0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

Acquire Digital is a UK-based technology company specializing in digital signage, interactive kiosks, and digital wayfinding solutions. With over 25 years of experience and more than 25,000 global installations, the company positions itself as an established player in the digital signage industry, targeting businesses and organizations seeking to enhance visitor engagement. The website is professionally designed using the Framer platform, leveraging modern fonts and Cloudflare DNS services to ensure performance and security. However, the site lacks explicit privacy and cookie policies, as well as visible contact information, which are important for compliance and user trust. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enabled and Cloudflare DNS usage, but DNSSEC is not enabled, and security headers are not explicitly confirmed. Overall, the website is accessible, professional, and business-focused but would benefit from improved privacy compliance and clearer contact details.

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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Weak SPF Policy

      SPF record has permissive policy allowing any server to send email

      What to do: Use -all or ~all qualifier for better email security

  2. 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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • 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

  3. 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"

    • 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';…

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 operates a B2B business model providing digital signage and kiosk solutions across various industries. Its market position is strengthened by a long operational history and a large number of installations worldwide. The website content is targeted at businesses requiring interactive digital solutions, emphasizing innovation and experience. The absence of detailed contact information and privacy policies may limit trust for some visitors. No evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries was found in the analyzed content. The company appears to maintain a consistent brand image and messaging aligned with its technology sector focus.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and Cloudflare DNS, indicating a baseline of security best practices. However, the lack of DNSSEC and explicit security headers suggests room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The absence of a security policy, incident response contact, or vulnerability disclosure mechanism reduces transparency and preparedness perception. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced by implementing recommended policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with a user consent mechanism to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  3. Add explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen browser security.
  4. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for general and security incident reporting.
  5. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible security communication.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using the Framer platform, utilizing modern web fonts and hosted behind Cloudflare DNS services. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata including Open Graph and Twitter card tags. Performance is moderate with no obvious blocking or errors. The absence of analytics or tracking scripts suggests minimal user tracking. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from additional security hardening and privacy compliance features. No CMS other than Framer was detected. Hosting appears stable and professional.
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.
