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. 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

    • 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

  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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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 company positions itself as a strategic partner for brand development, offering services such as brand positioning, corporate design, motion design, and fundraising communication. Their client base includes medium-sized businesses and non-profits, indicating a focus on organizations seeking to strengthen their market presence through authentic branding. The business model revolves around consultancy and creative services, leveraging a team of over 40 professionals. The presence of client logos and references enhances credibility. The company maintains active social media profiles on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram, supporting marketing and client engagement efforts. No parent company or subsidiaries were identified, suggesting an independent operation. The website content and structure reflect a mature digital presence suitable for their market segment.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communication. Google Tag Manager is used with a consent mechanism, indicating awareness of privacy regulations. However, the absence of explicit privacy policy and terms of service pages is a compliance gap. No security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The site does not display incident response or security contact information, which is recommended for transparency and quick issue resolution. Overall, the security posture is moderate but can be enhanced by adding missing policies and security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page clearly linked in the website footer or main navigation.
  2. Add terms of service and security policy pages to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  3. Implement security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Provide explicit incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts, including Google Tag Manager, to mitigate tracking and security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and clean HTML5 structure with CSS3 styling and JavaScript for interactivity. Lottie animations enhance visual engagement without heavy performance penalties. Google Tag Manager is integrated for analytics and marketing tracking, with a consent mechanism indicating GDPR awareness. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive images and layout. No CMS or hosting provider details were explicitly detected from the HTML content. Performance appears moderate with video and animation content, but no major delays or errors were observed. Accessibility features are present but could be further improved with ARIA roles and landmarks. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph, and Twitter card metadata. Overall, the technical implementation is solid with room for incremental improvements in security and accessibility.
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.
