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

CF Holcomb Guitars is a small artisan business specializing in handmade guitars crafted in Santa Cruz, California. The website serves as a portfolio and sales platform showcasing guitar models, past works, pricing, and workshop information. The business targets guitar enthusiasts and musicians seeking custom, handcrafted instruments. The market position is niche, focusing on craftsmanship and direct sales. Technically, the website is built on the Wix platform using Wix's Thunderbolt framework and standard JavaScript libraries. The site is moderately optimized for performance and mobile devices but lacks advanced SEO and accessibility features. The infrastructure is typical for small business Wix sites, hosted on Wix's infrastructure. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced but lacks important security headers and policies such as privacy and cookie policies. No incident response or security contact information is provided. The absence of WHOIS data raises concerns about domain registration legitimacy, impacting trustworthiness. Overall, the website is functional and serves its business purpose but requires improvements in privacy compliance, security best practices, and domain registration transparency to enhance trust and reduce risk.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  3. 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: MongoDB

      Port 27017 (MongoDB) is publicly accessible - MongoDB - NoSQL database

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MongoDB using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
  4. 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"

    • 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';…

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 · found on this site
  • 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

The business operates in a specialized artisan guitar manufacturing sector, focusing on handcrafted instruments. Revenue likely derives from direct sales and workshop services. The target market includes musicians and collectors valuing craftsmanship. The website's content and structure indicate a small-scale operation without extensive digital marketing or e-commerce sophistication. Social media presence on Facebook and Instagram supports community engagement. Lack of formal policies and WHOIS transparency suggests a need for professionalization to support growth and compliance.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS, which is a fundamental security measure. However, it lacks critical security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating non-compliance with GDPR and other privacy regulations. No incident response or security contact information is available, limiting the ability to report or respond to security issues. The missing WHOIS data is a significant concern, as it obscures domain ownership and accountability. Overall, the security maturity is low to moderate, with room for significant improvement.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and enhance user trust.
  2. Add essential security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, HSTS) to improve web security posture.
  3. Provide clear contact information for security incidents, including a dedicated security or abuse email address.
  4. Verify and update domain WHOIS information to ensure transparency and legitimacy.
  5. Enhance accessibility and SEO features to improve user experience and search engine visibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Wix platform using Wix Thunderbolt and standard JavaScript libraries. It uses modern web technologies but relies heavily on Wix's infrastructure and scripts. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. Mobile optimization is basic but functional. The site lacks advanced SEO metadata beyond basic Open Graph tags and JSON-LD for website schema. No custom analytics or tracking scripts were detected beyond Wix's standard scripts. The technical debt is low due to platform reliance but limits customization and advanced 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.
