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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Google Ads

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  2. 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

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

Webnode AG's business model is a freemium SaaS platform with premium upgrades, targeting a broad audience from individuals to small enterprises. Its competitive advantage lies in ease of use, AI integration, and multi-language support. Revenue streams include premium subscriptions, domain sales, and e-commerce services. The company maintains a strong partnership ecosystem, including affiliate programs and whistleblowing portals, enhancing trust and compliance. Growth indicators include extensive user base and continuous feature expansion. Strategic observations suggest focusing on enhancing transparency around security and incident response to further strengthen market trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, use of Google reCAPTCHA v2 and v3, and cookie consent banners aligned with GDPR. Security headers are partially observed, and nonce usage in scripts indicates protection against XSS. However, no explicit security policy or incident response contact is published, which is a compliance gap. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The site uses modern tracking but provides user consent options, balancing analytics needs with privacy. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be improved by publishing detailed security and incident response information.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security practices and compliance.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email).
  3. Ensure all recommended security headers (HSTS, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options) are explicitly set and documented.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools for vulnerabilities and privacy compliance.
  5. Enhance WHOIS transparency or provide official domain registration information on the website.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern JavaScript framework (Angular) with extensive use of asynchronous scripts and CDNs for performance optimization. It integrates Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and reCAPTCHA services for analytics and security. Hosting is via Amazon Cloudfront CDN, ensuring fast global delivery. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible with good SEO metadata and Open Graph tags. Technical risks are minimal, but reliance on multiple third-party scripts requires ongoing security monitoring. The absence of explicit security headers in the HTML response should be addressed to reduce risk. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust and supports a high-quality user experience.
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.
