75/100

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

Wakelet Limited operates a well-established, comprehensive content curation and collaboration platform that serves a broad audience including individuals, educators, students, and businesses. The platform enables users to bookmark, organize, collaborate, and present digital content in visually engaging collections. With a freemium SaaS business model, Wakelet has positioned itself strongly in the technology and education sectors, boasting millions of users and a consistent brand presence. Technically, the website is built on WordPress hosted on WordPress.com infrastructure, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries, optimization tools like NitroPack, and analytics services such as Google Analytics and Hotjar. The site demonstrates excellent performance, mobile optimization, and accessibility compliance, including adherence to WCAG 2.0 standards and availability of a VPAT document. From a security perspective, Wakelet enforces HTTPS, employs domain transfer protection, and claims enterprise-grade data encryption and regular audits. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and explicit security policies or incident response information are not publicly available. Privacy compliance is strong with a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service, though a cookie consent mechanism is not evident. Overall, Wakelet presents a low-risk profile with a high degree of professionalism, trustworthiness, and technical maturity. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, publishing detailed security and incident response policies, implementing cookie consent mechanisms, and providing data protection officer contact details to further enhance compliance and trust.

Both readouts depend on the site's pages, which could not be loaded in this scan.

Priority findings

1 finding 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

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Wakelet is positioned as a leading content curation and collaboration platform with a freemium SaaS model targeting education and business sectors. Its competitive advantages include extensive multimedia support, team collaboration features, and integrations with popular tools. Revenue streams likely include paid individual and group plans. The company maintains a strong partnership ecosystem and social media presence. Growth indicators include a decade-long domain age and continuous platform enhancements. Operationally, Wakelet leverages WordPress.com hosting and modern web technologies to deliver a scalable and performant service.

Security posture

Wakelet demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforcement, domain transfer lock, and claimed enterprise-grade encryption. The absence of DNSSEC is a minor gap. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. Security best practices such as regular audits and customizable access controls are claimed but not explicitly documented on the site. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not publicly available, representing an area for improvement. Overall, the security posture is strong but could benefit from enhanced transparency and published policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response plan accessible to users.
  3. Implement a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply fully with GDPR cookie requirements.
  4. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Provide contact details for a Data Protection Officer or privacy contact to enhance trust.

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.
