Technically, the site leverages modern web technologies including Webflow CMS, Matomo analytics, and Rive animations, hosted on Cloudflare CDN for performance and reliability. Security posture is good with HTTPS, modern TLS protocols, and key security headers, though improvements like enabling HSTS and OCSP stapling are recommended. Privacy compliance is supported by comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, though no explicit cookie consent mechanism was detected.

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.

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

WeWard's business model focuses on motivating physical activity through financial incentives and social engagement, targeting health-conscious individuals and socially responsible consumers. Their revenue likely derives from brand partnerships and possibly data-driven marketing, supported by a strong user base and media presence. The company maintains partnerships for recruitment and user engagement, and its B Corp certification enhances its market credibility. The app's multi-language support and global reach position it well in the transportation and non-profit sectors, emphasizing sustainability and community impact. Strategic growth opportunities include expanding partnerships, enhancing user engagement features, and strengthening privacy and security compliance to meet evolving regulations.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforced via TLS 1.3 and 1.2, and security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options configured to mitigate common web attacks. No known SSL/TLS vulnerabilities were detected, and DNS records include SPF and DMARC for email protection, reducing phishing risks. However, HSTS is present but not enabled, and OCSP stapling is missing, which could improve certificate validation. No security.txt or explicit incident response contacts were found, which limits transparency for vulnerability reporting. The absence of exposed sensitive data and secure cookie flags is positive. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with additional headers, HSTS enforcement, and formal vulnerability disclosure mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Enable and enforce HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload to strengthen HTTPS security.
  2. Implement OCSP stapling to improve SSL certificate revocation checking and reduce latency.
  3. Publish a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response contacts.
  4. Add additional security headers such as X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy, and Permissions-Policy.
  5. Introduce a cookie consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations and enhance user trust.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Webflow CMS, leveraging modern front-end technologies including Google Fonts, jQuery, GSAP animations, and Rive for interactive graphics. It uses Matomo for privacy-focused analytics and is hosted behind Cloudflare CDN, ensuring fast load times and global availability. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. DNS and email configurations are properly set with SPF and DMARC records. Performance is fast with minimal resource blocking. Some technical debt is noted in commented-out animation scripts and lack of OCSP stapling. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern, scalable, and well-maintained, supporting 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.
