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

WordFly is a digital marketing platform specializing in email and SMS marketing tailored for arts and culture organizations. The company offers a suite of tools including creative email design, marketing automation, page building, subscriber management, and analytics. Positioned as a niche player, WordFly targets arts venues and cultural institutions seeking to engage their audiences effectively through digital messaging. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image with clear contact information and social media presence, supporting its credibility. Technically, the website is built on the Squarespace platform, leveraging modern web technologies such as JavaScript, Typekit fonts, and Google Fonts. It employs HTTPS with HSTS enabled, indicating a strong SSL configuration. The site is moderately optimized for performance and mobile devices, with good SEO and basic accessibility features. Analytics are implemented via Freshsales, reflecting moderate user tracking. From a security perspective, the site demonstrates good practices with HTTPS enforcement and security headers. However, it lacks explicit privacy, cookie, and security policy disclosures, as well as vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. The WHOIS data is unavailable or protected, which slightly reduces trust but is not uncommon. No critical vulnerabilities or suspicious content were detected. Overall, WordFly's website is a well-constructed, professional platform with a solid security posture but could improve transparency around privacy and security policies to enhance compliance and user trust.

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. 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 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 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

  3. 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

WordFly operates in the technology sector with a focus on digital marketing solutions for the arts and culture niche. Its business model is SaaS-based, providing subscription access to marketing tools. The company leverages partnerships such as the Museum of Modern Email to showcase its product capabilities. Revenue streams likely include subscription fees and possibly professional services. The target customers are arts organizations and cultural venues globally. The company maintains a medium-sized operation with a US-based physical presence. The website content and structure indicate a mature digital marketing approach with clear competitive advantages in niche specialization and user-friendly creative tools.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS and HSTS enabled, protecting data in transit. Security headers are present, and no sensitive data leaks were found in the HTML content. However, the absence of published security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure reduces transparency and preparedness perception. There is no evidence of GDPR compliance statements or cookie consent mechanisms, which may pose compliance risks in certain jurisdictions. The WHOIS data is not publicly available, which is a minor trust concern. Overall, the site is secure but would benefit from enhanced policy disclosures and compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Implement a cookie consent banner to comply with privacy regulations.
  3. Add a security policy page and incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  4. Create a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance with standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on Squarespace, a reliable and secure platform, using modern web technologies including JavaScript, Typekit, and Google Fonts. The site loads with moderate speed and is mobile optimized. SEO best practices are followed with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD) for organization and local business information. The technical implementation is solid with no visible errors or broken elements. Analytics are integrated via Freshsales, providing moderate user tracking capabilities. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and performance optimization further.
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.
