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

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.

Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

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.

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.

Business context
Business profile
The business operates in the design sector, focusing on UI/UX and digital art direction, targeting professional clients primarily in Germany. The presence of prestigious awards enhances market positioning and credibility. The website content and structure support a service-based business model with direct client engagement via email and LinkedIn. There is no evidence of physical office addresses or phone contacts, suggesting a lean operation. The use of WordPress and popular plugins indicates a cost-effective digital infrastructure. The absence of terms of service or detailed security policies suggests room for maturity in compliance and governance. No related or partner domains were identified, indicating a standalone operation.
Security posture
The website enforces HTTPS and implements a cookie consent banner compliant with GDPR, demonstrating awareness of privacy and security best practices. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which could be improved to enhance trust and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The security score is moderate, reflecting a generally secure but improvable posture.
Recommendations
Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
Consider adding phone contact or physical address details to improve business credibility and compliance.
Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and SEO benefits.

Technical notes
Notes
The website uses WordPress 6.8.1 with the Salient theme and WPBakery Page Builder, supported by Yoast SEO and Complianz GDPR plugins. The tech stack is modern and widely supported, facilitating good SEO and privacy compliance. Performance is moderate, with no major issues detected. Mobile optimization is good, and the site uses standard web fonts and icon libraries like Font Awesome. No custom or legacy scripts with known vulnerabilities were found. Hosting provider details are not explicit but name servers indicate agency hosting. The site could benefit from improved security headers and enhanced accessibility compliance.
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.
