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

3 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 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. 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

The company positions itself as a recruitment technology and services provider, offering job search capabilities, recruitment software, and client services. It maintains partnerships with related domains such as networxsolutions.co.uk and iris.co.uk, enhancing its service ecosystem. The business model relies on sponsored job listings and software solutions for in-house recruitment teams. The target audience includes job seekers and recruitment professionals primarily in the UK. The website content and branding are consistent and professional, supporting a medium-sized enterprise with a strong digital presence and social media engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced, use of anti-forgery tokens in forms, and a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism allowing granular user control. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents areas for enhancement. No direct incident response or security policy information is published, which could be improved to increase transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from additional hardening and published policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and trust.
  4. Add a terms of service page to complete legal documentation and user agreements.
  5. Consider adding direct company contact emails and phone numbers to improve user trust and support accessibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a solid technical foundation using ASP.NET with jQuery, Bootstrap, and Material Design components. Hosting is via AWS as indicated by DNS nameservers. The site loads multiple CSS stylesheets and JavaScript libraries for UI components, file uploads, and analytics. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA roles. SEO is supported by meta tags and Open Graph data. The site uses Google Analytics and Google Ads for tracking and marketing. There is no detected CMS, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Technical risks are low but could be reduced further by modern security enhancements and performance optimizations.
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.
