The NIS2 figure counts only evidence anyone can see from the internet. 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.

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.
  • Accessibility: Accessibility is a separate readout from security, so it is reported but not scored. 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

Vercel operates as a Platform as a Service (PaaS) provider, focusing on agentic infrastructure for web and AI applications. Their business model revolves around providing scalable cloud infrastructure combined with developer-centric tools, enabling rapid deployment and management of applications. The company targets a broad audience including individual developers, startups, and large enterprises, with strategic partnerships such as AWS enhancing their ecosystem. Their market position is strong, supported by a robust product portfolio and high-profile customers. Revenue streams likely include subscription plans, enterprise contracts, and marketplace integrations. The website's content and structured data indicate a well-established company with a clear growth trajectory and a focus on innovation in AI and cloud computing.

Security posture

Vercel's security posture is generally strong, with HTTPS enforced site-wide and advanced protections on sensitive API endpoints. The site employs challenge mechanisms for certain POST requests, indicating proactive security controls. However, the absence of publicly available security policies, incident response procedures, and vulnerability disclosure programs limits transparency. No security headers were explicitly detected in the provided data, suggesting room for improvement in header-based protections. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified in the analysis. The company should enhance its security communication by publishing detailed policies and providing clear contact channels for security incidents to improve trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to improve privacy compliance.
  2. Develop and make publicly available a detailed security policy and incident response plan.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file.
  4. Enhance security headers and document their usage to strengthen security posture.
  5. Provide clear security contact channels to facilitate incident reporting and response.

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.
