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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

    • 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 firm maintains a strong market position in Florida's legal sector, leveraging a collaborative and forward-thinking attorney team. Its business model focuses on comprehensive legal services for business clients, supported by a robust content strategy featuring news, insights, and recognitions. The firm actively engages with media and legal rankings, enhancing its brand visibility and credibility. The website's extensive contact information across multiple Florida locations supports accessibility and client engagement. The absence of WHOIS data is a notable anomaly but does not detract from the firm's evident operational scale and market presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enabled and use of Google Tag Manager for analytics. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are not confirmed and should be implemented to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. The site lacks visible incident response or security policy pages, which could improve transparency and preparedness. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a professional services website but can be enhanced with additional headers and documented policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options headers to strengthen web security.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response information to improve transparency and client trust.
  3. Investigate and resolve the missing WHOIS data to ensure domain registration legitimacy and reduce risk.
  4. Maintain regular audits of third-party scripts and analytics tools to prevent vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance privacy compliance disclosures with clear data retention policies and user rights information.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end stack with Bootstrap 3.3.7 and Normalize.css for styling consistency. Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are used for tracking, loaded asynchronously to optimize performance. Web fonts are served via WOFF2 format for efficient loading. The site appears mobile-optimized with responsive design elements. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph tags, and JSON-LD structured data describing the business, locations, and news articles. No CMS or hosting provider information is explicitly detected. Performance is moderate, with potential for improvement by updating Bootstrap to a newer version and optimizing third-party scripts.
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.
