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

Zest Sunrisers, Inc. operates a technology platform focused on information enablement, providing an AI-powered tool that unifies access to documents, files, and contacts across multiple cloud services. The platform targets knowledge workers and enterprises aiming to reduce time spent searching for information and improve productivity. Recently acquired by WalkMe, Zest positions itself as a strategic enterprise solution integrating with popular tools like Google Drive, GitHub, and Salesforce. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Hotjar for analytics and user behavior tracking, but lacks some advanced security headers and cookie consent mechanisms. The domain is well-established since 2015, consistent with the company’s founding date, and shows no suspicious WHOIS patterns. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enforced but could be improved by enabling DNSSEC and adding security headers. Privacy compliance is basic, with a privacy policy present but no cookie banner or explicit GDPR compliance indicators. Overall, the website is professional, well-branded, and trustworthy, though it could enhance its security and privacy practices to align with best standards.

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

8 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

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

Zest operates in the technology sector, providing SaaS solutions for enterprise information enablement and sales productivity. Its business model revolves around offering AI-driven search and file delivery services that integrate with multiple cloud platforms. The company targets medium to large enterprises and knowledge workers who require seamless access to dispersed information. The acquisition by WalkMe suggests strategic growth and market validation. The website highlights over 50,000 users, indicating a solid user base. Partnerships and integrations with major platforms enhance its ecosystem. However, the lack of direct contact emails or phone numbers on the site may limit immediate customer engagement. The company’s branding is consistent and professional, supporting its market positioning as a reliable enterprise tool.

Security posture

The security maturity of the website is moderate. HTTPS is properly implemented, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the absence of DNSSEC reduces DNS security, and no security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. No explicit incident response or security policies are publicly available, which may indicate limited transparency in security governance. The use of multiple tracking and analytics tools without a cookie consent mechanism raises privacy compliance concerns, especially under GDPR. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. Overall, while basic security practices are in place, there is room for improvement to meet enterprise-grade security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  4. Publish explicit security and incident response policies to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Review and minimize tracking scripts to reduce privacy risks and improve user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack with HTML5, CSS3, SVG graphics, and JavaScript libraries for analytics and user experience enhancements. It integrates Google Analytics, Google Optimize, Facebook Pixel, and Hotjar for tracking and optimization. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and preloaded fonts for performance. Hosting details are not explicit, but DNS is managed via cloudns.net. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts. No CMS detected, indicating a custom or static site architecture. Accessibility features are basic, with room for improvement. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Technical risks include lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers, which should be addressed to reduce attack surface and improve 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.
