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

AGConsult is a well-established usability, CRO, and UX design agency operating primarily in Belgium and the Netherlands. With over 20 years of experience since 2001, the company specializes in user research, AB testing, UX design, conversion optimization, and training/coaching services. The agency serves businesses, governments, and non-profits, positioning itself as an independent and internationally recognized expert in its field. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image, showcasing notable clients and testimonials that reinforce its market credibility. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with WooCommerce and leverages modern tools such as Google Tag Manager and GDPR-compliant cookie management, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place, though explicit security headers and policies could be improved. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain registration trust verification but does not detract significantly from the overall legitimacy given the professional content and client references. Overall, AGConsult presents a strong business and technical profile with good privacy compliance and user experience.

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

5 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 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

  3. 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

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

AGConsult operates in the technology sector as a service agency focused on UX and conversion optimization. Its business model revolves around consulting, training, and coaching, targeting organizations seeking to improve digital user experiences and business outcomes. The company maintains a medium size with a clear focus on the Belgian and Dutch markets. Its competitive advantage lies in its independence, extensive experience, and international recognition through conference engagements. Revenue streams likely include consulting projects, training sessions, and online academy subscriptions. The client portfolio includes reputable brands such as Nespresso, Axa, and TUI, indicating strong market positioning. The agency's ecosystem includes partnerships with clients and uses standard digital marketing and analytics tools. Strategic observations suggest a focus on quality, expertise, and long-term client relationships.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent management compliant with GDPR. However, no explicit security headers (such as CSP, HSTS) were detected in the provided data, and no dedicated security policy or incident response contacts are published. There is no evidence of vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files. The absence of WHOIS data raises minor concerns but is not uncommon for privacy-conscious businesses. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a consulting agency website but could be enhanced by adding security headers, publishing security policies, and establishing incident response contacts to improve transparency and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly audit third-party plugins and scripts to ensure no vulnerable libraries are in use.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with WooCommerce for e-commerce capabilities, enhanced by plugins such as Yoast SEO for search optimization and Complianz for GDPR cookie consent management.

The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and SEO practices with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in loading speed and accessibility compliance. The technical stack is mature and widely supported, but the hosting provider and server configuration details are not disclosed. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and user-friendly digital presence.
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.
