Security report for thedigitalisgroup.com
Digitalis Group · Technology · United States
Medium risk. 6 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view, Email security and 1 other check.
The Digitalis Group is a specialized organization focused on defining, developing, and financing emerging technologies that address complex health challenges. Their business model integrates applied research, non-profit technology development, and venture capital investment through their three main entities: Digitalis Research, Digitalis Commons, and Digitalis Ventures. The company targets stakeholders in health technology innovation and investment sectors, positioning itself as a niche player in this domain. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image with clear descriptions of their services and subsidiaries. Technically, the website is built on the Webflow platform, utilizing modern frontend technologies including jQuery and Webflow's own scripts. The site is well-optimized for performance and mobile devices, with good SEO practices and basic accessibility features. Hosting is provided via Webflow's CDN, ensuring fast content delivery. However, some security best practices such as explicit security headers are missing. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses safe external linking practices. There are no forms or data collection points, reducing attack surface. However, the absence of privacy and cookie policies, security.txt, and incident response contacts indicates gaps in compliance and security transparency. The WHOIS data is notably missing or unavailable, which raises concerns about domain registration legitimacy and trustworthiness. Overall, the website is professional and secure in basic terms but lacks important compliance documentation and WHOIS transparency. Strategic improvements in security headers, privacy policies, and domain registration verification are recommended to enhance trust and compliance.

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.
GDPR outside view
These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.
- High
No Privacy Policy found
GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy
What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently
- GDPR Art. 12
- GDPR Art. 13
- NIST PT-5: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 PT-5: Privacy Notice
- 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
- GDPR Art. 7
- ePrivacy Art. 5(3)
- NIST PT-4: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 PT-4: Consent
- High
Email security
SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.
- High
No SPF record found
SPF helps prevent email spoofing
What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"
- RFC 7208
- NIS2 21(2)(e)
- IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(k): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(k): Network security
- NIST SP 800-177r1
- High
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
- RFC 8996
- RFC 7568
- Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: tls_versions TLSv1.2, TLSv1.3
- NIS2 21(2)(h)

- NIST SC-8(1): NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-8(1): Cryptographic Protection
- 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.
Counted in this score

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.

Notes
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.
