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

Typecast, LLC operates a subscription-based platform that curates and provides access to a large library of short-form video content from top brands and creators. The service targets marketers and social media professionals seeking inspiration for organic social media strategies. The website is professionally designed, mobile-optimized, and leverages modern web technologies such as Next.js and Vercel hosting, ensuring fast performance and a good user experience. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and modern security headers likely in place, though explicit security policies and incident response contacts are absent. Privacy compliance is partial, with privacy and terms pages present but lacking a cookie consent mechanism. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain is a notable concern, potentially indicating domain registration or privacy issues that warrant further verification. Overall, the site is functional, trustworthy, and serves a niche market effectively, but improvements in transparency and compliance would enhance credibility.

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. 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

Typecast positions itself as a niche content curation platform in the technology sector, focusing on short-form video content for marketing professionals. Its subscription model and curated content library provide competitive advantages by streamlining content discovery workflows. The company demonstrates growth potential through partnerships with notable brands and uses affiliate marketing tools like Rewardful. However, the lack of visible contact information and domain registration transparency may hinder trust-building with prospective customers. The business operates primarily online with a small company size and targets a specialized audience of marketers and content creators. Strategic partnerships and enhanced compliance measures could strengthen market position.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and likely implementation of standard security headers. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates gaps in security transparency and readiness. Privacy compliance is partial, lacking explicit cookie consent and GDPR indicators. The domain registration opacity is a risk factor that could impact trust. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but would benefit from formalized policies and improved user privacy controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a visible cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and provide clear incident response contact information to improve security transparency.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to meet compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Verify and update domain registration information to ensure legitimacy and build trust with users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React-based framework (Next.js) and hosted on Vercel, providing fast load times and good mobile optimization. It uses Google Analytics and Vercel Analytics for user tracking and performance monitoring, alongside Rewardful for affiliate marketing. The site includes well-structured meta tags and Open Graph data for SEO and social sharing. No CMS was detected, indicating a custom or headless architecture. The technical implementation is robust with no visible errors or broken elements, though accessibility could be improved. The absence of explicit security headers in the HTML requires confirmation via HTTP headers but is likely given the hosting platform. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable web presence.
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.
