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

Davey & Krista is a specialized creative business focused on providing custom branding and website design services, along with professionally crafted Showit and WordPress website templates. Their market position is strong within the creative professional segment, supported by a decade of domain maturity and a trusted client base exceeding 8,000. The business model combines e-commerce sales of digital products and educational courses, targeting photographers, designers, and other creative entrepreneurs. Technically, the website is built on WordPress integrated with Showit and WooCommerce, hosted by BigScoots. It leverages modern marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Pinterest Pixel, and affiliate tracking. However, performance metrics are not available, and the site shows signs of slow loading. Mobile optimization and SEO are well addressed, but accessibility is basic. Security posture is weak due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of modern TLS protocols, which critically impacts user trust and data protection. Security headers are present but insufficient without HTTPS. Privacy compliance is minimal, with no cookie consent mechanism and a basic privacy policy. Business credibility is high, supported by consistent branding, testimonials, and social proof. Overall, the site presents a professional and trustworthy business front but requires urgent security improvements, especially SSL implementation, to protect users and enhance compliance. Strategic recommendations include securing HTTPS, enabling cookie consent, and enhancing privacy and security policies.

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. 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

    • 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. 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

Davey & Krista operates in the niche of creative business branding and website design, focusing on Showit and WordPress platforms. Their competitive advantage lies in award-winning template designs, direct creator support, and a strong community presence. Revenue streams include template sales, custom design services, and educational courses. The target customer segments are photographers, coaches, influencers, and other creative professionals seeking easy-to-customize websites. Growth indicators include active social media engagement and multiple product offerings. Partnerships with educational platforms and affiliate programs expand their ecosystem. Operationally, the business demonstrates maturity with a 10-year domain age and consistent branding.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is low due to the lack of HTTPS and valid SSL certificates, exposing users to potential data interception risks. Security headers are implemented but cannot compensate for the missing encryption layer. There are no visible vulnerabilities such as exposed credentials or known exploits, but the absence of modern TLS protocols and OCSP stapling reduces security effectiveness. Compliance gaps exist in GDPR-related areas, notably the absence of cookie consent mechanisms and minimal privacy policy detail. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not evident from the site. Overall, the security posture requires immediate remediation to meet basic web security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Implement a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to improve privacy compliance.
  3. Enhance DMARC policy from 'none' to a stricter enforcement to protect email domain reputation.
  4. Enable OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve SSL performance and security.
  5. Regularly audit and update security headers and privacy policies to align with GDPR and industry best practices.
Technical notes

Notes

The website infrastructure is based on WordPress CMS with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality and Showit for design flexibility. The tech stack includes jQuery, Google Analytics, Facebook and Pinterest Pixels, and affiliate tracking scripts. Hosting is provided by BigScoots, with DNS managed via Cloudflare nameservers. Performance data is missing, but the presence of multiple heavy scripts and images suggests potential slow loading times. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design elements. SEO is well implemented with meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Technical risks include lack of SSL and outdated TLS protocols, which could impact user trust and search rankings.
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.
