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

Ulaa Browser is a privacy-first, secure, and productivity-enhancing web browser developed by Zoho Corporation, a well-established technology company founded in 2003. Positioned as an indigenous Indian browser and winner of the Indian Web Browser Development Challenge, Ulaa targets general users seeking enhanced privacy and productivity features. The browser supports multiple platforms including Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS, and integrates seamlessly with Zoho's SSO and AI-powered search systems. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with comprehensive legal documentation and privacy policies linked to Zoho's main site. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies such as HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, jQuery, and Lottie animations, ensuring a fast and responsive user experience across devices. Structured data and Open Graph metadata are properly implemented to enhance SEO and social sharing. Although no explicit CMS or hosting provider is detected, the site demonstrates good performance and mobile optimization. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS, employs domain status protections, and promotes strong privacy features within the browser product itself, such as blocking trackers and resetting browser IDs. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and no explicit security headers or incident response contacts are published on the site. The privacy policy is comprehensive and GDPR compliant, but no cookie consent mechanism is present despite some data collection disclosures. Overall, the website and product present a high level of trustworthiness and professionalism with minimal security or privacy concerns. Strategic improvements could include enabling DNSSEC, publishing a security.txt file, adding incident response contact details, and implementing cookie consent mechanisms to further enhance compliance and user trust.

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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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';…

  3. 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

  4. 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

Zoho Corporation leverages its strong brand and technology expertise to position Ulaa as a competitive privacy-focused browser in the Indian and global markets. Winning the IWBDC challenge provides a significant market differentiator and credibility. The business model centers on software product distribution with deep integration into Zoho's ecosystem, including SSO and AI-powered search, which may drive user retention and cross-product adoption. The target audience is broad, encompassing general users concerned about privacy and productivity. The company demonstrates a mature digital presence with multilingual support and detailed legal frameworks. Partnerships appear primarily internal within Zoho's domain ecosystem, with no external subsidiaries or partners explicitly linked. Growth indicators include continuous updates, security patch policies, and feature-rich browser modes catering to diverse user needs.

Security posture

The security posture of the website and associated product is strong but not without gaps. HTTPS is enforced, and domain registration protections are in place, reducing risks of domain hijacking. The browser product emphasizes privacy and security features such as tracker blocking, anonymized statistics, and auto-resetting browser IDs. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security.txt files limits DNS security and vulnerability disclosure transparency. No explicit incident response or abuse contact information is provided, which could hinder timely communication during security events. The website does not display common security headers, which could improve protection against common web attacks. Data collection is minimal and transparent, with optional anonymized stats and clear privacy policy disclosures. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced with additional best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response contacts.
  3. Add explicit incident response and abuse contact information on the website.
  4. Implement a cookie consent mechanism if cookies or tracking technologies are used.
  5. Enhance HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using standard modern web technologies including HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, and jQuery, supplemented by Lottie animations for enhanced user experience. Structured data in JSON-LD format is used effectively for SEO and rich snippets. The site supports multiple languages via hreflang tags, indicating a global reach. Performance is optimized with deferred loading of CSS and scripts. No CMS or hosting provider is explicitly identified, suggesting a custom or managed hosting environment. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design and viewport meta tags. Accessibility is basic but present. SEO practices are solid with meta descriptions, canonical links, and Open Graph tags. Technical risks are minimal, but the lack of DNSSEC and security headers could be addressed to reduce attack surface.
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.
