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

Admagnetics is a UK-based manufacturer specializing in bespoke electrical power equipment including transformers, chokes, rectifiers, and standby power central battery units. The company emphasizes in-house design and manufacturing with a focus on quality, reliability, and customer-specific solutions. Their market position is that of a specialist manufacturer serving industrial and OEM clients primarily within the UK. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image, highlighting their ISO 9001:2015 quality certification and manufacturing expertise. Technically, the website is built using the Hugo static site generator and incorporates modern frontend technologies such as Bootstrap, jQuery, and Ionicons. The site is mobile-optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. Analytics are handled via Matomo, indicating a moderate level of user tracking, though no explicit cookie consent mechanism or privacy policies are present. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and does not expose sensitive data in the HTML. However, it lacks important security headers and formal privacy and cookie policies, which are critical for compliance and trust. The WHOIS lookup failed due to domain naming rule violations, which raises concerns about domain registration legitimacy, although the website content and branding appear professional and trustworthy. Overall, the website is functional and professional but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance, improved security headers, and clearer contact information to strengthen trust and regulatory adherence.

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

9 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

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

Admagnetics operates in the manufacturing sector, focusing on electrical power equipment for industrial clients. Their competitive advantage lies in their in-house design and manufacturing capabilities, enabling bespoke and optimized solutions. The business model is B2B, targeting OEMs and industries requiring reliable power transformers and related equipment. The company emphasizes quality and experience, supported by ISO certification and a skilled workforce. Their partnership with 'Made in Britain' and use of a professional website theme indicates a commitment to brand credibility. Growth indicators are not explicit, but the broad product range and custom solutions suggest a stable niche market presence. The limited social media footprint and absence of detailed business registration data online may indicate a smaller scale operation or a focus on direct client relationships rather than broad digital marketing.

Security posture

The current security posture is moderate. The website uses HTTPS, which is essential, but lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options that help mitigate common web attacks. No privacy or cookie policies are present, which is a compliance gap under GDPR and related regulations. The absence of incident response contact details or security policies reduces transparency and preparedness for security incidents. The use of Matomo analytics without a consent mechanism further impacts privacy compliance. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security culture appears basic and would benefit from formalizing policies, improving headers, and enhancing user privacy protections.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Publish incident response and security contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Introduce a cookie consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations and inform users about tracking.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and update technologies to maintain security and performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern static site generator (Hugo) with a frontend stack including Bootstrap, jQuery, Ionicons, and Animate.css. It loads external resources from reputable CDNs and uses Matomo for analytics, indicating a preference for open-source and privacy-conscious tools. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and clear navigation. However, accessibility features are basic and could be improved. The lack of security headers and privacy policies represents technical debt in compliance and security. Hosting details are not explicit, and no CMS beyond Hugo is detected. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional web presence but requires enhancements in security and privacy to meet modern standards.
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.
