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

  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

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  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"

    • 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 business operates in the hospitality sector, focusing on niche organic farm vacations with a strong family orientation. Its market position is regional and specialized, leveraging natural beauty and organic farming as unique selling points. The business model centers on holiday apartment rentals combined with farm experiences and local tourism. The website content and structure support this model well, with clear service descriptions, testimonials, and booking links. There is no evidence of large-scale marketing or analytics, indicating a small to medium-sized operation. The absence of privacy protection in WHOIS and consistent registrant data support legitimacy. The company maintains a direct relationship with customers via contact forms and phone.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and a cookie consent mechanism, indicating baseline security and privacy awareness. However, it lacks explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and advanced HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure information is present. The site does not expose sensitive data or use vulnerable libraries visibly. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be improved by implementing formal security policies, incident response information, and enhanced HTTP headers to mitigate common web threats.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a security.txt file and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
  2. Add advanced HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy to strengthen protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance measures.
  4. Enhance accessibility features and conduct performance optimizations to improve user experience and SEO.
  5. Consider integrating analytics with privacy-compliant configurations to gain insights into user behavior and improve marketing effectiveness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using version 5.8.12, with common plugins such as WPBakery Page Builder and Slider Revolution for content management and presentation. The tech stack includes jQuery, Bootstrap, and Font Awesome for UI components. The site uses Google Translate for multilingual support and Contact Form 7 for user inquiries. Performance is moderate with some heavy images and scripts but generally responsive design. No major technical debt or deprecated libraries detected. Hosting provider details are not explicit. The site lacks some modern security headers and formal security configurations, representing a technical risk area. Overall, the infrastructure is typical for a small hospitality business website with room for modernization and security hardening.
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.
