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

Xpeer Medical education is a Spain-based company providing accredited medical education videos accessible globally through a mobile app and online platform. It holds unique accreditation by the European Union of Medical Specialists (UEMS), offering free courses in multiple languages and specialties to healthcare professionals worldwide. The platform supports continuing medical education (CME/CPD) credits and serves a community of over 100,000 users across 40 countries. The business model includes free access for individuals and tailored business solutions for organizations seeking to distribute accredited content. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with Elementor, leveraging modern analytics tools such as Google Analytics and PostHog, and implements Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise for bot protection. The site is mobile-optimized, SEO-friendly, and includes cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR. Performance is moderate with good accessibility and professional design. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS, uses multiple security headers, and avoids exposing sensitive data. However, it lacks a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information, and does not publish a vulnerability disclosure program. Overall, the security posture is strong but could be enhanced with additional transparency and formal policies. The overall risk assessment is low, with no signs of malicious activity or vulnerabilities. Strategic recommendations include publishing a security policy, establishing incident response contacts, and implementing a vulnerability disclosure program to further enhance trust and compliance.

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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
  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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

Xpeer occupies a unique market position as the only app accredited by UEMS for continuing medical education, targeting healthcare professionals globally. Its competitive advantage lies in immediate accreditation of content, multilingual offerings, and a broad specialty range. Revenue streams likely include business solutions and partnerships with healthcare organizations. The company demonstrates strong growth indicators with a large user base and extensive partnerships. Its partnership ecosystem includes recognized medical and pharmaceutical organizations, enhancing credibility and reach. Operationally, Xpeer leverages digital platforms effectively to deliver scalable education solutions.

Security posture

Xpeer demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and bot protection via Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise. Privacy compliance is evident through cookie consent and a detailed privacy policy. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the absence of a public security policy, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure program indicates areas for improvement. These gaps could impact incident handling and transparency. Overall, the security culture appears proactive but would benefit from formalized documentation and communication channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information to facilitate reporting and handling of security issues.
  3. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of vulnerabilities.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate risks from external dependencies.
  5. Enhance transparency by communicating data retention policies and security certifications to users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website infrastructure is based on WordPress CMS with Elementor page builder, ensuring ease of content management and modern design capabilities. Integration with Google Tag Manager and PostHog provides robust analytics and user behavior tracking. The use of Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise enhances security against automated abuse. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly, with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search visibility. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in loading speed. Technical risks are minimal but include reliance on multiple third-party scripts which require ongoing monitoring.
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.
