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

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 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';…

  2. 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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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

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

Widgetic operates in the technology sector, targeting non-coders and publishers who want to create app marketplaces without deep technical knowledge. The business model is SaaS-based, providing a platform and tools for app creation and distribution. The company appears to be small-sized, founded around 2018, and leverages partnerships with Readymag for website hosting and platform services. Marketing efforts include tracking via Google Analytics and TikTok Pixel, and affiliate marketing through FirstPromoter. The company maintains clear privacy and terms of service documentation, supporting GDPR compliance. The lack of direct WHOIS data for the subdomain is typical for subdomains and does not detract significantly from credibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and multiple security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security in place. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency. Privacy compliance is partially addressed with a privacy policy and terms of service, but the lack of a cookie consent mechanism is a gap for GDPR compliance. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file was found, which could be considered for improving security culture and responsiveness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a cookie consent banner or mechanism to enhance GDPR compliance and user privacy transparency.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve trust and preparedness.
  3. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and maintain performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Readymag platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries and APIs including Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and YouTube iframe API. Fonts are served via Google Fonts and Typekit, with additional custom fonts hosted on CDN. The site uses HTTPS with strong security headers, indicating good SSL/TLS configuration. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization especially on mobile devices. The site structure is clear with multiple pages including privacy, terms, about, and contact sections. No CMS other than Readymag was detected. Hosting is via Readymag's CDN infrastructure. The technical stack supports a good user experience but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and privacy features.
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.
