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

Deans Farm Market operates as a local farm market and community event venue in Wilson, North Carolina, offering farm products, summer camps, field trips, and various community events. The business targets families, schools, and local residents seeking quality farm goods and educational experiences. The website is built on WordPress using the Astra theme and WooCommerce for e-commerce capabilities, supplemented by plugins such as MetaSlider and EventON for enhanced functionality. The technical infrastructure is modern and mobile-optimized, though some performance and accessibility improvements are possible. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled, but lacks important security headers and privacy compliance mechanisms such as cookie consent banners. The absence of WHOIS data raises concerns about domain registration legitimacy, though the website content and contact information appear professional and trustworthy. Strategic recommendations include improving security headers, implementing privacy compliance features, and verifying domain registration status to enhance trust and security.

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. 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

  2. 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';…

  3. 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

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 business is positioned as a small local retail and educational service provider, combining farm market sales with experiential offerings like summer camps and field trips. Its competitive advantage lies in community engagement and quality farm products. Revenue streams likely include direct sales, event fees, and venue rentals. The target customer segments are local families, schools, and event attendees. The company maintains a Facebook presence to engage customers. There is no evidence of parent or subsidiary companies. The business model is straightforward and community-focused, with growth potential through expanded events and educational programs.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no visible sensitive data exposure. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security reduces protection against common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, indicating limited security governance. Privacy compliance is minimal, with no cookie consent or GDPR indicators. The absence of WHOIS data is a notable risk factor for domain legitimacy. Overall, the security posture is functional but requires enhancements to meet best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement essential security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, HSTS) to strengthen web security.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner and privacy compliance mechanisms to align with GDPR and other regulations.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and incident response.
  4. Verify and update domain registration information to ensure legitimacy and reduce risk.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and SEO optimization to improve user experience and discoverability.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern WordPress CMS with the Astra theme and WooCommerce plugin, supported by additional plugins for sliders, event management, and advanced Gutenberg blocks. The tech stack includes jQuery and Google Fonts. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. Mobile responsiveness is good, but accessibility features are basic. No advanced analytics or tracking scripts were detected, indicating minimal user tracking. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified. The site lacks some technical SEO and security best practices, which could be improved to enhance overall site quality and security.
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.
