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

Huntswood, a ResultsCX company, is a professional B2B service provider specializing in advisory, outsourcing, recruitment, and comprehensive complaints management solutions for regulated industries, particularly in finance and motor finance sectors. The company positions itself as a leader in delivering customer service excellence and compliance frameworks, leveraging deep expertise and intelligent technology. The website reflects a mature digital presence with modern design and clear business messaging, targeting enterprises requiring regulatory compliance and operational improvements. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with Elementor and integrates multiple advanced plugins and analytics tools, indicating a well-maintained infrastructure. Security posture is strong with HTTPS, security headers, and cookie consent mechanisms, though the absence of a public security policy and incident response details suggests room for improvement. The WHOIS data is notably missing, which slightly detracts from trust but is mitigated by the professional branding and parent company association. Overall, Huntswood presents a credible and professional online presence suitable for its market niche.

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

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

  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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

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

Business profile

Huntswood operates in the finance and compliance advisory sector, offering end-to-end complaints management and operational outsourcing services. Its affiliation with ResultsCX enhances its market credibility and reach. The business model focuses on B2B engagements with regulated industries, leveraging technology and human oversight to deliver scalable solutions. The company targets financial institutions and enterprises needing regulatory compliance and customer service excellence. The website's integration with marketing and analytics tools like Google Analytics, LinkedIn Insight, and Zoho Pagesense indicates a data-driven approach to customer engagement and lead generation. The presence of multiple social media channels and a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism reflects a mature marketing and compliance strategy. The lack of visible certifications or security policies suggests potential areas for strategic enhancement to boost client confidence further.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with good SSL configuration and implements several security headers, including HSTS, CSP (partial), X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy, which collectively enhance its security posture. Cookie consent is managed via Cookiebot, ensuring GDPR compliance and user privacy. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contact, or vulnerability disclosure page limits transparency and preparedness perception. The WHOIS data absence raises minor concerns about domain registration transparency. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be improved by publishing formal security and incident response documentation and enhancing CSP coverage.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance frameworks.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information or a dedicated security contact email.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance Content-Security-Policy headers to comprehensively cover all external resources and scripts.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress 7.0 platform using Elementor 4.1.1 for page building, supported by a suite of plugins including Jet Engine, Jet Menu, Jet Popup, and Nextend Smart Slider 3 Pro. It integrates advanced animation libraries like GSAP and tracking tools such as Google Tag Manager, Cookiebot, and Zoho Pagesense. The site demonstrates good mobile responsiveness and accessibility features, with optimized CSS and JavaScript loading strategies. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by the number of plugins and external scripts. The technical infrastructure is robust for a medium-sized enterprise website but could benefit from performance tuning and enhanced security header configurations. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified but Cloudflare services appear to be in use for CDN and security.
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.
