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

Buran Studio is a small creative design agency based in Lisbon, Portugal, founded in 2010. The company focuses on delivering innovative design solutions to a diverse client base worldwide. Their website reflects a professional and creative brand identity, emphasizing future-oriented and complex problem-solving capabilities. Technically, the site uses modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Modernizr, and integrates Google Analytics and Typekit fonts, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. However, the site lacks comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, and no security headers were detected, which are areas for improvement. The absence of WHOIS registration data for the domain raises concerns about domain legitimacy, which impacts overall trustworthiness. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security posture, adding compliance documentation, and verifying domain registration details to improve credibility and trust.

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

      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, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Buran Studio operates in the creative design sector, targeting businesses globally that require innovative design services. Their market position appears niche and specialized, with a focus on quality and creativity rather than scale. The business model is service-oriented, relying on client projects. The presence of a physical office in Lisbon and clear contact details supports business credibility. The lack of visible partnerships or subsidiaries suggests a standalone operation. The website content and design quality support a professional image, but the absence of privacy and security policies may limit appeal to privacy-conscious clients. Growth potential exists if compliance and security are enhanced.

Security posture

The website demonstrates basic security hygiene with HTTPS usage implied by the og:url meta tag, but lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, or HSTS. No forms or input fields reduce attack surface, but the absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps, particularly with GDPR. The use of Google Analytics without cookie consent mechanisms further highlights privacy compliance risks. The missing WHOIS data is a significant red flag, potentially indicating domain registration issues or privacy protection that is not transparent. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure information are absent, limiting preparedness and transparency. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires improvements to meet best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements and implement a cookie consent mechanism.
  3. Verify and update domain WHOIS registration information to ensure transparency and trustworthiness.
  4. Establish and publicize an incident response plan and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve security culture and stakeholder confidence.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and analytics tools to minimize privacy risks and ensure compliance with data protection regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern but relatively simple technology stack including jQuery 3.3.1, jQuery UI, Modernizr, and Typekit fonts. Google Analytics is integrated for user tracking. The site loads a background video and uses CSS for styling with custom fonts loaded asynchronously. No CMS or hosting provider information is evident. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading but no explicit performance optimizations detected. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic, with no ARIA or accessibility features identified. SEO is basic with minimal meta tags and no structured data such as JSON-LD. The site is functional and visually appealing but could benefit from modernization and enhanced technical SEO and accessibility features.
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.
