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

DotPerformance Limited is a well-established full-service design, development, and content agency based in the Isle of Man, with over 20 years of experience. The company serves a broad range of clients on the island, providing comprehensive branding, website and mobile app development, content management, API integration, digital marketing, and media production services. Their market position is strong locally, supported by a portfolio of significant Isle of Man brands and a consistent, professional online presence. Technically, the website is built using modern web technologies including Bootstrap, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Google reCAPTCHA v3 for security. The site is mobile-optimized, fast-loading, and well-structured with good SEO practices. The use of asynchronous script loading and third-party APIs like Vimeo enhances user experience. However, explicit CMS or hosting provider details are not disclosed. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses reCAPTCHA to protect its contact form from spam. While no critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected, the absence of explicit security headers and incident response policies suggests room for improvement. Privacy and cookie policies are present and appear GDPR compliant, supporting good privacy practices. Overall, the website demonstrates a high level of professionalism, technical maturity, and business credibility with a low risk profile. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies, and maintaining regular security audits to sustain trust and compliance.

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

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

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

DotPerformance operates as an important entity within the technology and media sectors on the Isle of Man. Their business model focuses on providing end-to-end digital solutions including branding, web and app development, content creation, and digital marketing. The company targets local businesses and organizations seeking to enhance their digital presence and operational systems. Their competitive advantage lies in their long-standing local market presence, unique and bespoke work, and a highly qualified team. The company maintains a strong partnership ecosystem through social media and client collaborations but does not publicly list formal partners or subsidiaries. Growth indicators include a diverse service portfolio and a robust client showcase. The company’s operations reflect a medium-sized agency with consistent branding and high content quality.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and Google reCAPTCHA v3 integrated to mitigate spam and abuse on contact forms. No exposed credentials or sensitive data were found in the HTML content. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others reduces the overall security hardening. There is no publicly available incident response or security policy documentation, which could impact preparedness and transparency. GDPR compliance is supported by clear privacy and cookie policies. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found, indicating a potential gap in responsible vulnerability management. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved by adopting additional security best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy.
  2. Publish an incident response policy and provide clear contact channels for security issues (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email addresses).
  3. Develop and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency and trust by adding terms of service and security policy pages.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack leveraging HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, Bootstrap framework, and third-party services such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Vimeo for media content. The site uses asynchronous script loading to optimize performance and includes Google reCAPTCHA v3 for form security. The design is responsive and mobile-optimized, with good SEO metadata and Open Graph tags for social sharing. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or static site architecture. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Performance is fast with no broken elements detected. Opportunities exist to improve technical security by adding missing HTTP headers and formalizing security policies.
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.
