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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  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

  3. 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

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

Typotheque operates in the technology sector, specifically in digital typography and font design. Their business model revolves around selling fonts, offering custom font creation, and supporting global language scripts. The company targets creative professionals and organizations needing specialized fonts. The website content and blog indicate active engagement with the typography community and ongoing product development. Partnerships include related domain tptq-arabic.com for Arabic fonts. The company appears to be small-sized, founded in 1999, with consistent branding and high-quality content. Revenue streams likely include font sales and bespoke design services. The absence of detailed WHOIS data suggests privacy protection or alternative domain registration practices.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and includes multiple security headers enhancing protection against common web vulnerabilities. The use of hCaptcha on forms reduces spam and automated abuse risks. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of a published security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure page indicates room for maturity in security governance and transparency. Privacy compliance is partial, with no visible cookie consent mechanism or detailed privacy policy, which may pose compliance risks under GDPR or similar regulations. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by formalizing policies and disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add a terms of service page to clarify user and customer agreements.
  3. Implement and publish a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy to improve security transparency.
  4. Provide incident response contact information to facilitate reporting of security issues.
  5. Verify and publish domain registration details or use a WHOIS privacy service with clear justification to improve trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern React-based framework (Next.js) with server-side rendering and static generation for performance. Hosting on Vercel provides scalability and fast global delivery. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and accessibility standards. Meta tags and Open Graph data are properly configured for SEO and social sharing. The use of hCaptcha enhances form security. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or headless approach. Performance is fast with preloading of fonts and assets. Technical risks are minimal, but the absence of explicit privacy and terms pages is a compliance gap. The WHOIS data absence is a technical anomaly that should be addressed for domain legitimacy.
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.
