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

B Lab UK operates as the UK representative of the global B Corporation movement, promoting sustainable and equitable business practices. The website serves as an informational and advocacy platform, providing resources, certification guidance, and community engagement for businesses interested in becoming B Corps. The organization appears well-established with a domain age of 10 years, consistent with its mission and market presence. Technically, the website employs modern JavaScript frameworks, integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools, and implements GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanisms. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and bot protection via reCAPTCHA, though some security headers could be improved. Overall, the site is professional, accessible, and trustworthy, though it lacks explicit privacy policy and terms of service links in the provided content. Contact information is not directly visible in the analyzed HTML, which could be enhanced for better user trust and compliance.

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

2 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 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. 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.

Business context

Business profile

B Lab UK positions itself as a key player in the sustainable business certification sector within the UK. Its business model focuses on non-profit advocacy, certification facilitation, and educational outreach. The website targets businesses and stakeholders interested in environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria and B Corp certification. The organization leverages partnerships and campaigns such as the Better Business Act to amplify its impact. The digital presence reflects a medium-sized organization with consistent branding and a clear market niche. The absence of direct contact details on the homepage suggests a focus on informational content rather than direct sales or support. The use of multiple tracking and marketing tools indicates an active engagement strategy to grow its community and influence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS, integration of reCAPTCHA v3 to mitigate automated abuse, and a cookie consent banner supporting GDPR compliance. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are not evident in the provided HTML, representing an area for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content analyzed. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact reduces transparency in security governance. The site would benefit from publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting. Overall, the security measures are adequate for the site's purpose but could be enhanced to align with best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify comprehensive security headers including CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a clear privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the homepage or footer.
  3. Add explicit contact information including emails and phone numbers for user support and compliance.
  4. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve security transparency.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure compliance with privacy regulations and minimize tracking footprint.

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-based frontend with deferred module scripts and Typekit fonts, indicating a focus on performance and design quality. Integration with Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and LinkedIn Insight Tag shows a comprehensive marketing and analytics setup. CookiePro is used for consent management, supporting GDPR compliance. Hosting and domain registration are consistent with UK-based operations, registered through Freeola Limited. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO metadata including Open Graph tags. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts to improve page load times. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or headless CMS solution. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable web 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.
