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

Gravity Works is a small web agency specializing in custom website and mobile app development, offering tailored software solutions to businesses seeking to enhance their web presence. The company has been established since 2009, indicating a mature presence in the technology sector. The website is built using the Hugo static site generator, indicating a modern and performance-oriented technical infrastructure. Hosting and DNS services are managed via Cloudflare, providing reliable and secure delivery. The site integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking purposes, reflecting a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enabled and domain registration protections in place; however, the absence of security headers and explicit privacy or cookie policies indicates room for improvement in compliance and security best practices. Overall, the website presents a professional image but lacks some critical compliance and security disclosures, which should be addressed to enhance trust and regulatory adherence.

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

8 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"

    • 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';…

  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

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.

Business context

Business profile

Gravity Works operates as a niche web and mobile development agency targeting businesses that require custom digital solutions. Their business model is service-oriented, focusing on bespoke software development rather than off-the-shelf products. The market position is that of a specialized provider with a consistent brand presence and a clear value proposition. The company leverages modern web technologies and maintains a digital footprint through social media channels such as Twitter and Facebook. There is no evidence of parent or subsidiary companies, suggesting independent operation. The lack of visible certifications or trust badges may limit competitive advantage in highly regulated or security-conscious markets. The use of Google Tag Manager indicates an interest in marketing analytics and user behavior insights, supporting growth and customer engagement strategies.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring encrypted communications. Domain registration includes multiple client protection statuses, reducing risks of unauthorized domain transfers or deletions. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security reduces defense-in-depth. No explicit incident response or security policies are published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are present, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. The use of third-party scripts like Google Tag Manager introduces potential tracking and privacy concerns. Overall, the security posture is moderate but would benefit from enhanced header configurations, published policies, and incident response contact information.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to improve security posture.
  3. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Provide explicit contact information including emails and phone numbers for general and security-related inquiries.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using the Hugo static site generator, which supports fast loading times and good performance. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, providing CDN and security benefits. The site includes Google Tag Manager for analytics, indicating integration with marketing tools. The HTML content is well-structured with appropriate meta tags for SEO and social media sharing (Open Graph and Twitter cards). Mobile optimization is good, and accessibility features are basic but present. No CMS or dynamic backend detected, reducing attack surface but limiting content management flexibility. Performance is moderate, likely benefiting from static site advantages but could be improved with further optimization. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and suitable for a small web agency, with opportunities to enhance security and compliance features.
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.
