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

eEnergy is a UK-based digital energy efficiency solutions provider focused on helping organizations eliminate energy waste and achieve Net Zero profitably. Their services include LED lighting upgrades, solar PV generation, EV charging infrastructure, energy analytics, and compliant financing options with no upfront costs. The company targets sectors such as education, healthcare, public sector, and commercial industries, positioning itself as a leading energy services provider with over 1,000 customers and numerous successful projects. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern SEO and analytics tools including Yoast SEO, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar, and CookieYes for cookie consent management. Hosting is on AWS with Cloudflare Bot Management enhancing security. The site is fast, mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced, multiple security headers, secure session management, and bot protection. However, the site lacks a publicly available security policy, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms, which are recommended for enhanced trust and compliance. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and compliant with GDPR and cookie regulations. The business demonstrates credibility through certifications, customer testimonials, and media presence. Strategic recommendations include publishing formal security and incident response policies, adding vulnerability disclosure information, and providing direct contact details for data protection officers or security teams.

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. 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. 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

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

eEnergy operates in the energy sector with a focus on digital energy efficiency and decarbonisation. Their competitive advantage lies in offering no upfront cost solutions that combine technology and financing to make Net Zero achievable and profitable. Revenue streams likely include service contracts for energy reduction, solar installations, EV charging, and analytics subscriptions. The target customers are medium to large organizations in education, healthcare, public, and commercial sectors. The company has a strong partnership ecosystem evidenced by certifications and media endorsements. Growth indicators include over 1,200 completed projects and significant investment in energy efficiency. The company emphasizes trust, sustainability, and innovation in its market approach.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, use of Cloudflare Bot Management, secure cookies, and comprehensive cookie consent management. Security headers are present, and no exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contact information, and vulnerability disclosure program indicates room for improvement in transparency and readiness. Compliance with GDPR is evident through cookie consent and privacy policy. The security culture appears proactive but could benefit from formal documentation and communication of security practices.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Add explicit contact information for the Data Protection Officer or privacy lead to enhance GDPR compliance.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

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.
