Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
4.1 s · 690 KiBAbout 690 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.1 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.9 s · 375 KiB16 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (375 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
2.2 s6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.2 s.
Mobile performance score: 57
57/100Your mobile performance score is 57 (desktop: 91). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Optanon and Hubspot and others), adding 1.0 MB and 667 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 123 KiBAbout 123 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 314 ms
314 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 314 ms of main-thread work and 325 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Hubspot adds 134 ms
134 msHubspot costs a phone 134 ms of main-thread work and 307 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 167 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Improve image delivery
15 KiB1 image could be 15 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 91 but mobile only 57. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
Minify JavaScript
9 KiB9 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Minify CSS
8 KiB8 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
2 checks passed

Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 14.9 s
14.9 sYour largest element takes 14.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “ThreatX is now a part of A10 Networks The A10 Defend portfo…”.
Time to Interactive: 14.9 s

First Contentful Paint: 4.7 s
4.7 sThe first text or image appears after 4.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.8 s
7.8 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
1 image without width and height
1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Not enough real-visitor data yet
Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.
2 checks passed
Total Blocking Time: 140 ms
140 msScripts block the page for only 140 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
About 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit
0.52 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.52 g of CO₂e: 62.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
4 checks passed
Page weight: 1.8 MB in 71 requests
1.8 MBYour homepage downloads 1.8 MB in 71 requests on a phone: scripts 1.2 MB (21), images 314 KiB (18) and other files 101 KiB (22). That is a lean page.
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
8 text elements with low contrast
8 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
<html> element must have a lang attribute (1 element)
<html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
4 links without text
4 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
No page language
The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h5, h2 → h5 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

Every image has alt text
All 31 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
42 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 5 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
2 links crawlers can't follow
2 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
110 internal links, 13 external
The homepage links to 110 pages on threatx.com and 13 external pages.

AI search readiness
No llms.txt
There is no https://www.threatx.com/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
3 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (765 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
3 pages without a meta description
https://www.threatx.com/documentation, https://www.threatx.com/products/risk-based-blocking and https://www.threatx.com/products/multi-cloud-deployment have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages share a meta description
https://www.threatx.com/use-cases/credential-stuffing-prevention and https://www.threatx.com/use-cases/prevent-sensitive-data-exposure use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
2 pages without an H1
https://www.threatx.com/mssps and https://www.threatx.com/tour/api-application-protection-platform have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
1 page with very little text
https://www.threatx.com/documentation has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.
