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

8 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

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  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 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
  • 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 company operates in the media and advisory sectors, focusing on corporate communications and social impact initiatives. It serves a niche market of clients requiring strategic communication and advisory services, including EU advisory and geopolitical analysis. The business model is service-oriented, relying on professional expertise and client engagements. The presence of partner media sites like cde.news and thedispatch.mt suggests a collaborative ecosystem enhancing content distribution and market reach. The company is small-sized, with a clear brand identity and consistent messaging. No parent or subsidiary companies are identified. The website content quality and branding consistency support a credible market position.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and WordPress security plugins, indicating a baseline security posture. However, the absence of explicit security headers (e.g., CSP, HSTS) and lack of published security policies or incident response contacts reveal areas for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The site does not provide a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file, limiting transparency for security researchers. Overall, the security maturity is moderate, suitable for a small advisory firm but requiring enhancements to meet higher compliance standards such as GDPR and NIS2.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to enhance security transparency.
  3. Add security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options to strengthen security posture.
  4. Provide clear incident response contact channels including security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  5. Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform using Gutenberg blocks and Jetpack plugins, hosted on WordPress.com infrastructure. It uses Google Fonts and Twemoji for typography and emoji support. The site loads asynchronously loaded scripts for remote login and emoji support, indicating a focus on performance and user experience. The design is responsive and accessible, with good SEO meta tags and Open Graph data for social sharing. Performance is moderate, typical for WordPress.com hosted sites. Technical risks include reliance on third-party plugins and lack of explicit security headers. Opportunities exist to optimize loading times and enhance security configurations.
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.
