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

Arolco Engineering Solutions is a small, family-owned manufacturing business specializing in engineering solutions and steel fabrication with over 30 years of experience. The company operates primarily in the UK, serving industrial clients requiring production equipment and steel fabrication services. The website is built on the Wix platform, leveraging Wix's Thunderbolt framework and standard polyfills for compatibility. The site is professionally designed with good content quality and clear business information, although it lacks comprehensive privacy and cookie policies. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS implied but no explicit security headers detected. WHOIS data is unavailable, which reduces domain trustworthiness and raises questions about domain registration status. Overall, the business appears legitimate and professional, but improvements in privacy compliance and security practices are recommended.

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

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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 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';…

  3. 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

The company positions itself as an established regional player in manufacturing and engineering, emphasizing family ownership and decades of experience. Its business model focuses on providing specialized engineering solutions and steel fabrication services to production industries. The website targets industrial clients and businesses in need of custom manufacturing solutions. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries from the website content. The absence of WHOIS data and privacy policies suggests areas for improvement in digital maturity and compliance. The company could benefit from enhancing its online trust signals by adding certifications, privacy policies, and incident response contacts.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS as indicated by canonical URLs, but no security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, or X-Frame-Options were detected in the provided data. There are no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data in the HTML content. The site does not display any privacy or cookie policies, nor does it provide incident response or security contact information. The lack of WHOIS data reduces trust in domain legitimacy. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing security headers, publishing privacy and cookie policies, and providing clear incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance statements.
  3. Add terms of service and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Verify domain registration status and ensure WHOIS data is publicly available or properly privacy protected with justification.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and libraries.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Wix platform using Wix Thunderbolt framework and includes standard polyfills for browser compatibility. The site uses modern web fonts and responsive design techniques, providing good mobile optimization and user experience. Performance is moderate, typical for Wix-hosted sites. SEO optimization is basic with meta tags and structured data present but no advanced SEO features detected. No analytics or tracking scripts were explicitly found in the provided content. The technical infrastructure is stable but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and privacy compliance 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.
