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

Blurr Bureau is a creative design and venture studio founded in 2019, operating globally with offices in Melbourne and New York. The company specializes in building brands that connect purpose with profit, offering services such as brand and packaging design, website development, brand experience, and advisory. Their client portfolio includes notable brands like Pepsi Co., Mercedes-Benz, and Live Nation, positioning them as a reputable player in the media and creative industry. The website reflects a professional and modern digital presence built on WordPress, optimized for performance and mobile responsiveness. Technical infrastructure includes use of jQuery, Google Analytics, Ninja Forms, and WP Rocket for caching and optimization, hosted by Bluehost Inc. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer protection, but lacks DNSSEC and security headers, representing areas for improvement. Privacy compliance is limited due to absence of privacy and cookie policies, which should be addressed to meet GDPR and other regulations. Overall, the site is trustworthy, well-branded, and serves its target audience effectively.

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

6 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

  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

      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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

Blurr Bureau operates as a small-sized media and creative agency with a focus on strategic brand building and venture advisory. Their business model leverages a global collaborative network to deliver bespoke branding solutions to ambitious founders and marketing teams. The company demonstrates strong market positioning through partnerships with high-profile clients and a diversified service offering that includes brand design, packaging, digital presence, and advisory services. The presence of physical offices in Australia and the US supports their international reach. The website content and portfolio showcase a high level of professionalism and creative expertise, indicating a growth-oriented and client-focused operation. The lack of explicit privacy and cookie policies suggests a potential gap in compliance that may impact European or global clients.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and domain registration protections such as clientTransferProhibited status. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which could expose the domain to DNS spoofing attacks. No explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options are detected, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. The use of Ninja Forms includes anti-spam honeypot fields, enhancing form security. Google Analytics is implemented for tracking, but privacy compliance mechanisms such as cookie consent banners are absent. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for enhancements in domain security and HTTP header configurations to align with best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to protect against DNS spoofing and improve domain security.
  2. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance and user consent mechanisms.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to harden the website against common attacks.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency by providing incident response contacts and security policies to build trust with clients.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including jQuery, Google Analytics, Ninja Forms, and WP Rocket for caching and performance optimization. Hosting is provided by Bluehost Inc., a reputable provider. The site demonstrates fast loading times and excellent mobile optimization. SEO is supported by Yoast SEO plugin with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine visibility. Accessibility features are basic but adequate. The site uses multiple video and image assets optimized with lazy loading. No critical technical debt or outdated technologies were detected, indicating a well-maintained infrastructure. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and privacy compliance to further strengthen the technical posture.
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.
