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

3 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

    • 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. 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

Perficient operates in a competitive consulting market with a focus on AI and digital innovation. Their business model revolves around delivering strategic consulting, customer experience enhancement, product innovation, platform integration, data intelligence, and AI solutions. The company targets enterprise clients seeking to modernize and scale their digital capabilities. Their content and social media presence support brand authority and client engagement. The lack of visible WHOIS data is unusual but may be due to privacy protection. No suspicious domains or partners were identified. The company demonstrates strong compliance with privacy regulations and uses extensive tracking for marketing and analytics purposes.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, multiple security headers, and a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the absence of a public security.txt or explicit incident response contact reduces transparency in vulnerability disclosure and incident handling. The site uses third-party scripts for analytics and marketing, which should be regularly audited to mitigate supply chain risks. Overall, the security maturity is good, supporting business continuity and data protection.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure.
  2. Enhance visibility of incident response contacts, such as security@ or abuse@ emails.
  3. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking pixels for security and privacy compliance.
  4. Update WHOIS registration data to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Consider publishing certifications and compliance attestations to strengthen trust signals.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Sitecore CMS and leverages a modern JavaScript stack with lazy loading and asynchronous script loading for performance optimization. It integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools including Google Tag Manager, Hotjar, ZoomInfo, LinkedIn Insight, and StackAdapt. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in load times possibly due to multiple third-party scripts. The technical infrastructure supports a scalable and secure digital experience, though continuous monitoring and optimization are recommended to maintain high standards.
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.
