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

Typeform is a leading SaaS provider specializing in creating interactive, user-friendly forms and surveys designed to increase response rates without requiring coding skills. Their platform targets businesses and individuals seeking to collect data through quizzes, feedback, lead generation, and research tools. The company maintains a strong market position with a focus on design and user experience, supported by recognized certifications such as SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001, underscoring their commitment to security and compliance. Technically, Typeform's website leverages modern web technologies including Webflow CMS, JavaScript frameworks, Google Tag Manager, and OneTrust for cookie consent management. The site is optimized for performance, mobile responsiveness, and accessibility, providing a seamless user experience. Their use of multiple analytics and marketing tools indicates a mature digital infrastructure with moderate user tracking balanced by GDPR-compliant privacy mechanisms. From a security perspective, the website enforces HTTPS, employs robust security headers, and integrates consent management tools to comply with privacy regulations. However, the absence of a publicly available security policy or incident response contact channels suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness. The WHOIS data is unavailable, likely due to privacy protection, which slightly impacts trust but is mitigated by the company's visible certifications and professional presence. Overall, Typeform presents a secure, professional, and user-centric platform with strong privacy compliance and technical maturity. Strategic enhancements in security communication and public incident response mechanisms would further strengthen their security posture and trustworthiness.

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

4 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. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Potential Subdomain Takeover

      Subdomain staging.typeform.com points to unregistered service d1o7hancqope1k.cloudfront.net

      What to do: Remove or fix CNAME record to prevent subdomain takeover

      • WSTG-CONF-10
      • NIS2 21(2)(i)
      • IR 2024/2690 12.4: Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 12.4: Asset inventory

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

Typeform operates in the technology sector as a SaaS provider offering interactive form and survey solutions. Their business model focuses on subscription-based services targeting a broad audience including marketers, researchers, and businesses requiring data collection tools. The company benefits from a strong brand presence, consistent content quality, and recognized security certifications, which enhance customer trust. Their marketing ecosystem includes partnerships with major ad networks and analytics providers, supporting growth and customer acquisition. The lack of explicit physical addresses or direct contact details suggests a primarily digital-first operation. Typeform's competitive advantage lies in its user-friendly design and comprehensive feature set, positioning it well in the online form and survey market.

Security posture

Typeform demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and integration of GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanisms via OneTrust. The presence of SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certifications indicates adherence to industry best practices. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy page and explicit incident response contacts limits transparency and may hinder rapid communication during security events. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the website content. The use of multiple third-party scripts necessitates ongoing vigilance to prevent supply chain risks. Overall, the security maturity is high but could be improved by publishing vulnerability disclosure programs and security contact information.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and user trust.
  2. Establish and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Provide explicit security contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate supply chain vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet or exceed compliance standards and improve user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Webflow CMS with a modern JavaScript-based tech stack including libraries for localization, lazy loading, and tracking. It uses Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for marketing and analytics, alongside Optimizely for experimentation. The site is well-optimized for performance and mobile responsiveness, with proper use of meta tags and SEO best practices. Cookie consent is managed via OneTrust, ensuring GDPR compliance. Hosting appears to be via Webflow or associated CDNs, providing reliable uptime and fast content delivery. The technical implementation reflects a mature and well-maintained infrastructure suitable for a large SaaS provider.
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.
