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. 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';…
  2. 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

  3. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

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

Bethere operates as a specialized communication and digital services provider with a strong local presence in Waregem. Their business model focuses on delivering tailored branding, website, and webshop solutions, supported by marketing consulting. The company leverages client testimonials and references to build trust and market positioning. Their use of WordPress and popular plugins indicates a cost-effective and scalable approach. The target audience includes small to medium local businesses seeking professional communication services. The company has maintained consistent branding and content quality since its founding in 2006, indicating stable operations and market relevance.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Google reCAPTCHA v3 to protect its contact forms from spam and abuse. However, no explicit security headers were detected, which could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. There is no published security policy or incident response contact, which limits transparency and preparedness. The contact form includes a GDPR-compliant consent checkbox, supporting data protection compliance. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified in the provided content. Overall, the security posture is moderate to good but could be strengthened by implementing recommended headers and policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities and maintain security hygiene.
  4. Enhance website accessibility to meet broader compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Consider documenting data retention policies and improving privacy compliance disclosures to align with GDPR best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for interactivity. It uses Google Fonts for typography and integrates Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for tracking user behavior. The contact form is powered by Contact Form 7 with Google reCAPTCHA v3 for spam prevention. Performance is moderate with standard optimizations, and mobile responsiveness is good. The site lacks advanced accessibility features and security headers, which are areas for technical improvement. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid for a small business but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security controls.
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.
