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

GetVector, Inc. operates a mature SaaS platform specializing in contact-based marketing solutions that enable businesses to identify and target high-intent buyers both on and off their websites. Positioned as a modern alternative to legacy account-based marketing tools, Vector serves over 1,000 go-to-market teams with services including site de-anonymization, contact-level intent data, and hyper-targeted ad audiences. The company leverages a robust technical infrastructure including Webflow, HubSpot, and multiple analytics and marketing tools, hosted primarily on AWS. The website demonstrates excellent content quality, professional design, and good mobile optimization, though performance is somewhat slow. From a security perspective, Vector employs HTTPS with modern TLS protocols, SPF and DMARC email protections, and strong domain registration safeguards. However, there are notable gaps such as the absence of HSTS, DNSSEC, and OCSP stapling, alongside a subdomain takeover vulnerability on the staging subdomain. Privacy and compliance are well addressed with comprehensive policies and GDPR alignment. Overall, the site reflects a high level of business credibility and trustworthiness, supported by client testimonials and active content updates. Strategically, Vector should prioritize remediation of the subdomain takeover risk and enhance DNS and SSL configurations to strengthen security posture. Continued investment in performance optimization and accessibility will further improve user experience and SEO effectiveness. The company’s privacy and compliance frameworks are solid, supporting its reputation in the technology marketing sector.

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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

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

Vector is positioned as a key player in the B2B marketing technology sector, focusing on contact-level data to improve marketing precision and ROI. Its business model centers on SaaS subscriptions with a strong emphasis on integrations with popular marketing and sales platforms. The company targets mid to large GTM teams seeking to move beyond traditional ABM approaches. The presence of numerous reputable client logos and detailed testimonials indicates strong market acceptance and customer satisfaction. Vector’s ecosystem includes partnerships with HubSpot, Slack, Salesforce, and major ad networks, enhancing its value proposition. The company’s domain age and privacy-protected WHOIS registration align with a mature, privacy-conscious tech business. Growth indicators include active blog content, playbooks, and a podcast, supporting thought leadership and customer engagement.

Security posture

Vector demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. The use of HTTPS with TLS 1.3 and 1.2, SPF and DMARC policies with reject enforcement, and domain status protections are positive indicators. However, the lack of DNSSEC, HSTS, and OCSP stapling reduces the overall security robustness. The identified subdomain takeover vulnerability on staging.vector.co poses a medium risk that could be exploited to impersonate the brand or intercept traffic. No critical vulnerabilities such as exposed credentials or malware were detected. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms are comprehensive, supporting GDPR compliance. Incident response contact information is not explicitly provided, which could be improved. Overall, the security posture is adequate but requires targeted improvements to mitigate identified risks and align with best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Enable HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload to enforce HTTPS and prevent downgrade attacks.
  2. Implement DNSSEC to protect DNS integrity and prevent spoofing or cache poisoning attacks.
  3. Enable OCSP stapling on SSL certificates to improve certificate revocation checking and reduce latency.
  4. Remediate the subdomain takeover vulnerability on staging.vector.co by removing or properly configuring the dangling DNS record.
  5. Provide explicit incident response and security contact information on the website to improve transparency and readiness.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including Webflow for design and layout, HubSpot for CMS and marketing automation, and various analytics and tracking tools such as Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, LinkedIn Insight Tag, and Apollo Tracker. The site uses Splide.js for sliders and Typeform for interactive forms. Hosting and DNS are managed via AWS Route53 and Cloudfront CDN. Performance is currently slow with a load time of approximately 13 seconds and a large page size (~850 KB) with many resources (194). Mobile optimization is good, but accessibility features are basic. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Technical debt is minimal but performance optimization and security enhancements are recommended to improve user experience and resilience.
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.
