Risk levelMedium

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

Jules Esick is a lifestyle and commercial photographer based in Berlin, presenting a professional portfolio website showcasing photographic works. The website is built using modern web technologies such as Next.js and Sanity CMS, indicating a contemporary digital infrastructure. The site includes minimal user tracking via plausible.io analytics, reflecting a privacy-conscious approach, although no explicit privacy or cookie policies are present. Security posture is limited due to the absence of detected security headers and unknown SSL configuration. The domain WHOIS data is unavailable, which raises concerns about domain registration legitimacy despite the active and professional website presence. Overall, the site is well-designed and user-friendly but lacks critical compliance and security disclosures.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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"

    • 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';…

  3. 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 business operates in the media sector, specifically photography services targeting lifestyle and commercial clients in Berlin. The website serves as a portfolio and marketing tool, likely supporting client acquisition and brand building. The absence of contact details and business registration information limits transparency. The use of Sanity CMS suggests a scalable content management approach. The business appears small-sized with a niche market focus. No partnerships or subsidiaries are evident from the data. The website's professional design and content quality support a positive market positioning within its niche.

Security posture

Security maturity is low to moderate. The website uses HTTPS (implied by URLs), but no security headers were detected in the provided data, which could expose the site to common web vulnerabilities. No forms or input fields were found, reducing attack surface but also limiting user interaction. The lack of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and other data protection regulations. No incident response or security contact information is provided. The domain's WHOIS data absence is a notable risk factor, potentially indicating privacy protection or registration issues. Recommendations include implementing security headers, publishing privacy and cookie policies, and clarifying domain registration details.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Verify and publish domain registration information to improve trustworthiness.
  4. Provide clear contact information including business email and phone number.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities and update accordingly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React-based framework (Next.js) with Sanity CMS for content management, enabling dynamic and responsive content delivery. The use of plausible.io analytics indicates a lightweight and privacy-focused tracking approach. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO meta tags present. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. No CMS or hosting provider details were explicitly found. The site lacks visible security headers and detailed technical security configurations. No forms or interactive elements were detected, limiting data collection but also reducing complexity.
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.
