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

Visitors is a privacy-focused web and product analytics service positioned as a friendly alternative to Google Analytics. It offers real-time visitor tracking, revenue attribution, and user profile identification without using cookies, thereby simplifying compliance with GDPR and other privacy regulations. The service targets website and product owners who prioritize user privacy and data ownership. The business model is SaaS-based with a transparent pricing structure including a 14-day free trial without requiring credit card information. Technically, the website is built using modern JavaScript frameworks, notably React, and employs websockets for real-time data updates. The site is well-optimized for performance and mobile responsiveness, with a clean, professional design and clear navigation. SEO and accessibility considerations are adequately addressed. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and avoids cookies by default, reducing attack surface and privacy risks. However, explicit security headers and published security policies are absent, and no incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Overall, Visitors demonstrates a strong commitment to privacy and user data protection, with a professional and trustworthy online presence. Strategic improvements include enhancing security transparency, publishing incident response contacts, and adding security headers to further strengthen the security posture.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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';…
  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

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.

Breach exposure

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention visitors.now, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for visitors.now right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Visitors occupies a niche in the analytics market by focusing on privacy and GDPR compliance, differentiating itself from mainstream analytics providers like Google Analytics. Its competitive advantage lies in anonymous data collection, no cookie usage, and real-time analytics capabilities. The business model relies on subscription revenue with scalable event limits. The target customers are privacy-conscious website and product owners, including small to medium businesses. The company is independently owned and not venture-backed, indicating agility and fast evolution. The ecosystem includes social media presence on X (Twitter) but lacks extensive partnerships or subsidiaries. Growth indicators include a clear value proposition and transparent pricing.

Security posture

The security maturity of Visitors is moderate to good. HTTPS is enforced, and the avoidance of cookies reduces privacy risks. The site lacks explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options, which are recommended best practices. No published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure program is found, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. No contact channels for security issues are provided. No vulnerabilities or sensitive data exposures were detected. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be improved with better transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive security policy including incident response procedures.
  2. Add standard security headers such as CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program and provide a security contact email.
  4. Enhance transparency on data retention, deletion policies, and user data rights.
  5. Regularly audit and update the technology stack to avoid potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern React-based frontend with module preloading for performance optimization. Websockets are employed for real-time visitor tracking, indicating a sophisticated technical infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible with semantic HTML and ARIA roles. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and canonical links. No CMS or hosting provider details are explicitly detected. Performance is fast with efficient asset loading. Technical risks are minimal but could be mitigated by adding security headers and publishing more detailed technical documentation.
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.
