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

Diesel Power (East Anglia) Ltd is a small, reputable company specializing in the hire, sale, service, and repair of diesel generators, primarily serving the East Anglia region in the United Kingdom. Established in 2006, the company targets a broad range of industries including oil and gas, wind, agriculture, manufacturing, and healthcare. Their business model focuses on providing immediate power solutions with 24/7 emergency support, positioning them as a reliable regional specialist. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with clear contact channels and trust indicators such as ISO 9001 certification. Technically, the website is built on the Multiscreensite CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries like jQuery and skrollr for animations, and integrates Snowplow analytics for user tracking. The site is hosted on CDN infrastructure, ensuring moderate performance and good mobile optimization. SEO and accessibility are basic but adequate for the business needs. Security practices include HTTPS enforcement and use of reCAPTCHA on forms, though explicit security headers are not detected. The security posture is solid with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data, but could be improved by adding security headers and incident response information. Privacy compliance is basic with cookie consent and privacy policies linked via partner domains, but GDPR compliance indicators are minimal. WHOIS data is unavailable due to domain registration errors, which raises concerns about domain legitimacy despite the professional website content. Overall, the website presents a trustworthy and professional front for a small energy services business, but domain registration issues should be addressed to enhance legitimacy and trust. Strategic recommendations include improving security headers, enhancing privacy compliance, and verifying domain registration status to mitigate risk.

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. 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  3. 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

Diesel Power (East Anglia) Ltd operates as a specialized service provider in the energy sector, focusing on diesel generator hire, sales, and maintenance. Their competitive advantage lies in 24/7 emergency support and a broad industry reach, including offshore and industrial clients. Revenue streams likely include equipment hire, sales, service contracts, and parts supply. The company targets businesses requiring reliable power solutions, emphasizing immediate response and quality service. The presence of ISO 9001 certification suggests a commitment to quality management. The website's partnership with Yell.com indicates a strategic marketing channel. Growth indicators include a comprehensive service portfolio and regional specialization. No parent or subsidiary companies are identified, indicating an independent small business operation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced site-wide and use of Google reCAPTCHA on contact forms to mitigate spam and abuse. No sensitive data is exposed in the HTML content, and cookie consent mechanisms are implemented. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security represents a gap that could be exploited by attackers. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, limiting transparency and preparedness. The WHOIS lookup failure and domain registration error introduce uncertainty about domain legitimacy, which could pose reputational risks. Overall, the security posture is good but can be enhanced by adopting additional best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to harden the website against common attacks.
  2. Establish and publish an incident response policy and vulnerability disclosure program to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Enhance privacy compliance by providing detailed GDPR-related information and improving cookie consent mechanisms.
  4. Verify and correct domain registration details to resolve WHOIS lookup failures and improve domain legitimacy.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and update third-party libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern CMS platform (Multiscreensite) with a tech stack including jQuery 3.7.0, skrollr for parallax effects, and Snowplow for analytics. It uses CDN-hosted resources for fonts, scripts, and images, contributing to moderate performance. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design elements and basic accessibility features. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph data, and JSON-LD structured data. However, the lack of explicit security headers and limited privacy policy details indicate areas for technical improvement. The domain registration issues represent a technical risk that should be addressed to ensure operational continuity and trust.
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.
