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

Yac is a technology company providing asynchronous communication tools including voice messaging, screen sharing, and asynchronous meetings designed primarily for remote teams. The company positions itself as a productivity enhancer by reducing the need for synchronous meetings, supported by reputable customers such as Spotify and HubSpot. The website is professionally designed, built on modern web technologies including Webflow CMS, Google Tag Manager, and Segment Analytics, and hosted with Cloudflare DNS services. The technical infrastructure supports good performance and mobile optimization, although accessibility features are basic. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and domain registration protections in place, but could be improved by enabling DNSSEC and adding security headers. Privacy compliance is partially addressed with a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service, but lacks a cookie consent mechanism. Overall, the website is trustworthy, professional, and safe for general audiences.

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. 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

  2. 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 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

Yac operates in the SaaS sector targeting remote teams and businesses seeking to improve communication efficiency. Its business model revolves around subscription-based software services. The company leverages social proof through customer logos and testimonials to build trust and market presence. The domain age is older than typical for a startup, suggesting possible domain acquisition. The company maintains a consistent brand identity and uses modern marketing and analytics tools. No direct contact emails or phone numbers are published, relying on contact forms instead. There is no evidence of subsidiaries or parent companies. The company’s market positioning is strong within the niche of asynchronous communication tools, with a focus on reducing meeting overhead.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms, indicating attention to basic security practices. Domain registration includes clientDeleteProhibited and clientTransferProhibited statuses, enhancing domain security. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and no security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, representing areas for improvement. There is no published security policy or incident response contact information, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the analysis. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with additional technical and policy measures.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, HSTS) to mitigate common web attacks.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  4. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  5. Consider adding direct company contact emails or phone numbers to improve user trust and support accessibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Webflow CMS, leveraging modern web fonts from Google Fonts and analytics tools such as Segment and Google Tag Manager. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, providing reliable performance and security. The site loads with moderate speed and is optimized for mobile devices. Accessibility is basic and could be improved. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured data in JSON-LD format describing the organization and social media profiles. No deprecated or vulnerable libraries were detected. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, with opportunities for enhancement in security headers and accessibility compliance.
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.
