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

5 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 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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 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

Zotabox targets the e-commerce sector with a SaaS business model offering marketing widgets and tools to online merchants. The platform's competitive advantage lies in its comprehensive toolset, ease of integration with popular e-commerce platforms, and free trial offerings. Revenue streams likely include subscription plans and premium feature upsells. The target customer segment includes small to medium-sized e-commerce businesses globally. The company maintains a partnership ecosystem with major e-commerce platforms such as Shopify, Magento, WooCommerce, and others. Growth indicators include a large user base and positive customer testimonials. Strategic observations suggest a focus on expanding integrations and enhancing user engagement features.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and use of reputable third-party analytics and chat services. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options indicates room for improvement. There is no publicly visible security policy or incident response contact information, which could be a compliance gap. Data protection practices appear basic but adequate for the business type. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not evident from the public content. Overall, the security posture is sufficient for a marketing website but could be enhanced to improve trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and compliance.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to avoid vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance privacy compliance by detailing data retention policies and user data handling practices.
  5. Consider adding a data protection officer contact or privacy liaison to strengthen GDPR and related compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using Bootstrap 5.3.3 for responsive design and multiple JavaScript libraries for UI enhancements and analytics. The tech stack includes Google Fonts, Swiper.js for sliders, AOS for animations, Glightbox for lightbox effects, and integration with Crisp Chat and Facebook Pixel for customer engagement and tracking. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices evident from meta tags and structured data. The site uses multiple external domains for fonts, analytics, and marketing scripts, which is typical for SaaS marketing sites. Technical risks include reliance on multiple third-party scripts which require ongoing maintenance to prevent security issues. Overall, the infrastructure is modern and well-implemented with opportunities for security hardening.
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.
