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. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Domain Expires Soon

      Domain expires in 20 days

      What to do: Renew domain registration before expiration

  2. 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
  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

Babble Cloud positions itself as a specialist provider of core technology solutions that unify disparate IT and telecommunication systems for SMBs. Their competitive advantage lies in their outcome-focused approach, deep expertise across cyber security, Microsoft technologies, and customer experience platforms, and a long-standing presence in the UK market. The company leverages HubSpot's marketing and CMS platform to engage customers and manage digital presence effectively. Their partnership ecosystem includes Microsoft and other technology providers, with integrations supporting cloud, AI readiness, and unified communications. Growth indicators include a large customer base and emphasis on modern technology trends such as AI and cyber security. Strategic observations suggest Babble Cloud is focused on long-term client relationships and continuous technology evolution through structured processes like AIME.

Security posture

Babble Cloud demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced site-wide and domain registration secured with clientTransferProhibited status. The absence of DNSSEC is a minor gap that could be addressed to enhance DNS security. No explicit security policy or incident response information is published, which could be improved to increase transparency and preparedness. The website uses cookie consent banners compliant with GDPR, indicating awareness of privacy regulations. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of HubSpot's secure platform and modern analytics tools supports a secure operational environment. Recommendations include implementing security headers, publishing a security policy, and adding a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to improve security maturity and customer trust.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and configure security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response information on the website to enhance transparency.
  4. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Consider publishing direct contact information for security incidents (e.g., security@babble.cloud) to improve incident response readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on HubSpot CMS, leveraging HubSpot's marketing and analytics tools alongside Google Analytics 4 and Google Tag Manager for data collection and user tracking. The site uses modern web fonts and responsive design techniques ensuring good mobile optimization. Performance is moderate with deferred loading of CSS and JavaScript assets. The infrastructure is hosted likely within HubSpot's EU data centers, providing reliable uptime and compliance with EU data protection standards. No deprecated or vulnerable libraries were detected. The site uses multiple external domains primarily for marketing, analytics, and content delivery. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in security headers and DNSSEC would enhance the overall technical robustness.
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.
