Fabricca is an international, award-winning creative design and branding agency founded in 2013 and based primarily in North Macedonia with presence in Munich and Vienna. The agency offers a broad range of creative services including design, branding, web development, motion graphics, digital marketing, copywriting, video production, and photography. With a team of about 20 professionals and over 1000 clients served globally, Fabricca positions itself as a multi-disciplinary agency focused on delivering high-quality creative solutions. The website reflects a mature digital presence built on WordPress with modern frontend technologies and SEO optimizations. Hosting is provided by DreamHost, and the domain is registered via NameCheap with a consistent registration history.

Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-structured, but could improve compliance and security transparency.

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

10 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  2. 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';…

  3. 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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

Fabricca operates in the media sector as a creative agency targeting businesses and organizations seeking branding and digital creative services. Their business model is service-based with a focus on multi-disciplinary offerings and partnerships to extend capabilities. The agency has a strong market position supported by international awards and a diverse client portfolio including notable organizations like The World Bank and USAID. Their growth is indicated by a growing team and extensive client list. The company leverages modern web technologies and marketing analytics tools to support its digital presence. However, the lack of explicit privacy and security policies may pose compliance risks in regulated markets. The agency's partnership ecosystem includes collaborations with other service providers to offer digital marketing, copywriting, and video production services.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer lock enabled. However, it lacks several recommended security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could mitigate common web attacks. No incident response or security policies are published, and no dedicated security contact channels are provided. The absence of DNSSEC is a minor gap in domain security. The use of third-party scripts like Google Analytics and Hotjar introduces tracking but no vulnerabilities were detected in included libraries. Privacy compliance is weak, lacking GDPR-related disclosures and cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a creative agency website but could be improved to reduce risk and enhance trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance and consent mechanisms.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance web security.
  3. Enable DNSSEC for the domain to improve DNS security.
  4. Publish explicit security and incident response policies including dedicated contact channels for security issues.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.1 with a modern tech stack including jQuery, Anime.js, GSAP, Owl Carousel, and Lottie animations for rich interactive content. SEO is enhanced using the Yoast SEO plugin. Hosting is provided by DreamHost, a reputable provider. Performance is moderate with deferred loading of scripts and preloading of fonts. Mobile optimization is good with responsive design and adaptive animations. Accessibility is basic but could be improved with more ARIA attributes and semantic HTML. The website uses Google Tag Manager and Hotjar for analytics and user behavior tracking. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and security hardening.
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.
