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

3 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  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

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

CBC positions itself as a leading B2B branding and marketing agency targeting global enterprises. Its competitive advantage lies in decades of experience and a clear focus on transforming complex business challenges into clear brand strategies. The business model revolves around consultancy and creative services for B2B clients. The company leverages partnerships with analytics and marketing platforms to optimize client engagement and marketing effectiveness. Growth indicators include extensive use of marketing automation and analytics tools. The partnership ecosystem includes Cookie Information for compliance, Lead Forensics for lead tracking, and Dreamdata for analytics, reflecting a data-driven approach. Strategic observations suggest CBC maintains a strong market presence in Denmark and internationally, with a medium-sized organizational footprint.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and integrates a detailed cookie consent banner compliant with GDPR, indicating a good privacy and security baseline. Multiple third-party analytics and marketing scripts are used, which necessitates ongoing security audits to mitigate risks. The lack of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap that should be addressed to enhance protection against common web attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. Incident response and security policy documentation are not publicly available, which could be improved to demonstrate security maturity. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from enhanced transparency and technical hardening.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify comprehensive security headers including CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen web security.
  2. Publish clear terms of service and security policy pages to improve transparency and compliance.
  3. Provide explicit company contact emails and phone numbers to enhance business credibility and user trust.
  4. Regularly audit and monitor third-party scripts to prevent potential vulnerabilities and data leakage.
  5. Consider publishing incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies to demonstrate security readiness and encourage responsible reporting.

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.
