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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

  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

  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

Burton Power operates in a niche retail market specializing in performance engine parts for specific automotive brands. Its competitive advantage lies in its long-standing reputation and focused product offering. The business model centers on direct online sales supported by community engagement and technical guides, targeting automotive enthusiasts and tuning professionals primarily in the UK. The company leverages modern e-commerce technologies and integrates marketing and analytics tools to optimize customer experience and sales. However, the lack of visible corporate registration details and privacy documentation may affect customer confidence and regulatory compliance. Strategic partnerships or certifications are not evident, suggesting a primarily independent operation with potential growth opportunities through enhanced transparency and compliance.

Security posture

The website employs strong security measures including HTTPS enforcement, modern security headers, and CAPTCHA protection on login forms, indicating a mature security posture. Use of secure cookies and CSRF tokens further strengthens defenses against common web threats. However, the absence of published security policies, incident response plans, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms limits transparency and preparedness perception. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. To enhance security maturity, Burton Power should consider publishing comprehensive security and privacy policies, implementing a security.txt file, and establishing clear incident response contacts. These steps would improve compliance with GDPR and other regulations while fostering customer trust.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policy pages to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Clarify domain registration details or ensure WHOIS data is publicly available to enhance legitimacy.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file for transparency.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance with standards.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize security risks and privacy concerns.

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.
