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. 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

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

Formspark operates in the competitive SaaS market for form backend services, leveraging integrations with popular platforms like Slack, Zapier, and others to enhance its offering. Its business model is subscription-based with a free trial, appealing to small and medium-sized businesses and developers who want to avoid managing infrastructure. The company demonstrates growth with over 20,000 customers and maintains a consistent brand and content quality. Its partnership ecosystem includes major integration platforms, though no direct partner or subsidiary domains were identified. The company emphasizes ease of use, customization, and spam protection as competitive advantages.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and integrates multiple spam protection mechanisms such as Botpoison, reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha, Turnstile, and Akismet, indicating a mature approach to security. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers like Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security suggests room for improvement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. Incident response contact is available via an abuse report page and support email. The lack of a dedicated security policy or security.txt file is a minor gap in transparency and vulnerability disclosure readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Create and publish a dedicated security policy page and consider adding a security.txt file for vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Add a cookie consent mechanism if cookies or tracking are used in the future to improve privacy compliance.
  5. Consider publishing more detailed data retention policies and transparency about analytics or tracking.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including React and Next.js, hosted on AWS infrastructure with Amazon DNS services. The site is fast, mobile-optimized, and accessible with good SEO practices. No CMS was detected, indicating a custom or framework-based build. The site uses FontAwesome for icons and integrates with external services for form submission and analytics. There is no evidence of technical debt or outdated libraries. The technical stack supports scalability and good user experience, though security header implementation could be enhanced.
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.
