The company offers a wide range of products including tables, seating, garden furniture, and accessories, emphasizing quality, affordability, and customer service. Their client base includes notable brands such as McDonald's and Subway, indicating a strong market presence in the hospitality sector. The website is built on WordPress with WooCommerce, integrating modern marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Mailchimp, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced, though the absence of explicit security headers suggests room for improvement.

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

3 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 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 company operates a B2B and B2C e-commerce model focused on hospitality furniture sales. Their competitive advantage lies in a broad product range, nationwide delivery, and established relationships with large clients. The website content and testimonials reinforce credibility and customer satisfaction. The presence of a related furniture hire business suggests a diversified service offering. Marketing efforts leverage multiple tracking and retargeting tools, indicating a data-driven approach to customer acquisition. The company appears to be a small-sized enterprise founded around 2016, with consistent branding and a clear UK geographic focus. Strategic partnerships with design agencies and event hire companies enhance their market ecosystem.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and integrates secure form handling via Gravity Forms. Tracking scripts are used responsibly with privacy policies in place. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options is a notable gap that could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. No evidence of incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies was found, which could be improved to enhance security maturity. The WHOIS data absence raises concerns about domain registration legitimacy, though the website content and business information appear authentic. Overall, the security posture is moderate with recommendations to implement additional headers and formal security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update all WordPress plugins and themes to minimize risks from outdated components.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
  5. Investigate and resolve domain registration inconsistencies to strengthen trust and legitimacy.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality, supported by Gravity Forms for data collection. It uses modern JavaScript libraries and asynchronous loading for performance optimization. SEO is enhanced via Yoast SEO plugin with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). The site is mobile responsive and employs caching and lazy loading for improved speed. However, no hosting provider information was detected, and security headers are missing, which could be a technical risk. The integration of multiple marketing and analytics tools indicates a well-rounded technical setup but requires ongoing maintenance to avoid vulnerabilities.
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.
