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

Spatial Systems Inc operates Spatial.io, a technology platform enabling creators and brands to build immersive 3D social experiences across web, mobile, and VR platforms. Founded in 2017 and based in New York, the company offers no-code tools and a Unity SDK to facilitate the creation and publishing of interactive virtual worlds. Their platform supports avatar customization, AI chatbots, and cross-platform accessibility, positioning them as a significant player in the immersive media and virtual experience market. The website demonstrates strong branding, professional design, and a broad partnership ecosystem with major brands, indicating a mature and credible business presence. Technically, the website leverages modern web frameworks such as Next.js and React, integrates with Stripe for payments, and uses Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking. The platform supports WebGL and Unity-based immersive content, optimized for performance and mobile responsiveness. However, the absence of visible security headers and privacy-related policies suggests areas for improvement in security and compliance maturity. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and modern libraries but lacks explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. WHOIS data is privacy protected or unavailable, which is common but reduces transparency. No WAF or blocking mechanisms were detected, and the site content is safe for general audiences. Overall, Spatial.io presents a robust and professional platform with strong market positioning but could enhance trust and compliance by publishing comprehensive privacy, cookie, and security policies, improving WHOIS transparency, and implementing additional security headers and incident response information.

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

4 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"

  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

Spatial.io targets creators, brands, and enterprises seeking to engage audiences through immersive 3D virtual experiences. Their business model combines no-code tools for ease of use and advanced SDKs for developers, enabling a wide range of users to build and publish interactive worlds. The platform's partnerships with high-profile brands like BMW, Walmart, and Vogue underscore its competitive advantage and market reach. Revenue likely derives from subscription plans, enterprise solutions, and possibly in-app purchases or avatar customizations. The company demonstrates growth through a large user base and extensive content library, supported by active social media and community engagement. Strategic focus on cross-platform accessibility and avatar personalization positions Spatial.io well for future expansion in the metaverse and virtual event markets.

Security posture

Spatial.io exhibits a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enforced and no visible sensitive data exposure. However, the lack of security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. The absence of published security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure channels indicates limited transparency and preparedness for security incidents. WHOIS privacy protection is justified but limits domain ownership visibility. No known vulnerabilities or malware indicators were detected. To improve, the company should implement recommended security headers, publish clear privacy and security policies, and establish formal incident response and vulnerability disclosure processes to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Implement and configure security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Establish and publicize an incident response plan and contact channels for security issues.
  4. Consider DNSSEC deployment to enhance domain security.
  5. Enhance WHOIS transparency if possible or provide verified company ownership information on the website.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack featuring Next.js and React frameworks, enabling server-side rendering and optimized performance. Integration with Stripe facilitates secure payment processing. The use of Google Analytics and Tag Manager supports data-driven marketing and user behavior analysis. The platform supports WebGL and Unity SDK for immersive 3D content, ensuring cross-platform compatibility across web, mobile, and VR/AR devices. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. Performance appears fast with preloading and prefetching of critical assets. However, the absence of a detected CMS suggests a custom or headless architecture. Technical risks include missing security headers and incomplete privacy compliance documentation, which should be addressed to reduce operational and reputational risks.
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.
