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

Global LT is a medium-sized education company specializing in instructor-led language and cultural training services targeted at corporations and governments worldwide. The company offers a comprehensive suite of services including language training, translation, interpretation, and destination services, supported by a technology-driven platform. The website is professionally designed, well-branded, and provides clear navigation and rich content relevant to its business domain. Technically, the site is built on HubSpot CMS and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for marketing and analytics purposes. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support is a significant security concern. Security headers are partially implemented, but critical TLS protocols and certificate transparency are missing, exposing the site to potential risks. Privacy compliance is moderate, with a privacy policy present but lacking a cookie consent mechanism despite tracking scripts. Contact information is clearly provided, enhancing business credibility. Overall, the site demonstrates strong business presence and digital maturity but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and enhance trust.

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

4 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 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.

    • 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

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

Global LT holds a strong market position as a preferred provider of language and cultural training for enterprises and governments. Its business model focuses on delivering customized, instructor-led training supplemented by technology solutions. The company targets corporate clients and government agencies globally, leveraging a multi-channel marketing approach including social media and content marketing. The website content and client feedback statistics indicate a customer-centric approach with high satisfaction and confidence levels. The company maintains a medium size with a professional online presence but lacks publicly disclosed certifications or security policies. The partnership ecosystem is not explicitly detailed, and no related or subsidiary domains were identified. The business appears legitimate and consistent with its domain registration data.

Security posture

The current security posture of the website is weak due to the lack of a valid SSL certificate and absence of HTTPS, which is critical for protecting data in transit. While some security headers like HSTS and Content Security Policy are present, the site does not support modern TLS protocols or OCSP stapling, reducing its resilience against common attacks. No incident response or security policy pages are published, and no dedicated security contact channels are provided. The use of secure cookies with HttpOnly and SameSite attributes is a positive aspect. Overall, the site is vulnerable to interception and lacks comprehensive security best practices, posing risks to user data and trust.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site immediately.
  2. Enable and configure modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3) and implement OCSP stapling for improved security and performance.
  3. Publish explicit security policies and incident response procedures, including dedicated security contact emails.
  4. Implement a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR and other privacy regulations to address tracking transparency.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to avoid vulnerabilities and improve overall security posture.

Notes

The website is hosted behind Cloudflare and built on the HubSpot CMS platform, utilizing modern web technologies such as jQuery, Lottie animations, and Micromodal for UI enhancements. Google Analytics 4 and Google Tag Manager are integrated for analytics and marketing. The site demonstrates good SEO practices with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance metrics are not explicitly provided but inferred as moderate due to the use of multiple external resources and animations. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design elements. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The lack of HTTPS and valid SSL certificate is a critical technical deficiency that undermines the otherwise modern infrastructure.
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.
