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. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

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

The company positions itself as a reputable communications agency with a focus on reputation management for creative and virtuous initiatives. Its parent company, extreme Group, adds credibility and scale. The agency leverages partnerships in key global cities to extend its reach. The business model centers on consulting and strategic communications services, targeting medium to large clients in hospitality, design, and social impact sectors. The website showcases client references and case studies, reinforcing market positioning. Growth potential is supported by integrated environmental and social responsibility consulting through TACTIC/14SEPTEMBRE. The lack of direct contact emails and phone numbers on the site suggests a controlled inbound communication strategy via contact forms.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring encrypted communications. However, no explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which could improve protection against common web attacks. The presence of a cookie consent banner indicates awareness of privacy regulations, but no detailed privacy policy or incident response information is provided. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file was found, limiting transparency for security researchers. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for improvement in headers and documented policies. No obvious vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page detailing GDPR compliance and data handling practices.
  2. Implement and configure security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add explicit incident response and security contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Create and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using the SvelteKit framework, leveraging modern JavaScript modules and Google Fonts for typography. It uses CookieYes for cookie consent management and Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good navigation clarity. Performance is moderate, with preloading of scripts and stylesheets. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or static site generation approach. Hosting provider details are not available from the HTML content. The site lacks some accessibility features and security headers, which are areas for technical improvement. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and modern web presence suitable for the agency's business needs.
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.
