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.

Priority findings

1 finding 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.

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

Sift operates in the technology sector focusing on AI-driven fraud prevention and identity trust. Their business model is SaaS-based targeting enterprises and large businesses requiring robust fraud detection. The company has a strong market position supported by a large customer base and recognizable brand partnerships. Their digital ecosystem integrates marketing automation (Marketo), analytics (Google Analytics, New Relic), and social media engagement, indicating a sophisticated marketing and customer acquisition strategy. The absence of direct contact emails suggests a controlled communication channel via forms, typical for enterprise SaaS providers. No suspicious or unrelated domains were found linked to the site.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS with a reputable certificate and domain registration protections that prevent unauthorized transfers or deletions. Security headers are implied though not explicitly visible in the HTML. The use of New Relic monitoring and absence of exposed sensitive data indicate good security hygiene. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents a compliance gap. DNSSEC is not enabled, which could be improved to enhance DNS security. No vulnerable or outdated libraries were detected in the scripts. Overall, the security posture is strong but could benefit from enhanced transparency and DNS security.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page including incident response and abuse contacts.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Consider adding visible company contact emails or phone numbers for security and support inquiries.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize potential vulnerabilities.

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.
