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

Beeston Fields Golf Club operates as a regional golf and hospitality venue in the United Kingdom, offering an 18-hole golf course, membership options, golf lessons, pro shop retail, and event hosting services including weddings and private parties. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image targeting golfers, local residents, and event organizers. The technical infrastructure leverages modern web technologies such as jQuery, Bootstrap, FontAwesome, and Google Analytics, hosted partially on Microsoft Azure Blob Storage, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities, although the absence of security headers and incident response policies suggests room for improvement. Privacy compliance is basic with policies present but lacking active cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the site is trustworthy and safe for general audiences, but the domain WHOIS data is unavailable due to an invalid domain query, which slightly reduces domain registration trustworthiness. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, implementing cookie consent, and publishing incident response information to strengthen compliance and security culture.

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

5 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

  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 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';…

  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

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 golf club holds a stable position in the hospitality sector, focusing on golf-related services and event venue offerings. Revenue streams likely include membership fees, green fees, event bookings, and retail sales. The club maintains partnerships with golf booking platforms and indoor golf simulators, enhancing its service ecosystem. The target market includes local golfers, visitors, and community members seeking leisure and event facilities. The website's integration with third-party platforms like Club Systems International Ltd and HowDidiDo.com supports operational efficiency. Growth indicators are not explicitly stated but the presence of multiple service offerings and active social media suggests ongoing engagement. No parent or subsidiary companies were identified, indicating an independent operation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No public security or incident response policies were found, which may impact transparency and readiness. The absence of vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files limits external reporting channels. Privacy policies are present and GDPR compliance is implied but could be improved with explicit cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response page to improve trust and preparedness for security events.
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party libraries and integrations to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of jQuery, Bootstrap, and FontAwesome for UI and styling, with Google Fonts for typography. Google Analytics is integrated for visitor tracking. Media assets are hosted on Microsoft Azure Blob Storage, indicating cloud hosting usage. The site is mobile responsive with a clear navigation structure and consistent branding. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected. Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO optimization is basic with standard meta tags but no advanced structured data or Open Graph tags detected. No CMS was identified, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform possibly provided by Club Systems International Ltd. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but could be enhanced with improved accessibility and SEO practices.
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.
