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

5 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 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. 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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Stackpile operates in the technology sector providing integration and analytics management services via a SaaS model. Its competitive advantage lies in simplifying the deployment of multiple third-party tools through a unified API, reducing development overhead for clients. The company maintains an active integration directory featuring popular tools like Google Analytics, Amplitude, and Intercom, indicating a broad partnership ecosystem. The business targets small to medium-sized enterprises and developers, focusing on ease of use and cost savings. The website's content and social media presence support brand awareness and customer engagement. The domain's age and registration details align with the company's stated history, reinforcing credibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is properly implemented, and domain registration is stable with clientTransferProhibited status. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and no advanced security headers (e.g., CSP, HSTS) were detected in the provided data. There is no visible security policy or incident response contact information, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present. The extensive use of third-party analytics and marketing scripts increases the attack surface, necessitating vigilant monitoring. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified. The absence of cookie consent mechanisms and explicit GDPR compliance indicators suggests room for improvement in privacy and regulatory adherence.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance domain security and prevent DNS spoofing.
  2. Implement comprehensive security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Add a dedicated security policy page and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  4. Introduce a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply with privacy regulations and improve user trust.
  5. Provide clear contact information for security incidents and data protection inquiries to enhance transparency and incident response readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built with modern JavaScript technologies and integrates multiple third-party analytics and marketing tools, including Google Analytics, Hotjar, Mixpanel, Sentry, and New Relic. It is hosted on Cloudflare, providing CDN and security benefits. The site loads quickly and is mobile-optimized with responsive design elements. However, no specific CMS or web framework was detected from the HTML content. The technical implementation is robust but could benefit from improved accessibility features and enhanced SEO metadata. The presence of multiple asynchronous scripts indicates a focus on performance optimization. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business model effectively but should address security header enhancements and privacy compliance to reduce risk.
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.
