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

Wire in The Wild is a small technology-focused community platform that showcases real world Laravel Livewire and TALL Stack projects. It serves as an inspiration and resource hub for developers and clients interested in Livewire applications. The site is curated by Silvan Hagen from Switzerland and relies on user submissions to grow its project collection. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies including Laravel Livewire, Tailwind CSS, Alpine.js, and Tom Select, hosted behind Cloudflare DNS services. However, the site suffers from critical security shortcomings, notably the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support, which severely impacts its security posture and user trust. Performance is slow with a high page load time, and no security headers or advanced DNS security features are configured. Privacy compliance is basic with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism. Overall, the site is functional and professionally designed but requires urgent security improvements to protect users and enhance credibility.

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

9 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 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

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

The platform occupies a niche position as a community-driven showcase for Laravel Livewire projects, targeting developers and teams interested in this technology stack. Its business model appears to be based on community contributions and potential sponsorship or advertising opportunities. The site links to various partner and related domains including educational resources and developer tools. The presence of a public analytics dashboard and creator testimonials adds trust signals. However, the lack of comprehensive contact information and formal security or incident response policies limits its business credibility. Growth potential exists through expanded partnerships and improved security and compliance measures.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is low due to the lack of HTTPS and valid SSL certificates, exposing users to potential data interception risks. No security headers or DNS security extensions are implemented, increasing vulnerability to common web attacks. The absence of cookie consent mechanisms and incomplete privacy compliance further expose the site to regulatory risks. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies are not found, indicating limited readiness for security incidents. The site does not demonstrate a strong security culture or advanced data protection practices, which could impact user trust and compliance with GDPR or similar regulations.

Recommendations

  1. Install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Implement essential security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner to comply with privacy regulations and inform users about tracking.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and vulnerability disclosure process to improve transparency and incident handling.
  5. Enhance DNS security by enabling DNSSEC, DMARC, and CAA records to protect domain integrity.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern Laravel Livewire and TALL stack infrastructure, leveraging Tailwind CSS and Alpine.js for frontend interactivity. It uses Cloudflare for DNS and nameservers but lacks HTTPS due to an invalid or missing SSL certificate. The site loads slowly with a load time exceeding 20 seconds, which may be due to resource count and server response times. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility is basic but present. The site uses Pirsch Analytics for user tracking but lacks advanced privacy controls. Overall, the technical implementation is modern but requires optimization and security hardening to improve performance and protect users.
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.
