Risk levelMedium

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

EBM Electrical services Ltd is a small local business based in England providing electrical services. The website is built on the Wix platform and presents basic business information including contact phone number and postal address. The site lacks comprehensive privacy, cookie, and terms of service policies, which limits its compliance posture. Technically, the site uses standard Wix scripts and styles with moderate mobile optimization and basic SEO features. Security posture is limited with no detected security headers or incident response contacts. The domain WHOIS data is missing or unregistered, which raises concerns about domain legitimacy and trustworthiness. Overall, the website serves its basic business purpose but requires improvements in security, compliance, and domain registration transparency.

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. 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

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: LinkedIn

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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 energy sector as an electrical services provider targeting local customers. The business model is service-oriented with a focus on local market presence. The website content is minimal and primarily informational. There is no evidence of partnerships, certifications, or advanced marketing tools. The lack of WHOIS data and privacy policies suggests limited digital maturity and potential risks in business credibility. Growth indicators and strategic partnerships are not evident from the website content.

Security posture

The website currently exhibits a low security maturity level. There are no security headers detected, no HTTPS enforcement details available, and no incident response or vulnerability disclosure information. The absence of privacy and cookie policies further indicates compliance gaps. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The domain registration status is unclear, which is a significant security and trust concern. The site would benefit from implementing security best practices, including HTTPS enforcement, security headers, and clear incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Register the domain properly and ensure WHOIS data is accurate and publicly available to improve trust.
  2. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to enhance compliance with GDPR and other regulations.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve security posture.
  4. Enable HTTPS with a strong SSL configuration and enforce HTTPS site-wide.
  5. Provide clear contact information for incident response and security reporting to improve transparency and readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Wix platform using standard Wix scripts and CSS. It uses JSON-LD structured data for local business information. The site shows moderate performance and good mobile optimization but lacks advanced SEO and accessibility features. No analytics or third-party tracking services were detected beyond Wix's standard scripts. The technical stack is modern but basic, with opportunities for improvement in security and compliance-related technical implementations.
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.
