Technically, the website is built on a modern WordPress platform utilizing WooCommerce for e-commerce capabilities and Elementor for design flexibility.

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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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 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';…

  4. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • 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

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

Coffey Healthcare operates in the healthcare equipment supply sector, targeting Irish hospitals and healthcare providers. Their business model combines product sales with value-added services such as equipment rentals, maintenance, and training, enabling diversified revenue streams. The company leverages partnerships with international suppliers to maintain a competitive edge and offers a broad product portfolio. Their market positioning as an industry leader is supported by certifications and a commitment to quality management systems. The website reflects a medium-sized enterprise with a professional brand image and a focus on long-term supplier relationships. Growth indicators include active participation in healthcare exhibitions and continuous service expansion. The partnership ecosystem is robust, featuring multiple well-known healthcare brands and service providers.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS encryption and integration of Google reCAPTCHA v3 to mitigate automated abuse on forms. No sensitive data leakage or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security indicates potential areas for improvement. The absence of a published security policy or incident response plan reduces transparency and may impact stakeholder confidence. Overall, the site follows good security practices typical for a healthcare supplier but would benefit from enhanced security documentation and header implementation to align with best practices and regulatory expectations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly audit and update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to meet WCAG standards for broader compliance and usability.
  5. Maintain and document data retention policies and privacy compliance measures to reinforce GDPR adherence.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality and Elementor for page building, indicating a modern and flexible technical infrastructure. It uses popular JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking. The presence of multiple CSS and JS assets from plugins like Revolution Slider and WooCommerce Products Filter suggests a feature-rich site but may introduce some performance overhead. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and includes lazy loading for images. Hosting details are not explicitly identified, but the use of CDN resources like StackPath Bootstrap CDN is noted. Performance is moderate with room for optimization in asset loading and caching strategies. Overall, the technical stack supports the business needs effectively but should be monitored for plugin updates and security patches.
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.
