automation for customer interaction.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and domain status flags that prevent unauthorized domain transfers or deletions, indicating good baseline security. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which could improve DNS security. No explicit security headers were detected in the provided data, and there is no published security policy or incident response contact information, which are areas for improvement. The use of third-party marketing and analytics scripts introduces potential privacy and security considerations, but no vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were identified. The cookie consent mechanism is implemented, supporting GDPR compliance to some extent. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be enhanced with additional transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the main site.
  3. Add a dedicated security policy page and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Implement and verify security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and marketing tools for vulnerabilities and privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS and hosted on Amazon Web Services, leveraging a modern tech stack including Google Fonts, Marketo for forms and marketing automation, Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, and CookieYes for cookie consent management. The site demonstrates good SEO optimization with proper meta tags, Open Graph data, and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate with deferred script loading and preloading of fonts and styles. Mobile optimization is good with responsive design and viewport settings. Accessibility is basic but could be improved with more ARIA attributes and semantic HTML. The site uses multiple external domains for fonts, analytics, and marketing, all reputable and expected for a professional SaaS company.
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.
