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

Vani is a visual collaboration platform designed to enable teams to brainstorm, plan, and innovate together on an infinite canvas. It is positioned as a modern and fun alternative to traditional collaboration tools, integrating video catchups, templates, and real-time interaction features. The platform is part of Zoho Corporation's ecosystem, leveraging Zoho's infrastructure and integrations with popular tools like Microsoft Teams. The website is professionally designed, mobile-optimized, and provides comprehensive resources including API documentation and partner programs. From a technical perspective, the website uses Zoho's proprietary frameworks and services, with modern web technologies such as HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. It embeds video content via Vimeo and integrates Zoho CRM for lead capture. Performance and SEO optimizations are evident, and accessibility features are implemented to a good standard. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and employs CAPTCHA on forms to prevent abuse. Cookie consent mechanisms and privacy policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, linked to Zoho's main privacy pages. However, explicit security headers are not detected, and no dedicated security or incident response pages are found, which could be improved. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional, though the lack of WHOIS data for the domain is a notable gap. The association with Zoho Corporation and consistent branding mitigate concerns, but domain registration transparency should be addressed to enhance trust further.

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. 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 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

Vani operates in the technology sector, offering SaaS-based collaboration tools targeting teams across various industries. Its competitive advantage lies in combining an infinite canvas with integrated video catchups and smart templates, differentiating it from other whiteboarding and collaboration platforms. The business model is subscription-based with free signup options and tiered pricing. The platform's integration with Zoho's suite and Microsoft Teams expands its ecosystem reach. Customer testimonials and active partner programs indicate a growing user base and strategic partnerships. The company leverages Zoho's brand reputation and infrastructure, positioning itself as a reliable and innovative collaboration solution.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and CAPTCHA protection on forms. Privacy and cookie policies are comprehensive and aligned with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap. No public security policy or incident response contacts are provided, limiting transparency in handling security incidents. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The security score is good but could be improved by publishing security documentation and enhancing HTTP header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and trust.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Provide explicit contact information for security incidents, such as a security@ or abuse@ email address.
  4. Consider enabling DNSSEC for the domain to improve DNS security and integrity.
  5. Address the lack of WHOIS data by ensuring domain registration information is publicly available and accurate to enhance domain trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack primarily using Zoho's proprietary frameworks and services. It integrates multiple Zoho cloud services including CRM, SalesIQ, and Pagesense for analytics and marketing automation. The site is well-optimized for performance and mobile responsiveness, with fast loading times and good SEO practices. The use of embedded Vimeo videos and multiple preconnects to Zoho domains indicates a well-architected infrastructure. Technical debt appears minimal, but opportunities exist to improve security headers and publish more detailed security documentation. Overall, the technical implementation supports a robust and scalable SaaS platform.
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.
