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

Eston is a media production company specializing in filmmaking and digital content creation, offering services such as content production, film production, voice production, and creative direction. The company positions itself as an award-winning creative agency with a portfolio of over 5000 projects and multiple design awards, targeting media clients and creative professionals. The website is built on WordPress using the Eston theme and incorporates modern web technologies like Elementor, Bootstrap, and jQuery. The technical infrastructure is moderate in performance with good mobile optimization but lacks advanced security headers and DNSSEC. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled but shows minor issues such as visible WordPress debug notices and missing security headers. Privacy compliance is weak due to the absence of privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from improved security and privacy practices.

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. 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"

  2. 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

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

Eston operates in the media sector as a service provider focusing on film and content production. Its competitive advantage lies in its award-winning status and extensive project portfolio. The business model is service-oriented, targeting filmmakers, agencies, and content creators. Revenue streams likely come from production services and creative direction. The company maintains partnerships with theme providers like Themedox. Growth indicators include recent domain registration and active content updates. The partnership ecosystem includes theme and plugin providers but lacks visible third-party integrations for analytics or marketing.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security maturity level with HTTPS enabled but lacks DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options. The presence of a WordPress debug notice indicates some misconfiguration or development oversight. No incident response or security policy information is available, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are found. Data protection officer contact and GDPR compliance indicators are missing. The site uses secure forms via Contact Form 7 but lacks visible advanced security measures. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires improvements to meet best practices and compliance standards.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Resolve WordPress debug notices by adjusting theme/plugin code to load translations at the correct hook.
  3. Implement essential security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  5. Establish an incident response contact channel and consider publishing a security.txt file.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with Elementor page builder and uses Bootstrap for responsive design. It employs common JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Owl Carousel for UI components. The site loads multiple CSS and JS assets from its own domain and the theme provider Themedox. Performance is moderate with some optimization for mobile devices. Accessibility features are basic, and SEO optimization is minimal with standard meta tags but no Open Graph or JSON-LD structured data detected. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified beyond the registrar and DNS parking service. There is minor technical debt indicated by visible debug notices and lack of security headers.
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.
