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

BAM Agency is a UK-based experiential marketing and promotional staffing agency specializing in youth and student marketing. With over 25 years of experience, the company offers a comprehensive suite of services including experiential marketing, event staffing, digital marketing, brand insights, and youth marketing. The website presents a professional and engaging digital presence, leveraging WordPress with Themify Ultra theme and integrating modern marketing tools such as Iubenda for cookie compliance and Instagram feeds for social proof. However, the absence of visible contact emails, phone numbers, and privacy policy pages slightly detracts from the overall trustworthiness. The WHOIS data for the domain is unavailable, which raises concerns about domain registration transparency and legitimacy.

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. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048
  2. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Weak SPF Policy

      SPF record has permissive policy allowing any server to send email

      What to do: Use -all or ~all qualifier for better email security

  3. 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

  4. 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

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

BAM Agency positions itself as a creative and dedicated marketing partner with a strong focus on youth and student demographics. The business model revolves around delivering brand activations and experiential campaigns that foster deep customer engagement. The company targets brands looking to connect with younger audiences through innovative marketing strategies. The website's content quality and branding consistency indicate a mature and established business. The Instagram presence supports active engagement with the target market. Lack of detailed business registration information and contact details on the website suggests an opportunity to improve transparency and credibility.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and integrates a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR principles via Iubenda, indicating a baseline security and privacy posture. However, no explicit security headers were detected in the provided data, and there is no visible security or incident response policy. The use of third-party scripts such as Instagram Feed Pro and Iubenda requires ongoing monitoring to mitigate potential vulnerabilities. The absence of contact channels for security incidents or abuse reports is a gap in the security posture. Overall, the site demonstrates moderate security maturity but would benefit from enhanced security headers and incident response information.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear and accessible privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Disclose verified company contact information including emails and phone numbers to enhance business credibility.
  3. Implement and verify security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Add a security or incident response page with contact channels for reporting vulnerabilities or abuse.
  5. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure transparency and legitimacy.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress using the Themify Ultra theme, leveraging jQuery and several plugins including Instagram Feed Pro and Yoast SEO Premium. The site uses Iubenda for cookie consent management, indicating attention to privacy compliance. The site appears mobile-optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate with preloading and prefetching of key assets. Accessibility features are basic but present. No hosting provider or CDN information was identified from the data. The technical stack is modern and suitable for the business needs but could be enhanced with additional security headers and performance optimizations.
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.
