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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  2. 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 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';…

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 positions itself as a niche provider of precise and reliable design and digital communication services, targeting businesses that value quality and professionalism. The business model is service-oriented, focusing on design, UI/UX, and Joomla-based web solutions. The presence of multiple client references and an official partner relationship with SG Flensburg-Handewitt indicates a solid partnership ecosystem and market credibility. The company leverages email marketing for client engagement but does not appear to use extensive tracking or advertising networks, suggesting a privacy-conscious approach. Growth indicators include recent project updates and multilingual site capabilities.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and CSRF protection in place. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency and preparedness for security incidents. GDPR compliance is partially indicated by the presence of contact information but lacks formal privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Add explicit incident response and vulnerability disclosure information to enhance transparency.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and CMS components to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance marketing transparency by disclosing data collection and tracking practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Joomla CMS with YOOtheme Pro and UIkit, leveraging modern web technologies including deferred JavaScript loading and web components polyfills. The site is mobile optimized and accessible with good SEO practices evident from meta tags and structured data. Performance is moderate, with video and high-resolution images used in the hero section, which may impact load times. The technical infrastructure is stable with multiple DNS servers configured. No hosting provider details were identified from the data. Opportunities exist to improve performance by optimizing media assets and implementing advanced caching strategies.
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.
