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

English for Business is a Brazilian company specializing in corporate English language training, targeting businesses and professionals seeking to improve their English communication skills in business contexts. Established in 2006, it has positioned itself as a trusted partner for companies requiring tailored English programs, workshops, and consulting services. The company emphasizes performance-driven learning with support for human resources departments and leadership development. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using Elementor and LiteSpeed Cache, integrating modern web technologies and analytics tools such as Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization, SEO practices, and a moderate performance profile, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS, includes standard security headers, and avoids exposing sensitive data. However, it lacks visible cookie consent mechanisms and published security or incident response policies, which are areas for improvement to enhance privacy compliance and user trust. Overall, the website presents a professional and trustworthy digital presence with strong business credibility, though it should address privacy compliance gaps and enhance transparency around security policies to further strengthen its risk posture.

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

8 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

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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

English for Business operates in the education sector, focusing exclusively on business English training for corporate clients. Its competitive advantage lies in customized programs aligned with client objectives and industry-specific needs, supported by experienced instructors and performance tracking dashboards. The company serves medium-sized to large enterprises across Brazil, leveraging a strong partnership ecosystem and a portfolio of notable corporate clients. Revenue streams include tailored training programs, workshops, proficiency mapping, and consulting services. The company’s strategic focus on leadership and HR collaboration positions it well for sustained growth in the corporate training market.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforcement and multiple security headers, reducing common web vulnerabilities. There is no evidence of exposed credentials or vulnerable libraries in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure mechanism limits transparency and preparedness. The lack of a cookie consent banner also indicates partial non-compliance with privacy regulations such as GDPR. Enhancing these areas would improve the overall security culture and compliance readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a visible cookie consent banner to comply with privacy laws and improve user trust.
  2. Publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response plan accessible from the website footer or dedicated page.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve inclusivity.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform with Elementor page builder and LiteSpeed Cache for performance optimization. It uses modern JavaScript libraries and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking. The site is mobile responsive and well-structured with proper meta tags and Open Graph data for SEO and social sharing. Performance is moderate, with opportunities to optimize image loading and script deferral further. The technical stack is current and supports scalability, though ongoing maintenance is required to keep dependencies secure and performant.
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.
