Security score

61/100

Risk levelMedium

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

The website www.derwent-fencing.co.uk is currently inaccessible beyond a security verification page employing Google reCAPTCHA v3, indicating the presence of a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or bot protection mechanism. Due to this, no substantive business content, metadata, or contact information is available for analysis. The WHOIS lookup failed because the query was made on the 'www' subdomain rather than the root domain, resulting in no registrar or domain registration data. Technically, the site uses Bootstrap 5.3.3 and Google reCAPTCHA for frontend styling and bot mitigation, but lacks visible security headers or HTTPS enforcement in the provided data. Privacy and cookie policies are absent, and no contact or business details are exposed. Overall, the site’s security posture is minimal but includes basic bot protection. The lack of accessible content and WHOIS data limits trust and credibility assessments.

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

7 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

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

Due to the blocked content and lack of accessible business information, no detailed business intelligence can be derived. The domain name suggests a fencing-related business, but no company name, services, or market positioning can be confirmed. No partnerships, certifications, or growth indicators are visible. The absence of contact details and policies further limits business credibility evaluation.

Security posture

The security posture is basic, relying primarily on Google reCAPTCHA v3 to prevent automated access. No additional security headers or HTTPS enforcement details are visible. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates potential compliance gaps with GDPR and other regulations. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not found. The site would benefit from enhanced security headers, HTTPS enforcement, and transparent privacy practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate to secure all communications.
  2. Add standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish clear privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and enhance user trust.
  4. Provide visible and accessible contact information including business emails and phone numbers to improve credibility.
  5. Consider implementing a comprehensive security framework and incident response plan to improve overall security posture.

Key observations

  1. Website content is blocked behind a security verification page using Google reCAPTCHA v3.
  2. No meaningful business content or metadata is accessible.
  3. No contact information, privacy, cookie, or terms policies found.
  4. No WHOIS data available due to invalid WHOIS query on 'www' subdomain.
  5. External resources are limited to CDN and Google domains for scripts and styles.
  6. No analytics or advertising scripts detected beyond reCAPTCHA.
  7. Security posture is minimal with only bot protection visible.
  8. Website is not accessible for full content or business analysis.
Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Bootstrap 5.3.3 for styling and Google reCAPTCHA v3 for bot protection. No CMS or hosting provider information is discernible. The page is minimal, serving only as a security verification gate, which impacts performance and user experience negatively. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic due to limited content. SEO optimization is poor as no meta description, keywords, or structured data are present. The site lacks visible analytics or marketing tools beyond reCAPTCHA.
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.
