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

ClickExpose Ltd is a UK-based digital marketing agency specializing in Google Ads management, SEO packages, click fraud protection, and pay monthly website design services. Established in 2023, the company positions itself as a Google Partner and a top-rated Semrush partner, serving ambitious UK businesses aiming to dominate Google search results and maximize ROI. Their business model focuses on delivering measurable results through specialized Google-centric marketing strategies, supported by advanced tools and certifications. The website reflects a high level of professionalism, with comprehensive service descriptions, client testimonials, and trust badges enhancing credibility. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including Tailwind CSS, JavaScript, Google Tag Manager, and lazy loading techniques to ensure fast performance and excellent mobile optimization. The hosting and domain registration are consistent with a legitimate business operation, with no signs of suspicious activity. The site integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Reviews.io, and chat widgets, all implemented with user consent mechanisms to comply with GDPR. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with a good SSL configuration and enforces cookie consent. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not detected, and there is no dedicated security policy or incident response contact information published. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the analysis. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be improved with additional headers and transparency on security policies. The overall risk assessment is low, with the website demonstrating strong business credibility, technical maturity, and privacy compliance. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing a security policy, and providing incident response contacts to further strengthen trust and compliance.

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

6 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 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';…

  2. 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

  3. 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

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

ClickExpose operates in the competitive digital marketing sector, focusing exclusively on Google-related services which differentiates it from broader marketing agencies. Their partnership with Google and Semrush provides access to premium tools and certifications that enhance their market positioning. The company targets UK businesses looking for scalable, ROI-driven marketing solutions, leveraging click fraud protection to reduce wasted ad spend. Their business model includes pay monthly websites, which lowers client entry barriers and supports recurring revenue. The presence of over 600 reviews with a high average rating indicates strong customer satisfaction and effective service delivery. The company’s ecosystem includes partnerships with Google, Semrush, and Reviews.io, reinforcing their credibility and reach. Growth indicators include managing over £55 million in annual Google Ads spend and offering free strategy calls to attract prospects. The firm’s laser focus on Google services suggests a strategic niche specialization that supports competitive advantage and operational excellence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS encryption and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. The use of Google API approved click fraud protection indicates a commitment to safeguarding client ad spend. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents a gap that could expose the site to certain web-based attacks like clickjacking or MIME sniffing. No incident response or security policy pages were found, which limits transparency and preparedness for security incidents. There is no evidence of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries in the front-end code. The site’s security score is good but could be elevated by implementing recommended headers and publishing clear security policies. Overall, the security culture appears professional but would benefit from enhanced documentation and proactive disclosure.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices, data protection measures, and compliance commitments.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact information (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email addresses) to facilitate vulnerability reporting and incident management.
  4. Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments to ensure ongoing protection and compliance.
  5. Enhance transparency by adding a security.txt file to the root domain to support coordinated vulnerability disclosure.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern front-end technologies including Tailwind CSS for styling and JavaScript for interactivity and analytics integration. It employs lazy loading for images and Intersection Observer API to optimize performance and user experience. Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are used for tracking, with consent-based activation to comply with privacy regulations. The site is hosted under a domain registered with 123-Reg Limited, using domain control name servers associated with GoDaddy. Performance is optimized with preloading of key images and asynchronous loading of scripts. Mobile responsiveness and accessibility are well addressed, with semantic HTML and ARIA attributes used in navigation and interactive elements. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or static site architecture. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a fast, secure, and user-friendly digital presence with room for further security enhancements.
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.
