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

Algeco UK is a well-established provider of modular buildings, site accommodation, and shipping containers, serving a broad range of sectors including construction, education, healthcare, and commercial industries. The company positions itself as a market leader in the UK with extensive nationwide coverage and a large fleet. The website is professionally designed, mobile-optimized, and provides comprehensive information about products and services, supporting a B2B business model focused on rental and turnkey solutions. Technically, the website is built on Drupal 10 and integrates modern web technologies such as Google Tag Manager, HubSpot Analytics, and CookieYes for cookie consent management. The site demonstrates good SEO and accessibility practices, though performance is moderate. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS usage and cookie consent, but lacks visible security headers and explicit security policies. The WHOIS data for the exact domain queried is unavailable due to domain naming rules, indicating the domain is a subdomain rather than a registered domain itself. This is consistent with UK domain structures but reduces the ability to verify domain registration details. No privacy policy or terms of service pages were detected in the provided content, which is a gap in privacy compliance. Overall, the website presents a professional and trustworthy business front with room for improvement in security transparency and privacy documentation.

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. 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  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

Algeco UK operates in the modular building and site accommodation market, targeting organizations requiring flexible, temporary, or permanent space solutions. Their competitive advantage lies in their large fleet, nationwide service centers, and turnkey project management capabilities. The business model includes rental, sales, and full-service solutions, catering to sectors such as construction, education, healthcare, and infrastructure. The company has an international presence with partner sites in Australia and New Zealand, indicating a broad operational footprint. Growth indicators include a comprehensive product range and digital presence with modern marketing and analytics tools.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, indicating baseline security and privacy awareness. However, the absence of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options suggests potential areas for hardening. No security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms were found, which limits transparency and preparedness communication. The use of third-party analytics and tracking scripts requires ongoing monitoring to mitigate privacy risks. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be enhanced with additional policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve privacy compliance and user trust.
  2. Add security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to strengthen site security.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and preparedness.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure they comply with privacy and security standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries such as Slick Carousel and LazySizes for UI enhancements and performance optimization. It integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools including Google Tag Manager, HubSpot Analytics, and Infinity Tracking. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO metadata and structured navigation. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by multiple external scripts and large media assets. There is no explicit hosting provider information detected. Technical risks include reliance on third-party scripts without visible CSP headers and lack of security policy documentation.
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.
