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
4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
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 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.

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.

Business context
Business profile
AGC positions itself strongly within the interior design and real estate sectors, leveraging its B Corp certification as a competitive advantage emphasizing sustainability and ethical business practices. The diversified brand portfolio allows targeting multiple market segments including luxury residential, commercial, and build-to-rent developments. The company maintains an active presence on major social media platforms, enhancing brand visibility and engagement. However, the absence of explicit privacy and terms of service policies on the website may impact compliance and user trust. The missing WHOIS registration data raises questions about domain transparency but does not directly contradict the business's established market presence.
Security posture
The website employs HTTPS ensuring encrypted communications, but lacks several critical security headers such as HSTS, Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options, which are important for mitigating common web vulnerabilities. The cookie consent banner indicates some level of privacy compliance, but no detailed privacy policy or incident response information is available. No signs of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended HTTP headers and publishing comprehensive security and privacy policies.
Recommendations
Enable HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) to enforce HTTPS usage.
Implement a Content Security Policy (CSP) to reduce risks of cross-site scripting.
Add X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options headers to enhance protection against clickjacking and MIME sniffing.
Publish clear and comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service documents to improve compliance and user trust.
Establish and disclose an incident response policy and contact channels for security issues.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built on Squarespace, a widely used CMS platform, ensuring ease of content management and hosting reliability. It uses modern web technologies including asynchronous loading of analytics and tracking scripts, Typekit fonts for typography, and jQuery for interactive elements. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured data in JSON-LD format. However, the site could benefit from enhanced accessibility features and performance optimizations to improve user experience further.
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.
