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

2 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.

    • 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.

    • 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

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 targets professional chefs and foodservice businesses, positioning itself as a quality-focused regional supplier with a comprehensive product range including in-house butchery and fishmongery. The business model centers on wholesale distribution with value-added services like next day delivery and online ordering. The presence of multiple depots and a dedicated online platform suggests a scalable operation with growth potential. Partnerships with MyElite for online ordering and identity management indicate a strategic ecosystem supporting customer engagement. The website content and social media presence reinforce brand credibility and market positioning within the retail foodservice sector.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS and service worker registration. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and lack of published security policies or incident response contacts represent areas for improvement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. Tracking and analytics are implemented responsibly with privacy policies in place. The lack of a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure mechanism limits transparency for security researchers. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with additional headers and formal security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and responsible reporting.
  4. Review and optimize analytics and tracking to ensure minimal privacy impact and compliance.
  5. Verify and correct WHOIS domain registration details to ensure accurate domain ownership information.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern tech stack with JavaScript frameworks, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo for marketing automation, and Amazon Cloudfront CDN for content delivery. It uses service workers for offline support and performance optimization. The CMS appears to be Duda, inferred from internal scripts and CDN references. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and uses web fonts from Typekit and Google Fonts. Performance is moderate with some room for improvement in loading speed and accessibility features. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. No forms were detected in the provided HTML, indicating limited direct data collection on the homepage.
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.
