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

it’s mee is a small visual communication agency based in Basel, Switzerland, specializing in conceptualizing and designing visual identities, exhibitions, websites, and publications. The website serves as a professional portfolio showcasing their projects primarily in the cultural and publication sectors. The company appears to be well-established with a domain age consistent with its founding date in 2017. The business targets clients seeking high-quality visual communication services in the local region. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using common libraries such as jQuery, Masonry.js, and MediaElement.js, with SEO optimization via the All in One SEO plugin. Hosting is provided by a German hosting provider. The site is mobile-optimized and performs moderately well, though accessibility features are basic. Analytics are handled by Matomo, indicating some privacy-conscious tracking. From a security perspective, HTTPS is enabled, but DNSSEC is not configured, and no security headers are detected, which are areas for improvement. There is no visible privacy or cookie policy, nor any incident response or security policy pages, indicating compliance gaps especially regarding GDPR. Contact information is clearly provided, but no forms are present on the homepage. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance and security hardening to improve its risk posture and user trust.

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

The company operates as a niche design agency focusing on visual communication for cultural institutions and publications. Its market position is local and specialized, with a portfolio that demonstrates expertise in identity design, exhibitions, and digital presence. The business model is service-based, targeting clients who require bespoke design solutions. There is no indication of large-scale operations or subsidiaries. The company leverages social media (Instagram) for brand presence. Growth indicators are not explicit but the website's portfolio suggests ongoing active projects. The absence of privacy and security policies may impact client trust and regulatory compliance.

Security posture

The current security maturity is basic. HTTPS is implemented, which is mandatory, but DNSSEC is not enabled, leaving DNS queries vulnerable to spoofing. The lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are published, which limits transparency and preparedness. The use of Matomo analytics suggests some privacy awareness, but the absence of cookie consent mechanisms is a compliance risk under GDPR. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is functional but requires improvements to meet modern standards and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing attacks.
  2. Implement standard security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details and implement a cookie consent mechanism.
  4. Develop and publish an incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to minimize vulnerabilities and maintain security hygiene.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8 with a child theme and uses several JavaScript libraries including jQuery, Masonry.js for layout, MediaElement.js for media playback, and FontAwesome for icons. SEO is managed via the All in One SEO plugin. Hosting appears to be on a German server (server-he.de). The site is mobile responsive with good navigation clarity and professional design. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts and images. Accessibility is basic but functional. No major technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and implement DNSSEC for better domain 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.
