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

AnnQuilts.com is a small personal business website operated by Ann Wasserman, specializing in antique and vintage quilt repair, education, and art quilts. The site offers services including quilt restoration, lectures, workshops, and book sales, targeting quilting enthusiasts and antique quilt owners. The business is positioned as a niche expert with a strong personal brand and a history dating back to 1980. Technically, the website is built on static HTML with minimal modern technologies, lacking HTTPS and security headers, which poses significant security risks. The site is not mobile optimized and lacks privacy and cookie policies, indicating low digital maturity. Security posture is weak due to missing HTTPS and security best practices, and no incident response or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are present. Overall, the website provides good content quality and business credibility but requires urgent improvements in security and privacy compliance to reduce risk and enhance trust.

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

10 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  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 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';…

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 business operates in a niche market focused on quilt repair and education, leveraging Ann Wasserman's extensive experience and reputation. Revenue streams include service fees for quilt repair, sales of a specialized book, virtual workshops, and commissioned art quilts. The target audience is primarily quilting hobbyists and collectors interested in antique quilt preservation. The website supports the business model with educational content and social media engagement but lacks modern e-commerce or interactive features. The absence of phone contact and physical address may limit customer trust. The business appears stable but could benefit from enhanced digital presence and security to expand reach and credibility.

Security posture

The website currently exhibits a low security maturity level. The absence of HTTPS is a critical vulnerability exposing users to data interception risks. No security headers are implemented, increasing susceptibility to common web attacks. There is no evidence of privacy or cookie policies, nor any incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, indicating poor compliance with data protection regulations such as GDPR. No forms or input fields are present to analyze for secure handling of user data. The lack of analytics and tracking reduces privacy concerns but also limits business insights. Immediate implementation of HTTPS and security headers is essential, along with privacy policy publication and incident response planning.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate to secure all website traffic.
  2. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and other regulations.
  3. Deploy security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Improve mobile responsiveness and accessibility to enhance user experience.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security contact channel to improve incident response readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using basic HTML and CSS without any detected CMS or modern frameworks. It embeds YouTube videos for multimedia content but lacks analytics or tracking scripts. The site appears to be hosted on an unknown provider with no evident CDN or performance optimization. The design is basic and not mobile responsive, which may affect usability on modern devices. No forms or interactive elements are present, reducing attack surface but also limiting user engagement. The technical debt is moderate due to outdated practices and lack of security features. Modernization opportunities include adopting HTTPS, responsive design, and enhanced SEO and accessibility features.
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.
