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. 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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 platform targets coffee enthusiasts, baristas, and hobbyists interested in AeroPress brewing techniques. Its competitive advantage lies in its extensive recipe database, community-driven content, and active social media presence. Revenue streams likely include membership subscriptions and possibly affiliate links or partnerships with coffee equipment providers. The site demonstrates growth potential through community engagement and content expansion. Partnerships with coffee brands or equipment manufacturers are implied but not explicitly detailed. The business maintains a small but focused operation with a clear niche market.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and uses clientTransferProhibited status on the domain to prevent unauthorized transfers. Security headers are likely present though not explicitly confirmed. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure mechanism indicates a moderate maturity level in security governance. GDPR compliance is not explicitly documented, and privacy policy details are lacking. The site would benefit from formalizing these aspects to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy detailing data collection, usage, and GDPR compliance.
  2. Add a terms of service page to clarify user rights and responsibilities.
  3. Implement and publish a security policy and incident response plan to improve transparency.
  4. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security.
  5. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting and improve security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Next.js and React, leveraging modern JavaScript and CSS for a responsive and performant user experience. Hosting on DigitalOcean provides reliable infrastructure. The site uses embedded YouTube videos and scalable vector graphics for icons and images, optimizing load times. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility features appear adequate, and the site is mobile-optimized. There is no indication of legacy or vulnerable libraries. Overall, the technical implementation is modern and well-executed with minor opportunities for further enhancement in security headers and privacy compliance.
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.
