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

Jemstar Consulting is a small, Ireland-based independent Business Objects consulting firm specializing in BI solutions including universe design, report writing, dashboard creation, and system upgrades. The company leverages a strong background in accounting and ERP consulting to deliver tailored BI services primarily to business clients requiring contract-based expertise. The website is hosted on Google Sites and employs Google Analytics and Tag Manager for visitor tracking. While the site provides clear contact information and a cookie consent mechanism, it lacks formal privacy and terms of service policies, which are important for compliance and trust. Security posture is moderate with no evident vulnerabilities but limited security headers and no published security policies. Overall, the domain registration aligns well with the business claims, supporting legitimacy.

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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

  2. 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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

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 occupies a niche market as a specialized BI consultant with a focus on Business Objects and ERP-related BI implementations. Its consulting model targets businesses needing short-term contract expertise in BI and reporting solutions. The firm’s competitive advantage lies in its combined accounting and ERP experience, enabling comprehensive BI implementations. The website’s content is professional and relevant, though limited in scope. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries. The business model is straightforward consulting with no e-commerce or product sales. Growth indicators are not evident from the website alone.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS implied but not explicitly confirmed in the content. No advanced security headers were detected, and no incident response or security policies are published. The cookie consent banner indicates some privacy awareness, but the absence of a privacy policy and terms of service is a compliance gap. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The use of Google services for analytics and hosting provides a baseline of security but also introduces third-party tracking considerations. Overall, the security maturity is low to moderate, suitable for a small consulting website but requiring improvements for enhanced trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy detailing data collection, usage, and user rights to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add a terms of service page to clarify user and business obligations and limit liability.
  3. Implement and document a security policy including incident response contacts to enhance trust and preparedness.
  4. Configure and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  5. Review and optimize cookie consent mechanisms and tracking disclosures to align with privacy best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Google Sites, leveraging Google Fonts and Google APIs, with analytics via Google Analytics and Tag Manager. The technical stack is modern but basic, suitable for a small consulting business. Performance is moderate with no explicit speed optimizations noted. Mobile optimization is good due to Google Sites responsive design. Accessibility features are basic, with some ARIA roles present but no advanced accessibility enhancements. SEO is basic with meta tags and Open Graph data but no structured JSON-LD beyond minimal global data. The site lacks custom frameworks or CMS beyond Google Sites. Hosting is by Google, ensuring reliable uptime and security at the infrastructure level.
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.
