63/100

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

Hollandesigns Grafische vormgeving Hilversum is a small, locally focused graphic design agency offering a broad range of creative services including logo design, corporate identity, responsive websites, brochures, and advertising solutions. The company targets businesses and freelancers primarily in the Gooi and Amsterdam regions, emphasizing personalized and creative design collaborations. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with clear service descriptions and accessible contact information. Technically, the website uses legacy technologies such as jQuery and Nivo Slider, with Google Fonts and Google Analytics integrated. While the site is functional and moderately optimized for mobile, there are some inefficiencies such as multiple redundant analytics script inclusions and suspicious external scripts from an uncommon domain, which may pose privacy or security concerns. The site lacks advanced security headers and a cookie consent mechanism, which are important for GDPR compliance. From a security perspective, the site appears to use HTTPS and does not expose sensitive data, but the presence of repeated hidden iframes and external scripts from 3001.scriptcdn.net warrants further investigation. No formal security policies or incident response contacts are provided. The WHOIS data is consistent and transparent, supporting the legitimacy of the business. Overall, the website is moderately secure but could benefit from improved security practices and privacy compliance. Strategically, the company should focus on enhancing its security posture by removing suspicious scripts, implementing security headers, and adding cookie consent mechanisms. Improving technical modernization and performance optimization would also enhance user experience and trust. Maintaining clear and accessible business and privacy information supports credibility and compliance.

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Hollandesigns operates as a small, independent graphic design agency with a clear focus on creative branding and design services for local businesses and freelancers. Its competitive advantage lies in personalized service and a broad portfolio of design outputs from logos to corporate brochures and digital media. The business model is service-based, relying on client projects and freelance engagements. The presence of a LinkedIn profile and formal registration details indicates a professional approach. Growth indicators are limited but the company maintains a consistent online presence. The partnership ecosystem is minimal with no identified partners or subsidiaries. Strategic observations suggest a stable small business with opportunities to enhance digital maturity and security to better compete in the evolving digital design market.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is basic. The website uses HTTPS but lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options. The repeated inclusion of Google Analytics scripts and multiple hidden iframes from an uncommon external domain (3001.scriptcdn.net) raise concerns about potential privacy risks or vulnerabilities. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, and no security policy is published. GDPR compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism. The absence of a data protection officer contact and security certifications indicates limited formal security governance. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small business but requires improvements to mitigate risks and enhance compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Remove redundant Google Analytics script inclusions to optimize performance and reduce unnecessary tracking.
  2. Investigate and validate the safety and necessity of scripts and hidden iframes loaded from 3001.scriptcdn.net; remove if not essential or suspicious.
  3. Implement standard security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to harden the website against common attacks.
  4. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply with GDPR requirements and improve user privacy transparency.
  5. Publish a security policy and provide incident response contact information to enhance trust and preparedness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built with traditional web technologies including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, leveraging jQuery and the Nivo Slider plugin for interactive elements. Google Fonts and Google Analytics are integrated for typography and analytics respectively. The site appears to be custom-built or uses a lightweight CMS without identifiable frameworks. Performance is moderate with some inefficiencies due to redundant script loading. Mobile optimization is basic with viewport meta tags and responsive elements but could be improved. Accessibility features are minimal. SEO is basic with meta description and keywords but lacks structured data such as JSON-LD or Open Graph tags. The hosting provider is not identified from the data. Technical debt is indicated by legacy libraries and repeated scripts. Modernization opportunities include updating libraries, optimizing scripts, and enhancing SEO 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.
