The website cargo-express.co.uk currently serves a JavaScript-based proof-of-work CAPTCHA challenge page, indicating that access to the actual site content is blocked by a Web Application Firewall or similar security mechanism. This prevents extraction of meaningful business, contact, or policy information. The domain is long-registered since 1998 with GoDaddy, suggesting an established presence, but the lack of accessible content limits assessment of the company's market position or services. Technically, the site uses modern JavaScript features and AWS CloudFront CDN for content delivery, but lacks visible security headers and privacy compliance indicators. The security posture is minimal, relying on the CAPTCHA challenge as a primary defense. Overall, the site is inaccessible for detailed analysis, resulting in a low AI score and limited trustworthiness.

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.
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
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"

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.

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.

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
Due to the blocked content, no direct business intelligence can be gathered from the site. The domain age suggests a potentially longstanding business, but no information on company structure, services, or market positioning is available. No contact or policy information is present, limiting insights into customer engagement or compliance maturity. The site appears to target general visitors but does not provide content to confirm target audience or business model.
Security posture
The site employs a JavaScript-based proof-of-work CAPTCHA challenge to mitigate automated access, indicating some level of security awareness. However, no standard security headers or HTTPS enforcement details are visible, and no incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided. The absence of privacy and cookie policies suggests compliance gaps. The security posture is weak beyond the WAF challenge, with no visible secure forms or data protection mechanisms.
Recommendations
Implement and expose standard HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
Ensure HTTPS is properly configured and enforced site-wide with visible SSL indicators.
Publish clear privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and other regulations.
Provide accessible contact information including security incident response contacts.
Improve site accessibility and SEO by providing meaningful content beyond the CAPTCHA challenge.

Technical notes
Notes
The site uses advanced JavaScript including Web Workers and cryptographic functions to implement a proof-of-work CAPTCHA challenge, served via AWS CloudFront CDN. However, the actual business content is inaccessible due to this challenge. No CMS or frameworks are detected. Performance is moderate given CDN usage, but mobile optimization and accessibility are basic due to minimal content. SEO is poor with no metadata beyond charset and viewport. The technical implementation focuses on security challenge rather than user experience or content delivery.
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.
