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

Fifosys is a London-based Managed Service Provider (MSP) specializing in managed IT services, cybersecurity, and digital transformation with over 20 years of experience. The company serves UK businesses with a focus on proactive IT management, cyber threat protection, and compliance, supported by industry certifications such as ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials Plus. Their market position is that of a trusted, established MSP with multiple regional offices and a strong client partnership approach. Technically, the website is built on Squarespace, leveraging modern web technologies including Google Tag Manager and reCAPTCHA for security and marketing. The site is mobile-optimized, uses HTTPS with HSTS, and includes cookie consent mechanisms, reflecting a moderate to good level of digital maturity. Security posture is strong with enforced HTTPS, security certifications, and best practices like cookie consent and reCAPTCHA. However, the absence of a privacy policy and terms of service pages, as well as missing WHOIS domain registration data, are notable gaps that reduce overall trust and compliance confidence. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy from a content and design perspective, but domain registration transparency and privacy compliance documentation should be improved to enhance credibility and reduce risk.

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

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

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

Fifosys operates as a specialized MSP targeting UK businesses requiring managed IT and cybersecurity services. Their competitive advantage lies in their long-standing experience, certifications, and tailored service offerings. The business model focuses on service contracts including managed services, co-managed IT support, and cybersecurity solutions. Revenue streams likely include recurring managed service fees and consulting. The company maintains a partnership ecosystem evidenced by key partners and client case studies. Growth indicators include active marketing, events, and digital content. The company emphasizes consistent communication and strategic IT partnerships, positioning itself as a reliable technology partner.

Security posture

Fifosys demonstrates a mature security posture with ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials Plus certifications, indicating adherence to recognized security frameworks. The website enforces HTTPS with HSTS and uses reCAPTCHA to protect forms. Cookie consent is implemented with opt-in/out options, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the lack of a published privacy policy and incident response contact information are gaps. No visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The absence of a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy limits transparency. Overall, the security culture appears strong but could benefit from enhanced documentation and incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add terms of service to clarify user and client agreements.
  3. Implement a security.txt file and vulnerability disclosure policy to enhance transparency.
  4. Provide clear incident response contact details for security issues.
  5. Enhance website accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance.

Notes

The website is built on the Squarespace platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries and integrations such as Google Tag Manager and reCAPTCHA. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization. The site uses HTTPS with HSTS, ensuring secure transport. Tracking and marketing tools are present but limited to reputable services. No deprecated or vulnerable libraries were detected. Technical debt appears low, but the site could improve SEO and accessibility features. Hosting is managed by Squarespace, providing reliable uptime and security. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs effectively with room for minor enhancements.
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.
