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

TrafficHaus operates as a specialized advertising technology platform focused on providing solutions for publishers and advertisers. The company offers a proprietary ad serving platform with real-time bidding capabilities, enabling efficient buying and selling of advertising inventory across web, mobile, and tablet devices. Their market position is that of a niche player emphasizing publisher direct inventory and scalable ad reporting. Technically, the website employs a moderate technology stack including jQuery, Google Analytics, and OneSignal for push notifications, hosted likely via GoDaddy. The site is mobile optimized and presents a professional design with clear navigation. Security posture is moderate; HTTPS is enabled but lacks advanced security headers and DNSSEC, and the use of an outdated jQuery version poses potential risks. Privacy compliance is limited, with no cookie consent mechanism or explicit GDPR compliance indicators. Overall, the domain age and WHOIS data support the legitimacy of the business. Strategic improvements in security and privacy compliance would enhance trust and reduce risk.

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

7 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

TrafficHaus targets digital publishers and advertisers seeking direct inventory access and real-time bidding solutions. Their business model revolves around a self-serve platform with proprietary algorithms optimizing ad allocation based on bids and budgets. Revenue streams likely include fees from advertisers and publishers using the platform. The company maintains a small but focused presence in the ad tech sector, leveraging partnerships such as with ReviveAds. The platform's scalability and dedicated account management provide competitive advantages. Growth indicators include a long-established domain and continuous service offerings since 2007. The partnership ecosystem is limited but relevant to advertising technology. Strategic observations suggest opportunities to expand compliance and security to meet evolving industry standards.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is implemented, and domain status locks protect against unauthorized domain changes. However, the absence of DNSSEC, security headers, and published security policies indicates gaps in defense-in-depth. The use of an outdated JavaScript library (jQuery 1.7.2) may expose the site to known vulnerabilities. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is available, limiting transparency and readiness. Privacy compliance is weak, lacking cookie consent and GDPR indicators. These factors collectively suggest moderate risk exposure, particularly in regulatory compliance and client trust. Enhancing security controls and transparency would mitigate potential business impacts.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and display a cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  3. Add essential security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Update JavaScript libraries to current secure versions to reduce vulnerability exposure.
  5. Publish clear security policies and incident response procedures to improve transparency and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a traditional HTML structure with CSS and JavaScript libraries including an outdated jQuery version (1.7.2). It integrates Google Analytics for traffic analysis and OneSignal for push notifications. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design elements. Hosting and domain registration are managed via GoDaddy, with no DNSSEC enabled. Performance is moderate with no explicit indicators of advanced caching or CDN usage. SEO is basic with meta tags present but no structured data like JSON-LD or Open Graph tags detected. Accessibility features are minimal. The technical stack is functional but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security configurations to reduce technical debt and improve resilience.
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.
