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

Doorstore (Wirral) Ltd is a small, family-run business specializing in the supply and installation of wooden, composite, and UPVC doors and windows in the Wirral and Chester areas. The company positions itself as a local leader with over 30 years of experience, targeting homeowners and property owners seeking quality door and window solutions. The website reflects this with clear service descriptions and contact information. Technically, the site is built on WordPress using common plugins such as Contact Form 7 and Google reCAPTCHA, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. However, the Google Analytics plugin is present but not configured, suggesting incomplete analytics implementation. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and reCAPTCHA on forms, but lacks advanced security headers and explicit security policies. The WHOIS data is unavailable due to domain registration errors, which raises some concerns about domain legitimacy but does not negate the professional presentation and business consistency observed. Overall, the website is functional and trustworthy but could benefit from enhanced security and privacy compliance measures.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

  3. 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"

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 company operates in the retail sector focused on home improvement products, specifically doors and windows. Its business model combines product supply with installation services, catering primarily to local residential customers. The presence of physical addresses and multiple contact channels supports a transparent customer engagement approach. The website's SEO and content quality suggest an intent to attract organic traffic within its geographic market. The incomplete social media URLs and unconfigured analytics indicate areas for digital marketing improvement. No partnerships or subsidiaries are evident from the data. The company registration number and physical addresses add credibility, though the domain registration anomaly warrants monitoring.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enforced and Google reCAPTCHA protecting the contact form. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security reduces defense-in-depth. There is no visible security or incident response policy, and no dedicated security contact channels. The contact form uses standard validation but could be enhanced to prevent spam and injection attacks. The lack of GDPR compliance indicators and cookie consent mechanisms suggests potential compliance gaps. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but requires improvements to meet best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish clear security and incident response policies on the website, including dedicated contact channels for security issues.
  3. Configure and activate Google Analytics properly to enable effective traffic and behavior analysis.
  4. Add explicit GDPR compliance measures such as a cookie consent banner and detailed privacy policy disclosures.
  5. Verify and correct WHOIS domain registration details to ensure domain legitimacy and reduce trust concerns.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a standard set of plugins for contact forms, image galleries, and navigation menus. It uses jQuery and other JavaScript libraries for UI enhancements. The site loads external resources such as Google Fonts and Google reCAPTCHA scripts. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected, but mobile optimization is basic and could be improved for better user experience. SEO is supported by meta tags and Open Graph data, though structured data like JSON-LD is absent. The site lacks advanced accessibility features but provides basic semantic HTML structure. Technical debt appears low but modernization opportunities exist, especially in analytics and security configurations.
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.
