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

Claire Rochford's website serves as a professional portfolio showcasing expertise in book design, cover art, and drawings. The site is positioned as a niche creative service provider targeting clients seeking artistic and professional book design solutions. The business appears to be a small, newly established entity based in the United Kingdom, with a focus on visual and creative services. Technically, the website is built on the Adobe Portfolio platform, leveraging modern web technologies such as HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, and is hosted via 123-Reg Limited. The site demonstrates good design quality, mobile responsiveness, and moderate performance, although accessibility and SEO optimizations are basic. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled, but lacks important security headers and formal policies. Privacy compliance is weak due to the absence of privacy and cookie policies and no consent mechanisms. Contact information is notably missing, which impacts business credibility and user trust. Overall, the website is functional and professional but requires enhancements in compliance and security to improve trust and legal standing.

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. 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
    • 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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

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

The business operates as a creative professional portfolio, likely a freelancer or small agency specializing in book and cover design. The market positioning is niche, focusing on artistic and bespoke design services. Revenue streams are presumably project-based commissions. The target customers are authors, publishers, or businesses needing design services. The website lacks explicit partnership or subsidiary information, indicating an independent operation. Growth indicators are limited due to the new domain age and minimal business information. The partnership ecosystem includes Adobe Portfolio as the platform provider and 123-Reg as the registrar. Strategic observations suggest the business should enhance transparency and compliance to build credibility and attract more clients.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communication, which is a fundamental security measure. However, it lacks critical security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options, which help mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No forms or input fields are present, reducing attack surface, but also limiting user interaction. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and other data protection regulations. Google Analytics is used without visible consent mechanisms, potentially exposing the business to privacy compliance risks. Incident response and security policy information are not provided, suggesting limited preparedness for security incidents. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires improvements in headers, policies, and compliance to reduce risk.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Provide clear contact information including email and phone to improve business credibility and user trust.
  4. Introduce a cookie consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations and inform users about tracking.
  5. Develop and publish a security policy and incident response plan accessible to users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Portfolio, a specialized platform for creative portfolios, which simplifies content management and hosting. The tech stack includes standard web technologies (HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript) and integrates Google Analytics for visitor tracking. Hosting is provided by 123-Reg Limited, a reputable UK registrar and hosting provider. Performance is moderate with responsive design and lazy loading of images, enhancing user experience on mobile devices. SEO and accessibility features are basic, with room for improvement in metadata completeness and ARIA attributes. No CMS beyond Adobe Portfolio is detected. The site lacks advanced frameworks or custom backend technologies, indicating a straightforward, static portfolio site. Technical risks are low but modernization opportunities include enhanced SEO, accessibility, and security header implementation.
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.
