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

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 29 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography
      • NIST SC-17: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-17: Public Key Infrastructure Certificates
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

WordPress VIP operates in the technology sector, providing enterprise WordPress hosting and content platform services. Their market positioning as a leading enterprise content platform is supported by a strong brand presence and association with Automattic, the parent company. The business model revolves around SaaS offerings targeting large organizations requiring scalable, secure, and flexible content management solutions. Revenue streams likely include subscription-based hosting and support services. The company leverages partnerships with marketing and analytics providers such as HubSpot and Google. Growth indicators include a mature website, extensive use of analytics, and a comprehensive privacy and cookie compliance framework. The partnership ecosystem includes major platforms like LinkedIn and Vimeo, enhancing content delivery and marketing capabilities.

Security posture

The security maturity of WordPress VIP's website is high. HTTPS is enforced, and Cloudflare Bot Management cookies indicate proactive bot mitigation. The cookie consent mechanism is robust and GDPR compliant, reflecting strong privacy practices. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not clearly visible and should be verified server-side. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure information are not publicly available, representing a minor compliance gap. Overall, the security culture appears mature, with good integration of third-party security and analytics tools.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  3. Verify and explicitly implement security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Provide clear incident response contact information on the website for security issues.
  5. Continue monitoring third-party scripts and cookies to ensure ongoing privacy compliance and security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform with integration of Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for interactive elements. It uses HubSpot for form management and Google Tag Manager for analytics deployment, indicating a mature marketing technology stack. Performance is optimized with CDN usage (jsdelivr.net), asynchronous script loading, and image preloading. The site is mobile-optimized with good accessibility features and SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Technical risks are minimal, primarily related to ensuring all security headers are properly configured and maintaining up-to-date third-party libraries. The infrastructure appears robust and scalable, suitable for enterprise-grade content delivery.
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.
