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

6 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 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
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 29 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography
      • NIST SC-17: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-17: Public Key Infrastructure Certificates

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

SMT Data occupies a niche in the IT analytics market, focusing on mainframe cost transparency and optimization. Their ITBI™ platform differentiates them by integrating capacity, performance, and financial data into a unified view, targeting IT, finance, and management stakeholders. The business model combines software licensing with consultancy services, including DevOps optimization, FinOps, and managed services for IBM Z. Their client portfolio and certifications indicate a trusted market position. Growth is supported by active participation in industry events and a content-rich website offering webinars, whitepapers, and case studies. Partnerships with analytics and consent management providers enhance their ecosystem. The company targets medium to large enterprises with complex IT infrastructures, emphasizing measurable cost savings and operational transparency.

Security posture

SMT Data exhibits a mature security posture with foundational controls embedded in their ITBI™ platform and website. Certifications such as ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II demonstrate commitment to security and compliance. The website enforces HTTPS, uses reCAPTCHA to mitigate automated abuse, and implements a detailed cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and some common security headers are not explicitly visible, representing areas for improvement. Incident response contact information and vulnerability disclosure policies are not publicly available, which could enhance transparency and readiness. Overall, the security culture appears strong, supporting business continuity and customer trust.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  3. Add or verify presence of security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Provide clear incident response contact channels on the website.
  5. Continue maintaining and promoting certifications to enhance trust and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with Yoast SEO plugin for search optimization and uses Google Tag Manager to manage analytics and marketing tags. It integrates multiple analytics platforms including Google Analytics and Matomo, and employs Cookie Information for GDPR-compliant consent management. The site loads scripts asynchronously to improve performance and is mobile-optimized with responsive design. Hosting details are inferred from DNS servers pointing to Dandomain, a Danish hosting provider. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, though enabling DNSSEC and enhancing security headers would reduce risk. The site demonstrates good accessibility and SEO practices, supporting a positive user experience and discoverability.
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.
