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"

    • 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 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

HazardCo operates a SaaS business model focused on health and safety compliance for the construction sector. Their competitive advantage lies in simplifying complex regulatory requirements with digital automation and expert support. Revenue likely derives from subscription plans, as indicated by free trial offers segmented by region (Australia, New Zealand, UK). The target customers are small to medium-sized construction businesses and tradies who need accessible safety management tools. The company leverages partnerships with app stores and integrates multiple marketing and analytics platforms to drive growth. The website content and testimonials reinforce a customer-centric approach and strong market trust. However, the lack of visible company registration or domain ownership data introduces some risk in business credibility assessment.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with enforced HTTPS, use of Google reCAPTCHA, and cookie consent management aligned with GDPR. No sensitive data leaks or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces defense-in-depth. There is no published security policy or incident response information, which limits transparency and preparedness perception. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a critical concern for trust and legitimacy. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved by adding security headers, publishing security policies, and clarifying domain registration details.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan on the website to improve transparency and user trust.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure domain legitimacy and reduce suspicion.
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Enhance contact information by including verified phone numbers and data protection officer contact details if applicable.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using WPBakery Page Builder and Yoast SEO plugin, indicating a modern and maintainable infrastructure. It uses CDN services (Cloudfront) for asset delivery, improving performance and availability. Analytics and marketing integrations include Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, Facebook Pixel, and Bing Ads, supporting data-driven marketing strategies. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features. No broken elements or errors were detected in the HTML content. The technical stack is robust and well-suited for the business needs, though security header implementation and domain registration transparency require attention.
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.
