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

Vestbee operates as an all-in-one platform designed to connect startups, investors, accelerators, and corporates, facilitating collaboration and investment opportunities within the startup ecosystem. The website presents a professional and modern interface, leveraging technologies such as Tailwind CSS and analytics tools like HubSpot and Fathom Analytics to monitor user engagement and marketing effectiveness. However, the absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy and transparency. The website lacks visible privacy and cookie policies, which impacts its compliance posture. Security headers and SSL configuration details are not evident from the provided data, suggesting potential areas for improvement in security hardening. Overall, while the platform appears functional and targeted to a clear business audience, the lack of critical compliance and security information reduces trust and increases risk.

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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Vestbee targets the technology sector, specifically focusing on the startup ecosystem by connecting startups with investors and accelerators. Its business model revolves around providing a digital platform that facilitates networking and investment opportunities. The platform likely generates revenue through service fees, subscriptions, or partnerships, although explicit details are not available. The website's content and design indicate a small-sized enterprise with a consistent branding approach. The absence of detailed company information, such as founding year or parent company, limits deeper business intelligence insights. The use of HubSpot analytics and marketing tools suggests an active marketing strategy aimed at growth and user acquisition.

Security posture

The current security posture of the website is limited based on the available data. There is no evidence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options, and SSL/TLS configuration details are not provided. The use of third-party scripts like HubSpot and Fathom Analytics introduces potential risks if not properly managed. The lack of visible privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps, particularly with GDPR and other data protection regulations. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is found, which may impact the organization's readiness to handle security incidents. Overall, the security maturity appears basic, with significant room for improvement in policy transparency, technical controls, and compliance adherence.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to enhance compliance and user trust.
  2. Configure and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Ensure SSL/TLS is properly configured and enforced across the website.
  4. Establish and communicate an incident response plan and vulnerability disclosure policy.
  5. Enhance transparency by providing clear contact information and company registration details on the website.

Technical notes

Notes

The website utilizes modern frontend technologies including Tailwind CSS for styling and JavaScript for interactivity. Analytics are implemented via HubSpot and Fathom Analytics, indicating a focus on marketing and user behavior tracking. The site appears to be mobile-optimized with good design quality and user experience. However, there is no detected CMS or hosting provider information. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization. Accessibility features are basic, and SEO optimization is present but could be improved with more comprehensive meta tags and structured data. The absence of security headers and unclear SSL configuration represent technical risks that should be addressed to improve overall site robustness.
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.
