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

Joss Services is a 100% Indigenous owned and operated company specializing in security, construction, and commercial cleaning services primarily serving the Sydney Metro area. The company presents itself as a niche service provider with certifications such as FACCI ASSURED and membership in Supply Nation, indicating a commitment to quality and Indigenous business standards. The website is built on the Squarespace platform, featuring a professional design with clear navigation and mobile responsiveness. However, the absence of privacy and cookie policies, as well as incomplete WHOIS data, limits the overall trust and compliance posture. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS but lacks security headers and formal security policies. Contact information is clearly provided, enhancing business credibility. Overall, the website reflects a legitimate small business with room for improvement in privacy compliance and security best practices.

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 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

    • 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

The company targets commercial clients in Sydney requiring construction, security, and cleaning services. Its Indigenous ownership and certifications provide a competitive advantage in markets valuing diversity and compliance. The business model is service-oriented, with a focus on specialized offerings such as mobile patrols, antiviral cleaning, and construction services. The website's integration with social media platforms supports community engagement and marketing efforts. The lack of detailed business registration information and incomplete WHOIS data suggest a need for improved transparency. No evidence of partnerships beyond community initiatives was found.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS, which is a fundamental security requirement. However, it lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options, which could mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No forms or input fields were detected, reducing attack surface but also limiting user interaction. The absence of a privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism indicates non-compliance with GDPR and similar regulations. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which could hinder timely security issue resolution. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved with standard best practices and compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with consent mechanisms to improve compliance.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance security posture.
  3. Provide clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure contacts to improve security transparency and readiness.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to prevent vulnerabilities and ensure performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Squarespace, leveraging modern web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. It uses Typekit for font management and includes multiple compressed JavaScript bundles for performance. The site is mobile responsive and loads images with appropriate srcset attributes for different screen sizes. Hosting and CMS are managed by Squarespace, which provides a stable and secure infrastructure. Performance is moderate with room for optimization, especially in accessibility and SEO. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, indicating minimal user tracking. The site lacks advanced frameworks or custom backend technologies, reflecting a straightforward implementation suitable for a small business.
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.
