Risk levelHigh

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

Edginton Racing is a specialized small business with over 30 years of experience in motor racing, focusing on single seater racing car restoration, maintenance, and driver training. The company targets motor racing enthusiasts and drivers seeking expert services in the UK. Their website reflects a professional and consistent brand presence with clear service offerings and contact channels. Technically, the site is built on WordPress using the Divi theme and includes common plugins such as Gravity Forms and Modula Gallery. It employs Google Analytics for user tracking and has implemented cookie consent mechanisms, indicating good privacy compliance. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled but lacks advanced security headers and explicit incident response policies. The WHOIS data is unavailable due to domain naming rules errors, which impacts trustworthiness and domain legitimacy assessment. Overall, the website is accessible, well-structured, and safe for general audiences, but could benefit from enhanced security practices and WHOIS 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

6 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

  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  4. 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 a niche transportation sector, providing high-value restoration and maintenance services for historic and racing cars, along with driver coaching. Their market position is that of a trusted specialist with a long history, supported by a portfolio of notable racing cars and client testimonials. The business model is service-oriented, relying on expertise and networked parts suppliers. Contact information and policies are clearly presented, supporting customer trust. The website's use of WordPress and common plugins suggests a cost-effective digital presence, with room for technical modernization. No direct partnerships or subsidiaries were identified from the domain data. The company appears focused on quality and reputation within a specialized market segment.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses cookie consent banners, reflecting baseline security and privacy awareness. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options indicates potential exposure to common web vulnerabilities. No incident response or security policy information is provided, which could hinder rapid response to security events. The WHOIS data is incomplete, limiting domain trust verification. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended headers, publishing security policies, and ensuring plugin security updates.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to reduce vulnerability risks.
  4. Investigate and resolve WHOIS domain registration issues to improve domain legitimacy and trust.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct periodic security assessments to maintain compliance and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with the Divi theme and uses Gravity Forms for contact forms and Modula for gallery management. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are integrated for analytics and marketing. The site loads CSS and JS assets from its own domain and trusted external sources like Google Fonts. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization evident. Accessibility is basic but present. The site lacks advanced security headers and detailed hosting provider information. The WHOIS lookup failed due to domain naming rules, indicating a possible misconfiguration or use of a subdomain rather than a registered domain. Overall, the technical infrastructure is standard for a small business website but could benefit from security and performance enhancements.
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.
