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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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. 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

  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

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

Vacuumlabs holds a strong market position as a fintech engineering partner with over 10 years of experience. Their business model focuses on B2B services, delivering end-to-end fintech product development and AI integration. The company targets financial institutions and fintech innovators, leveraging partnerships such as Pipedrive for customer engagement. Their content strategy includes thought leadership via whitepapers, case studies, and a fintech academy, indicating a focus on knowledge sharing and industry leadership. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers suggests a controlled lead generation approach via contact forms. No suspicious patterns or privacy protection inconsistencies were found, supporting a credible business operation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security baseline with HTTPS and Cloudflare DNS. Use of reCAPTCHA on forms and cookie consent mechanisms indicate attention to user data protection. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy represents an area for enhancement. No security policy or incident response information is published, which could impact transparency and readiness perception. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from formalized policies and additional HTTP security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page including incident response contacts.
  2. Implement and enforce HTTP security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy).
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Consider providing direct company contact emails or phone numbers for enhanced trust and communication.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins to ensure no vulnerabilities or outdated components.

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using Elementor for page building, supported by jQuery and various Google services for analytics and fonts. Hosting leverages Cloudflare DNS for performance and security benefits. The site is optimized for fast loading and mobile responsiveness, with good SEO practices including meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Use of reCAPTCHA and cookie consent scripts indicates compliance with privacy regulations. The technical stack is mature and well-maintained, though explicit security headers are missing. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and performant web presence aligned with business goals.
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.
