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

Another Kind Studio is a small, specialized creative agency based in East London, focusing on impactful brand identity and web design services. The company targets brands and businesses seeking strategic and memorable design solutions, positioning itself as a growth-focused and future-proof design partner. The website showcases a professional portfolio with notable clients, reinforcing its market presence in the media and creative sectors. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern performance optimizations and SEO best practices, including the use of Yoast SEO and WP Rocket. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, providing a smooth user experience. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS and modern libraries but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies, which could be improved. Privacy compliance is minimal, with no visible privacy or cookie policies, which is a gap for GDPR adherence. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security disclosures.

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

6 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

  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

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Cloudflare

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 as a creative agency offering a broad range of services including animation, branding, content creation, and web development. Its client base includes major media and music industry players, indicating strong market positioning and credibility. The business model revolves around service delivery to brands needing design and digital presence enhancement. The website's content and client logos suggest a focus on mid to large-sized clients in the media and entertainment sectors. The agency has been established since 2014, indicating maturity and stability. The partnership ecosystem includes recognized industry names, enhancing its competitive advantage. Growth indicators include a well-maintained portfolio and active social media presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enforced and no visible sensitive data exposure. The use of deferred JavaScript and modern libraries reduces attack surface. However, the absence of security headers like Content-Security-Policy and lack of published incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies indicate room for improvement. No signs of vulnerabilities or malware were detected in the content. Privacy compliance is weak, lacking cookie consent mechanisms and privacy policy disclosures, which could expose the business to regulatory risks. Incident response readiness is not evident from the website content.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance security posture.
  3. Publish an incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.
  5. Enhance user trust by adding certifications or trust badges related to security and privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS, leveraging popular plugins like Yoast SEO for search optimization and WP Rocket for performance enhancements. It uses modern JavaScript libraries such as GSAP for animations and Slick Slider for content display. The site is mobile responsive and optimized for accessibility. Hosting details are not explicit but the domain registrar is 123-Reg Limited. Performance is fast with preloading and lazy loading techniques implemented. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, though security headers are missing. The site integrates Google Analytics and AdSense for analytics and advertising, indicating moderate user tracking.
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.
