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

Usage.pro is a software product website offering a system activity monitoring application for Apple devices including macOS, iOS, and iPadOS. The business targets Apple device users who want detailed insights into their device performance and activity. The product is distributed via official channels such as the Apple App Store and Setapp, indicating a legitimate market presence. The website is professionally designed using modern web technologies, primarily built with Framer, and includes user trust signals such as a high user rating and Product Hunt recognition. However, the website lacks visible privacy and cookie policies and does not provide direct contact information, which may impact user trust and compliance. Technically, the site uses Google Analytics for user tracking but does not show evidence of security headers or advanced security practices. Overall, the site is accessible and functional but could improve in privacy compliance and security posture.

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 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

  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

The business operates in the technology sector, focusing on software tools for Apple device users. Its business model revolves around app sales and subscriptions via app stores and Setapp. The company leverages partnerships with major platforms like Apple and Setapp for distribution and marketing. The presence of a Product Hunt badge and a strong user rating suggests positive market reception and community engagement. The target audience is niche but well-defined, consisting of Apple users interested in system monitoring. The company appears to be small-sized with no public parent or subsidiary information. The website content is consistent and professional, supporting a credible brand image.

Security posture

The website currently exhibits a basic security posture. HTTPS is presumably enabled (given app store links and modern practices), but no explicit security headers were detected in the provided data. There is no visible privacy policy or cookie consent mechanism, which is a compliance gap especially under GDPR. No contact or incident response information is provided, limiting transparency for security issues. The use of Google Analytics indicates user tracking but without clear privacy disclosures. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. To improve, the site should implement security headers, publish privacy and cookie policies, and provide clear contact channels for security incidents.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add clear contact information including support and security incident response channels.
  4. Review and disclose data collection and retention policies related to analytics and user data.
  5. Enhance website accessibility and mobile optimization to improve user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Framer, a modern web design and prototyping tool, indicating a contemporary tech stack. It integrates Google Analytics for tracking and includes scripts for Setapp banner and Product Hunt badges. The site is optimized for Apple platforms and includes responsive design elements. Performance appears moderate with optimized images and structured layout. However, no hosting provider or server details are evident from the HTML. The absence of security headers and privacy disclosures suggests technical debt in security and compliance areas. Overall, the infrastructure supports a small software product website but would benefit from enhanced security and privacy technical implementations.
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.
