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

Harrison Lane is a New Zealand-based construction company specializing in luxury country homes, equestrian facilities, and rural property development primarily serving the Auckland and Waikato regions. The company emphasizes end-to-end project management, offering services from design through completion, with a focus on quality craftsmanship and award-winning builds. Their market position is that of a trusted, award-winning builder with a niche in lifestyle and equestrian construction. Technically, the website is built on the RocketSpark CMS platform and utilizes a range of modern web technologies including jQuery, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Hotjar for analytics and user behavior tracking. The site is mobile-optimized and presents a professional design with clear navigation, although accessibility features are basic. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and includes standard tracking scripts but lacks visible security headers and explicit privacy or cookie policies, which are important for compliance and user trust. No WHOIS data was found for the domain, which raises concerns about domain registration legitimacy and transparency. No forms or email contacts were found, limiting direct communication channels. Overall, the website presents a professional and trustworthy business front but would benefit from improved transparency in privacy and security policies, enhanced security headers, and verification of domain registration details to strengthen trust and compliance.

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.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Harrison Lane operates in the real estate and construction sector, focusing on high-end country homes and equestrian facilities. Their business model centers on providing comprehensive construction services with project management to reduce client burden. The company targets affluent homeowners and lifestyle property developers in New Zealand's Auckland and Waikato regions. Their award-winning status and Master Builders membership provide competitive advantages. The website content and marketing tools indicate a mature digital presence, though the lack of WHOIS data and privacy policies suggests areas for operational improvement. No clear partnerships or subsidiaries were identified from the data.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data detected. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. The use of outdated jQuery version 1.7.2 may expose the site to known vulnerabilities. Privacy and cookie policies are missing, which is a compliance gap under GDPR and similar regulations. No incident response or security contact information is provided, limiting the ability to report or respond to security issues. Overall, the security maturity is basic and requires enhancements to meet best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear consent mechanisms to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Add and configure essential security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection.
  3. Upgrade JavaScript libraries, especially jQuery, to current secure versions to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Verify and publish domain WHOIS information or ensure domain registration is valid and transparent.
  5. Provide clear security incident response contact details and consider a vulnerability disclosure policy.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the RocketSpark CMS platform, leveraging jQuery 1.7.2 and modern analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Hotjar. The site loads resources over HTTPS, indicating secure transport. The design is responsive and mobile-friendly with good SEO meta tags. However, the use of an outdated jQuery version and lack of security headers indicate technical debt and potential security risks. Performance is moderate, with opportunities for optimization in loading speed and accessibility improvements. The absence of forms limits data collection but also reduces attack surface. Overall, the technical infrastructure is functional but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
