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

Usercentrics GmbH is a medium-sized technology company founded in 2013, specializing in providing advanced data privacy and regulatory compliance solutions through its Consent Management Platform (CMP). Positioned as a leading provider in the data privacy compliance market, Usercentrics targets businesses that require GDPR and other privacy regulation adherence, offering services that enable user consent management and secure monetization. The company maintains a strong market presence with certifications such as ISO 27001 and CMP certification badges, reinforcing its credibility and trustworthiness. Technically, the website is built on WordPress CMS with modern JavaScript modules and Google Tag Manager integration, ensuring a fast, mobile-optimized, and accessible user experience. The infrastructure is hosted with reputable providers, and the site employs strong security headers and HTTPS encryption, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. From a security perspective, Usercentrics demonstrates good practices including consent-based data collection, ads data redaction, and comprehensive privacy policies. However, there is room for improvement by enabling DNSSEC, publishing a security.txt file, and providing explicit incident response contacts. No critical vulnerabilities or suspicious activities were detected. Overall, Usercentrics presents a low-risk profile with a strong compliance posture and professional online presence. Strategic recommendations include enhancing DNS security, formalizing vulnerability disclosure, and improving incident response transparency to further strengthen trust and security culture.

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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  2. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048
  3. DNS health

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

    • High

      Domain Expires Soon

      Domain expires in 22 days

      What to do: Renew domain registration before expiration

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

Usercentrics operates in the technology sector with a focus on data privacy compliance, serving primarily B2B clients who need to meet GDPR and other regulatory requirements. Its business model revolves around SaaS offerings for consent management, monetization, and privacy solutions. The company benefits from a strong competitive advantage through certifications and a comprehensive platform. Revenue streams likely include subscription fees and enterprise licensing. The target customer segments are medium to large enterprises across various industries requiring privacy compliance. The company shows growth indicators through multilingual site presence and active social media engagement. Partnerships with platforms like Facebook enhance its ecosystem. The company maintains consistent branding and professional content, supporting its market position.

Security posture

Usercentrics exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced, multiple security headers, and consent-driven data collection mechanisms. The presence of ISO 27001 certification indicates adherence to international security standards. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the absence of a published security.txt and explicit incident response contacts suggests areas for improvement in vulnerability disclosure and incident management. The use of Google Tag Manager with consent controls and ads data redaction reflects a privacy-conscious approach. Overall, the security culture appears strong but could benefit from enhanced transparency and formalized incident response processes.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to improve domain name system security and prevent DNS spoofing.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve transparency.
  3. Provide explicit incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance user trust by documenting data retention policies and expanding privacy compliance disclosures.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages a modern technology stack including WordPress CMS, JavaScript modules, and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. The site is well-optimized for performance and mobile responsiveness, using modern CSS techniques like Grid and Flexbox. Hosting and DNS are managed by reputable providers, though DNSSEC is not enabled. The site includes comprehensive meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO and social media integration. Accessibility features are present but could be further enhanced. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable online presence with minor opportunities for security and performance improvements.
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.
