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

Blueprint Architectural Services is a professional architectural practice based in Wrexham, UK, offering a wide range of architectural services including residential, commercial, industrial projects, and building conversions. Established in 2002, the company serves clients primarily in North Wales and surrounding counties, providing comprehensive design, planning, and construction consultation services. The website reflects a well-structured business with clear service offerings and client engagement mechanisms such as free initial site visits and fixed fee quotations. Technically, the website is built on CMS Made Simple and incorporates modern web technologies including jQuery, FontAwesome, Google Analytics, and Matomo for analytics. The site is mobile-optimized with good navigation and SEO practices. Privacy compliance is addressed with a GDPR policy and cookie consent banner, demonstrating awareness of data protection requirements. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and secure forms but lacks explicit security headers and incident response policies. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of WHOIS domain registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy and registration status, which could impact trustworthiness. Overall, Blueprint Architectural Services presents a professional and credible online presence with room for improvement in security policies and domain registration transparency. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing incident response information, and resolving WHOIS data inconsistencies to strengthen 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

9 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

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

Blueprint Architectural Services holds a strong market position as a leading architectural firm in the Wrexham area, leveraging a reputation built on quality service and client referrals. Their business model focuses on fixed fee quotations and free initial consultations, appealing to a broad client base including residential homeowners, commercial enterprises, and industrial developers. The company’s growth is supported by a diverse service portfolio and regional reach across multiple counties. While no direct partnerships or subsidiaries are identified, the firm maintains active engagement with local authorities and construction professionals. The website’s use of analytics and marketing tools indicates a moderate digital maturity, supporting client acquisition and retention efforts.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and secure contact forms requiring validation. Privacy compliance is evident through GDPR policy and cookie consent mechanisms. However, the lack of security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are published, limiting transparency in security management. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a significant concern, potentially indicating registration or ownership issues that could affect domain trustworthiness. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found, but improvements in security policy communication and technical controls are recommended.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear incident response policy and provide dedicated security contact channels to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Investigate and resolve the missing WHOIS domain registration data to ensure domain legitimacy and build trust with clients.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to comply with standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly update CMS and third-party libraries to mitigate risks from known vulnerabilities and maintain security hygiene.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by CMS Made Simple, a mature content management system, supplemented by popular JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and FontAwesome for UI enhancements. Analytics are implemented via Google Analytics and Matomo, providing comprehensive visitor tracking. The site uses asynchronous loading for scripts and includes a cookie consent mechanism for GDPR compliance. Performance is moderate with video background usage and multiple external resources. Mobile optimization is good with responsive navigation and layout. However, the absence of security headers and incomplete WHOIS data represent technical risks. Opportunities exist to modernize security configurations and improve accessibility compliance.
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.
