Other · N/a

Low risk. 5 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view and SSL/TLS.

Security score

79/100

Risk levelLow

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

The website www.essdocs.com is currently inaccessible due to a CloudFront Web Application Firewall (WAF) blocking the request with a 403 error. This prevents any meaningful content or metadata extraction. The WHOIS lookup for the domain returned no match, indicating the domain may be unregistered, expired, or otherwise unavailable. Consequently, no business, contact, or security policy information could be retrieved or verified. The lack of accessible content and domain registration data severely limits the ability to assess the company's market position, services, or technical infrastructure. Security posture is weak due to the absence of accessible data and lack of visible security headers or HTTPS confirmation. Overall, the site presents a high risk due to inaccessibility and lack of transparency.

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

5 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 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. 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

Due to the absence of accessible website content and WHOIS data, no reliable business intelligence can be derived. There is no evidence of company information, market positioning, or partnerships. The domain's unregistered or expired status raises concerns about the legitimacy and operational status of the business behind the domain.

Security posture

The security posture cannot be fully assessed due to the blocked content. The presence of a CloudFront WAF blocking access suggests some level of security control, but the lack of accessible security headers, HTTPS confirmation, or privacy policies indicates poor security maturity. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is available. The domain's WHOIS data absence further undermines trust and security credibility.

Recommendations

  1. Verify domain registration status and renew or register the domain if necessary.
  2. Resolve CloudFront WAF configuration to allow legitimate traffic and ensure website accessibility.
  3. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate to secure communications.
  4. Publish comprehensive privacy, cookie, and terms of service policies to comply with regulations.
  5. Provide clear contact and business information to improve transparency and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is currently blocked by AWS CloudFront WAF, returning a 403 error with no accessible HTML content beyond the error message. No metadata, scripts, or technologies could be detected. The domain WHOIS query returned no data, indicating possible non-registration or expiration. The lack of accessible content and metadata prevents assessment of the technology stack, CMS, hosting provider, or performance characteristics. The site requires configuration fixes to restore accessibility and enable further technical evaluation.
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.
