[Why MSPs choose Guardian360](https://guardian360.net/for-msps/)[Become a partner](https://guardian360.net/become-a-partner/) - No channel conflict, ever, we sell only through you - Multi-tenant dashboards with partner-branded reporting - Move customers from break-fix to security advisory - One platform replacing four or five point tools What we do differently ## Security that makes business sense ### We champion compliance Dozens of norms woven into the platform, from ISO 27001, GDPR and NIS2 to DORA and OWASP. Not just to pass an audit, but to put the right policies in place and do business with confidence. ### Daily insight that hardens the network We don’t stop at the technical view. Findings are prioritised against real business risk, so things get fixed in the order that makes business sense. ### Proactive, not just preventive Honeypots watch for suspicious activity inside the network and alert early, so a problem is contained the moment something goes wrong. European by design. Agentless where it counts, and your data stays in the EU, on our own Dutch servers.

[Start free trial](https://guardian360.net/free-trial/)How it works Recommendations run every day, automatically. The proof that flows along the chain, a partner showing its own compliance, a client sending a questionnaire, a supplier sending proof back, happens periodically, whenever you assess a supplier or a customer assesses you.

Run daily recommendations and periodic questionnaires across all your clients from one multi-tenant platform, and turn continuous compliance into recurring, advisory revenue. Your clients initiate and own each assessment; you make it manageable, help them send questionnaires to their suppliers and advise on what the answers mean, strengthening your position as their trusted advisor. [Become a partner](https://guardian360.net/become-a-partner/) NIS2 reaches further than you think ## Even if NIS2 does not apply to you directly, it reaches you through the supply chain Organisations in the supply chain of a NIS2 entity increasingly have to demonstrate their security and compliance. Guardian360 helps you show it, continuously, so a supplier questionnaire or audit becomes something you can answer with evidence, not guesswork. Honest about what we do ## We don’t certify your compliance. We show where it breaks. A certificate describes one moment in time; your environment changes every day. Instead of a point-in-time stamp, we give you an always-current view of where your technical controls are and are not meeting the frameworks that apply, so you can act before an auditor or an attacker finds the gap. And where a control cannot be read from a scan, the questionnaires capture it as attested evidence, so you can show your own compliance and ask your suppliers to show theirs. ## See where you stand against your frameworks Start a free trial, or talk to a partner.

Lighthouse gives you standard questionnaires to prove your own compliance and to assess the suppliers you depend on, with evidence, an audit trail and a live view of where everyone stands. Get started with questionnaires[See compliance recommendations](https://guardian360.net/compliance/recommendations/) ## Four standard questionnaires, ready to send Two norms today, each with two variants, so the questionnaire matches the situation. New norms bring the questionnaires that fit them, and new ones are straightforward to add. NIS2 / CbwEssential entity ### Suppliers of an essential entity The full organisational questionnaire: governance, incident response, business continuity, supply chain, access, cryptography and MFA, mapped to the ten duty-of-care measures. NIS2 / CbwImportant entity ### Suppliers of an important entity A lighter, proportionate subset of the same set, for suppliers whose client is an important rather than an essential entity. CRADefault product ### A default product Product-level questions on secure-by-design, vulnerability handling, SBOM, the support period and Article 14 reporting, for products a manufacturer may self-assess. CRAImportant / critical ### Important or critical products The fuller product questionnaire for Annex III and IV products, which may also require third-party conformity assessment by a notified body. Which variant fits depends on your role in the chain and, for the CRA, the product’s classification. Lighthouse defaults to the lighter variant and lets you pick the fuller one when it applies. ## One engine, three ways to use it ### Get your own compliance in order Use a questionnaire as a self-assessment, alongside your daily recommendations, to see where you stand and close the gaps before anyone asks. ### Assess your supply chain Register the suppliers you depend on, send each the right questionnaire, and review their evidence. A live dashboard shows where the whole chain stands, and re-assessment is one click at the next cycle. ### Answer once, reuse the proof Asked by a customer to prove your compliance? Answer with evidence, keep a timestamped record, and reuse that attested proof the next time someone asks. ## Where a partner comes in The organisation stays responsible: it initiates and owns each assessment. As a partner you help set it up, send questionnaires to their suppliers on their behalf, and advise on how to weigh the answers, a recurring advisory service that strengthens your role as their trusted advisor, across all your clients. ## How it works 1 ### Register Add the suppliers you depend on, one by one or by uploading a list. 2 ### Send Each supplier gets a secure link to the right questionnaire, in your name, with a clear deadline. 3 ### Answer with evidence Answers are more than yes or no: Yes, No, Unclear or In progress, each with evidence or an explanation and an expected date. 4 ### Review & monitor Every answer is timestamped with an audit trail, reported per supplier and across the chain, and easy to repeat next cycle. ## A readiness tool, not a certificate Guardian360 is not a legal adviser, an auditor, a supervisory authority, a certification body or a notified body. The questionnaires help you ask the right questions, collect evidence and show where you and your suppliers stand. They do not replace a formal audit, certification or conformity assessment. Get started ## Get started with compliance questionnaires Tell us how you want to use the questionnaires, whether that is proving your own compliance, assessing your suppliers, or both.

We show, continuously, where your technical controls are and aren’t working by connecting what we detect to the frameworks you answer to, and where a scan can’t reach, the questionnaires capture the rest as attested evidence. 1 ### Detect the issue Continuous scanning surfaces vulnerabilities, misconfigurations and exposure across your network, web applications and Microsoft 365. 2 ### Map to a technical control Each issue is mapped to the technical control it breaks: input validation, software misconfiguration, data exposure, session management and more. 3 ### Show as a framework recommendation Controls roll up to the requirements of ISO 27001, NIS2, BIO, DORA and 25+ more, so you see per framework what is not met, with evidence collected as you go. 4 ### Prove what a scan can’t Standard NIS2/Cbw and CRA questionnaires capture the organisational and product controls a scan can’t see, as attested evidence, so you can prove your own compliance and assess your suppliers. Built for two altitudes ## Business risk for the boardroom, technical context for the engineers Every finding can be read at two levels, from one set of data.

[Start free trial](https://guardian360.net/free-trial/)[All capabilities](https://guardian360.net/platform/) How the alert works ## What Hacker Alerts gives you - A virtual appliance is placed in your network that no one should ever connect to - When an intruder probes the network during reconnaissance, the appliance is touched and raises an immediate alert - It looks like the systems an attacker expects to find, emulating common services such as FTP, SSH, RDP, SMB and databases, so their reconnaissance touches it - Detection drops from months to the moment an attacker is still looking around, so a data leak can be prevented or caught early How it works ## Continuous, in one place Most organisations only discover a breach months or years later, by which time data is already gone. A Hacker Alert appliance changes that: it stays silent until someone touches it, and the moment an intruder starts looking around your network, you know. ## See it on your own environment Start a free trial, or talk to a partner.

If you have noticed traffic from Guardian360 reaching your servers, this page explains what it is, why it is happening, and what you can do about it. ## What is this traffic? Guardian360 runs multiple scanners that continuously look in and around networks and web applications for weak spots and vulnerabilities. The scanners run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The traffic you are seeing is almost certainly an authorised scan, commissioned by the organisation that owns the systems being scanned, or by the IT partner that manages them on their behalf. The scans are designed to be light and should have no impact on your server. ## Our scanner IP address You can recognise, and if you wish whitelist, our scanner by this single source address: - `93.92.98.84`, central scanning platform (single IP) All Guardian360 scanning now comes from this one address, `93.92.98.84`. If you whitelisted older ranges in the past, they are no longer in use and can be removed. ## I would like to adjust or stop the scans If the scanning causes any inconvenience, we are happy to help. You can ask us to adjust the frequency or speed of the scanners, or to exclude your systems from scanning altogether. Email [abuse@guardian360.net](mailto:abuse@guardian360.net) and let us know which IP addresses or domains it concerns. Note that scans are usually requested by the owner of the systems; where needed we will check with them before making changes. ## Other questions For anything else, reach us at [+31 (0)88 225 15 00](tel:+31882251500) or [info@guardian360.net](mailto:info@guardian360.net). ## Curious what we would find on your own environment?

URL: https://guardian360.net/reports/dach-msp-dmarc-benchmark/ DACH MSP Email Security Benchmark · July 2026 # How protected are DACH MSPs against email spoofing? Together with DMARC Advisor we scanned the public DMARC configuration of 1,311 Managed Service Providers across Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Applying a strict test in which only a policy of p=reject counts as protected, nearly three quarters fall short. Because MSPs run email and IT for thousands of downstream customers, an unprotected provider domain is a credible attack path into its entire client base. 74.5%of DACH MSPs are not protected against spoofing 25.5%enforce DMARC with p=reject 1,311MSPs scanned across DE, AT and CH 42.0%have no DMARC reporting (RUA) configured The single largest group, 30.4% of providers, sits on p=quarantine, a policy that routes spoofed mail to the spam folder rather than blocking it, and does not count as protected. ## Download the full benchmark The complete report with the country breakdown, a Nordrhein-Westfalen spotlight, protection by company size and market segment, the specialist paradox, and RUA reporting visibility. [Download report (PDF)](https://guardian360.net/reports/guardian360-dach-msp-dmarc-benchmark-2026-en.pdf) No registration required. The report is free to download. ## Key findings - Only 1 in 4 is protected. 334 of 1,311 MSPs enforce p=reject; the largest group (30.4%) sits on p=quarantine, which does not stop spoofing. - Nearly 1 in 5 has no DMARC record at all (19.6%), leaving the domain fully open to impersonation. - The gap is structural, not national: protection sits at 27.7% in Switzerland, 25.2% in Germany and 22.4% in Austria. - The specialist paradox: MSPs that sell cyber or email security (26.4% protected) barely beat the average and fail to protect their own domain in almost three out of four cases. - Reporting is a blind spot: 42.0% have no DMARC aggregate reporting (RUA), so they have zero visibility into who sends mail in their name. ## About this benchmark The data analysis was performed by [DMARC Advisor](https://dmarcadvisor.com/) and the report was produced by Guardian360, based on a non-intrusive external scan of public DNS and DMARC records for 1,311 DACH MSPs, collected on 8 July 2026. It was prepared for the Cross-border Cybersecurity Networking Event for MSPs and IT system houses (TopGolf Oberhausen, 2 September 2026), organised by the Netherlands government and InnovationQuarter, with Passguard, SecuMailer, SecureMe2, DMARC Advisor and Guardian360. ## Need help reaching p=reject safely?

Controls are documented once and then rarely re-tested, until accountability quietly disappears in the annual audit cycle. - NIS2 maps to technical evidence more readily than the GDPR. Offer technical proof confidently for NIS2; for the GDPR it stays a complementary building block, and a finding is never a violation on its own. - Ownership beats enforcement, but only with a name and a deadline. “IT is responsible” does not hold up with a regulator; every control needs a named, time-stamped owner and a path to senior management. - This is the MSP opportunity. SMEs cite a lack of specialised expertise (62%) and internal capacity (39%); MSPs close that gap only if they can show, not just claim, that controls work. ## About this study Guardian360 held around 100 open, qualitative conversations with German data protection officers, information security officers and auditors between June and July 2026, validating an approach that links technical security findings to GDPR, NIS2 and ISO 27001 obligations. This is not a representative benchmark: the percentages reflect the responses received and should be read as a qualitative tendency, not as statistically robust figures. ## Meet us at TopGolf Oberhausen This report was prepared for the Cross-border Cybersecurity Networking Event for MSPs and IT system houses (TopGolf Oberhausen, 2 September 2026), organised by the Netherlands government and InnovationQuarter with Passguard, SecuMailer, SecureMe2, DMARC Advisor and Guardian360.

URL: https://guardian360.net/reports/quickscan-benchmark/ Quickscan Benchmark · August 2026 # Web security benchmark: how do public websites score? We ran the Guardian360 Quickscan against 12,914 public domains across the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France and beyond. Each domain gets a score from 0 to 100 based on its security headers, Content Security Policy, common misconfigurations, SPF and SSL/TLS setup. The average is 68.6: a reasonable baseline, but with the same high-value gaps turning up almost everywhere. 12,914public domains scanned 68.6average score out of 100 73.2%have no Content Security Policy 75.6%have an SSL/TLS vulnerability The biggest gaps are also the cheapest to close: security headers, a Content Security Policy and TLS hardening give the most security for the least effort. ## Download the full benchmark The complete report: the overall score distribution, a country comparison (NL, BE, DE, FR), a full breakdown per theme, and concrete recommendations for MSPs, partners and organisations. [Download report (PDF)](https://guardian360.net/reports/guardian360-quickscan-benchmark-2026-08-en.pdf) No registration required. The report is free to download. ## Key findings - Missing security headers are the rule, not the exception: around 60% of domains have no X-Frame-Options header and about half lack a correct HSTS setting. - A Content Security Policy is missing on 73.2% of domains, the single most common shortcoming across every country. - Three quarters of domains (75.6%) have at least one SSL/TLS vulnerability, such as outdated protocols or weak ciphers. - The basics are largely in order: serious misconfigurations like an exposed PHPinfo page (1.6%) or an active HTTP TRACE method (0.9%) are rare. - Clear country differences: Belgium leads with 72.7, the Netherlands (68.9) and Germany (68.4) track the average, and France trails at 64.3. ## About this benchmark The Quickscan is an automated, non-intrusive scan of the publicly accessible side of a website. This benchmark aggregates 12,914 successfully completed scans into a market picture, so distributors, partners and clients can see how a single domain compares to the wider market and to other countries. Domains are attributed to a country by the country code in their top-level domain; generic extensions such as .com and .eu are counted in the overall benchmark. Curious how your own domain scores?

A Belgian developer-first security platform that unifies SAST, DAST, SCA, secrets, IaC and cloud posture scanning in one tool. What Aikido Security is good at Aikido Security brings code, container and cloud scanning together in a single developer-first platform, with strong CI/CD integration, automated fix pull requests and a generous free tier. It is aimed at development teams rather than compliance-led buyers, and it is EU-hosted but ships without honeypots or framework mapping. Side by side ## How they compare | | Guardian360 | Aikido Security | | --- | --- | --- | | Company origin & data residency | Netherlands, EU-only | Belgium (EU); EU hosting | | Partner model | Partner-only | Direct + partner / MSP | | Deployment approach | Agentless SaaS | Agentless; code, cloud & container connectors | | Compliance coverage | 25+ frameworks, continuously mapped | SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIS2 report; limited framework mapping | | Intrusion detection | Built-in honeypots | No | | Microsoft 365 insight | Included | No | | Container & cloud scanning | Planned for 2026 | Yes (SCA, containers, IaC, CSPM) | | Mobile app | Yes (Android & iOS) | No | | Automation & ease of use | High | High (developer-first, CI/CD) | | Pricing / MSP model | MSP pricing per employee / IP | Per-user/repo; free tier | | Auto-remediation | Partner-guided | Yes (autofix pull requests) | | Free trial / quick scan | Yes, incl. free WordPress plugin | Yes (free tier) | | Smallest client size | From 10 employees / IPs | Startups / SMB | | Data sovereignty (EU-only) | Yes | Yes (EU hosting option) | | Supply-chain compliance | Yes, NIS2/Cbw + CRA questionnaires | No | Based on publicly available information at the time of writing. Vendors evolve quickly, always verify the latest details with each provider. When Aikido Security may fit better A development team that wants to shift security left, catching vulnerabilities in code, dependencies, containers and cloud config inside the CI/CD pipeline, with automated fix pull requests. When Guardian360 fits better An organisation, and the partner serving it, that wants continuous infrastructure and web scanning turned into compliance evidence across 25+ frameworks, with built-in intrusion detection and Microsoft 365 insight, hosted entirely in the EU. Common questions ## Guardian360 vs Aikido Security, answered Is Guardian360 an alternative to Aikido Security? They mostly complement each other. Aikido secures code, dependencies and cloud configuration for development teams; Guardian360 scans your running infrastructure and web applications and maps findings to 25+ compliance frameworks, with built-in intrusion detection. Many organisations run both. Does Aikido map findings to frameworks like Guardian360? Aikido produces SOC 2, ISO 27001 and NIS2 reports but limited cross-framework mapping. Guardian360 continuously maps every finding to 25+ frameworks, which is where compliance-led buyers get the most value. ## See it on your own environment Run a free Quickscan, start a trial, or talk to a partner.

Common questions ## Guardian360 vs Arctic Wolf, answered Is Guardian360 an MDR service like Arctic Wolf? No. Arctic Wolf is a managed 24/7 SOC that monitors and responds on your behalf. Guardian360 is a platform that continuously scans your environment, maps findings to compliance frameworks and includes honeypot-based intrusion detection, delivered through a partner. They complement each other. Where is the data hosted? Guardian360 hosts entirely in the EU by default.

Vendors evolve quickly, always verify the latest details with each provider. When Attic Security may fit better A team whose only concern is deep, continuous Microsoft 365 and Entra ID hardening, and that wants a single tool built specifically for that job. When Guardian360 fits better An organisation that wants Microsoft 365 insight as part of a broader picture: vulnerability scanning, web application security, intrusion detection and 25+ framework compliance mapping in one partner-delivered platform, both Dutch and EU-hosted. Common questions ## Guardian360 vs Attic Security, answered Does Guardian360 do Microsoft 365 security like Attic Security? Yes. Microsoft 365 insight is one of Guardian360’s capabilities: admin roles, MFA adoption, Secure Score, compromised-account flags and more. Attic Security goes deeper on M365 hardening alone; Guardian360 covers M365 alongside scanning, web app security, intrusion detection and compliance. Both are Dutch, why choose Guardian360? If you need more than Microsoft 365 hardening, Guardian360 brings vulnerability scanning, web application security, honeypot-based intrusion detection and continuous compliance mapping together in one EU-hosted platform, delivered through your partner. ## See it on your own environment Run a free Quickscan, start a trial, or talk to a partner.

When Drata may fit better A company whose main goal is certification and supplier-risk automation, with deep third-party risk management and a Trust Center to speed up its own sales. When Guardian360 fits better An organisation that wants to find and fix the technical issues underneath the evidence: Guardian360 Lighthouse scans continuously, maps findings to 25+ frameworks including the Dutch norms, adds built-in detection and Microsoft 365 insight, and keeps data in the EU, delivered through a partner from 10 employees up. Common questions ## Guardian360 vs Drata, answered Is Guardian360 an alternative to Drata? They solve related but different problems. Drata automates compliance evidence and third-party risk; Guardian360 Lighthouse scans your environment for real technical issues and maps them to 25+ frameworks. Many organisations run the two side by side, with Lighthouse supplying the technical evidence underneath the GRC workflow. What is the main difference? Drata has no scanner of its own and ingests findings from other tools, while Lighthouse does the scanning and detection itself, maps the results to frameworks including Dutch norms such as NEN 7510 and BIO, and hosts entirely in the EU. ## See it on your own environment Run a free Quickscan, start a trial, or talk to a partner.

[For MSPs →](https://guardian360.net/for-msps/) ### Hosting providers Give the environments you host continuous security and compliance insight, with partner-branded reporting. ### System integrators Add a security and compliance layer to the solutions you design and deliver. ### Consultancy firms Back your advice with continuous, evidence-based data your clients can act on. ### Web application developers Scan the applications you build and prove they meet the standards that matter. The reality your business is in ## Compliance is now monthly business, and margins are tighter Whatever you deliver today, managed services, hosting, integration or advice, your customers now face NIS2, ISO 27001, BSI, TISAX and customer audits, and they expect you to have the answer. Your team knows the technical side; turning that into a board-level conversation takes a layer your current toolchain does not give you. What this means for your business ## A new line of business, on your terms ### A new advisory revenue stream Compliance retainers, CISO-as-a-service, audit support and recurring business-risk reporting move you from one-off tickets to strategic services your customers already ask for. ### Customer stickiness that compounds Once your customer uses your platform to discuss security with their board, you are inside the strategic conversation. Replacing you costs continuity, not just tools. ### Lower operational overhead Agentless deployment, one platform replacing four or five point tools, and a single multi-tenant console mean fewer engineer hours spent stitching reports together. Your relationship stays your relationship ## No channel conflict, ever Guardian360 sells only through partners. We never compete with you for your customer, and we never go around you. Multi-tenant dashboards and partner-branded reporting keep each customer clearly yours. Why Guardian360 ## Built for partners, made in Europe ![Cybersecurity Made in Europe label](https://guardian360.net/img/ecso-cybersecurity-made-in-europe.png) ### Partner-first, MSP-built Multi-tenant is how the platform was architected, not a feature bolted on later. ### European by design EU data residency on Dutch servers, and 25+ European frameworks, including BIO, NEN, BSI, TISAX, NIS2 and DORA. ### Continuous, not periodic Your customer’s posture is current today, not last quarter. The foundation for advisory conversations that hold up. ### A clear forward path AI Agents coming online to compress time-to-fix and support your team with new skills continuously.
