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

2 findings 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

  2. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Unregistered MX Record

      MX record points to unregistered domain: ms64056487.msv1.invalid

      What to do: Remove or fix MX record pointing to unregistered domain

      • RFC 5321 §5.1
      • NIS2 21(2)(i)
      • IR 2024/2690 12.4: Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 12.4: Asset inventory
      • NIST CM-8: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-8: System Component Inventory

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

Spider AF operates in the technology sector with a focus on marketing security solutions. Their business model is B2B SaaS, serving digital marketing teams and advertisers. The company has established a credible market position with over 500 clients and positive Capterra ratings. Their marketing ecosystem integrates multiple third-party tools for analytics, tracking, and customer engagement. The absence of explicit contact information and privacy policies on the main site suggests areas for improvement in transparency. The domain age and registration details align with the company's founding year, supporting legitimacy. No suspicious domains or partners were identified.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses domain status locks to prevent unauthorized changes. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended security enhancement. The site uses a cookie consent banner indicating some level of privacy compliance. No explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are published, which limits transparency and preparedness perception. The use of multiple third-party scripts introduces potential risk vectors that require regular auditing. Security headers beyond HTTPS are not explicitly detected, suggesting room for improvement. Overall, the security posture is good but could be strengthened with additional policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and transparency.
  3. Add explicit security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  5. Review and audit third-party scripts regularly to mitigate potential security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Webflow CMS and hosted on Amazon AWS infrastructure, ensuring scalability and reliability. It integrates multiple marketing and analytics technologies including Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, PostHog, Intercom, and Visual Website Optimizer for A/B testing and user engagement. The site loads multiple external resources from trusted CDNs and uses modern JavaScript libraries like jQuery. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO is supported with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The technical stack is modern and appropriate for the business domain, though some security enhancements are recommended.
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.
