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

Brilliant Logic is a boutique marketing, PR, and design agency based in Sydney and the Central Coast, Australia. The company offers a broad range of services including marketing strategy, digital marketing, crisis public relations, social media management, graphic design, photography, video production, event management, and website design. Their market position is that of a creative and innovative agency focused on bold storytelling and building strong brand connections. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with strong client partnerships and a clear focus on delivering impactful marketing solutions. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using Elementor as the page builder, with additional plugins such as Yoast SEO and SiteGround Optimizer indicating a modern and optimized infrastructure. Hosting appears to be provided by SiteGround, and the site uses HTTPS with no visible security vulnerabilities in the HTML content. The site is mobile optimized and has good SEO practices, although accessibility features are basic. From a security perspective, the site benefits from HTTPS and does not expose sensitive data or use vulnerable libraries. However, it lacks important security headers and does not provide any visible security or incident response policies. Privacy compliance is weak, with no privacy or cookie policies detected, and no GDPR compliance indicators. Analytics are implemented via Google Tag Manager, which implies moderate user tracking. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from improved privacy compliance and enhanced security headers. Strategic recommendations include adding privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms, implementing security headers, enabling DNSSEC, and publishing incident response information to improve 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

8 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

      • 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

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

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

Business profile

Brilliant Logic operates as a small boutique marketing agency targeting businesses and organizations in Australia, particularly in Sydney and the Central Coast. Their competitive advantage lies in their creative, bold, and innovative approach to marketing and PR, supported by a diverse service portfolio. The agency serves a wide range of sectors including media, hospitality, retail, non-profit, and other industries. Revenue streams likely come from service contracts in marketing strategy, digital campaigns, event management, and creative design. The company has built lasting partnerships with iconic brands, enhancing its market credibility. The website content and client logos suggest a strong partnership ecosystem and a focus on delivering measurable results. Growth indicators include active social media presence and a comprehensive service offering. The business model is service-based with a focus on strategic branding and storytelling.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture. HTTPS is properly implemented, ensuring encrypted communications. No sensitive data is exposed in the HTML content, and no outdated or vulnerable libraries are detected. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents a missed opportunity to harden the site against common web attacks. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which limits transparency and preparedness for security incidents. Privacy compliance is lacking, with no privacy or cookie policies found, which could expose the business to regulatory risks under GDPR or similar frameworks. The use of Google Tag Manager indicates some level of user tracking but without clear consent mechanisms. Overall, the security culture appears basic with room for improvement in compliance and proactive security measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with a user consent mechanism to ensure GDPR and privacy law compliance.
  2. Add essential security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve site security.
  3. Enable DNSSEC for the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  4. Publish an incident response policy and provide dedicated security contact channels to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Conduct a privacy impact assessment and implement data protection officer contact information if applicable to strengthen data governance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform using Elementor for page building, supported by Yoast SEO for search optimization and SiteGround Optimizer for performance enhancements. The tech stack includes jQuery and Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking. Hosting is inferred to be SiteGround based on nameservers and plugin usage. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate with some deferred scripts and optimized CSS. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. There is no evidence of technical debt or outdated technologies. Opportunities exist to enhance security headers and implement privacy compliance features. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid and supports the business goals effectively.
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.
