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

TimeTac GmbH operates a comprehensive online time tracking software platform targeting businesses of all sizes, including SMEs and enterprises across multiple industries. The company offers modular SaaS solutions including employee time tracking, project time tracking, leave management, and integrations via API. Positioned as a market leader especially in German-speaking countries, TimeTac emphasizes GDPR compliance, data protection, and customer service excellence. The website reflects a mature digital presence with professional design, clear navigation, and multilingual support. Technically, the site uses WordPress CMS with Bootstrap and jQuery, and integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Hotjar, and Cookiebot for consent management. However, the website currently suffers from a critical security issue: the SSL certificate is invalid or missing, and no TLS protocols are enabled, exposing users to risks and undermining trust. Security headers are absent, and performance is slow due to high load times and large page size. Privacy compliance is strong with clear policies and consent mechanisms. Business credibility is high, supported by certifications, partner logos, and customer testimonials.

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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

  2. 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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 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';…

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

TimeTac's market positioning as a leading time tracking software provider is supported by a modular product suite adaptable to various industries and company sizes. The business model is subscription-based SaaS, with a focus on compliance and integration capabilities. The company targets a global audience with localized content and multilingual support. Revenue streams likely include subscriptions, onboarding services, and enterprise solutions. The partnership ecosystem includes job platforms and integration partners. Growth indicators include over 3,000 customers and 100,000 daily users. Strategic observations highlight the company's emphasis on security and data protection as competitive advantages, though technical security gaps need addressing.

Security posture

The current security posture is weak due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and disabled TLS protocols, which are critical for secure communications. Lack of security headers and missing HSTS further degrade security. The presence of a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism and GDPR-compliant privacy policy are positive indicators. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is found, which could be improved. The use of reputable third-party services for analytics and marketing is managed with user consent. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but requires urgent improvements in SSL/TLS configuration to protect user data and maintain trust.

Recommendations

  1. Immediately install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS and secure user connections.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3) and disable insecure versions to enhance encryption strength.
  3. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS) with preload and includeSubDomains.
  4. Establish and publish an incident response policy and vulnerability disclosure program to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Optimize website performance by reducing page size and load time to improve user experience and SEO.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using Bootstrap and jQuery, with additional scripts for analytics (Google Analytics, Hotjar), marketing (LeadRebel, Personyze), and consent management (Cookiebot). The hosting provider is likely DigitalOcean based on IP addresses. The site is mobile optimized and accessible with good SEO practices including meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). However, the SSL/TLS configuration is critically flawed with no valid certificate and no enabled TLS protocols, which is a major technical risk. Performance is slow with a load time of over 21 seconds and a large page size (~600KB). The site uses multiple external domains for resources and tracking, all properly consented. Technical debt includes outdated or missing security configurations and potential for optimization in resource loading.
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.
