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

4 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 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

  3. 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

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

Kopykat operates in the printing services sector, targeting local businesses, schools, bars, and restaurants in London. Their business model focuses on providing fast turnaround print jobs with a variety of finishing options and direct mail services. The company leverages its long-standing market presence and environmental certifications as competitive advantages. Payment processing is facilitated through PayPal, indicating an accessible and customer-friendly approach. The company maintains active social media channels to engage with customers and promote services. Growth indicators include a diverse service offering and a focus on environmentally friendly practices. No parent or subsidiary companies were identified, suggesting an independent operation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the absence of certain security headers like HSTS and CSP indicates room for improvement. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are present, which could be a gap in security readiness. The use of third-party scripts such as Google Analytics and YouTube embeds is standard but requires ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. Privacy compliance is basic, with GDPR considerations addressed through a privacy policy but lacking explicit cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small business but would benefit from enhanced security policies and incident response planning.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) header to enforce HTTPS and protect against protocol downgrade attacks.
  2. Add a Content Security Policy (CSP) header to mitigate cross-site scripting (XSS) and other code injection attacks.
  3. Establish and publish an incident response policy and provide dedicated security contact channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ emails).
  4. Enhance cookie consent mechanisms to comply fully with GDPR and improve user privacy transparency.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and dependencies to minimize security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on Squarespace, a reputable platform providing managed hosting and CMS capabilities. It uses modern web technologies including asynchronous JavaScript loading, Typekit fonts, and embedded multimedia content from YouTube. Performance is moderate with some optimization possible in image loading and script management. The site is mobile responsive and accessible at a basic level, with room for improvement in accessibility features. SEO is supported through proper meta tags and Open Graph data. No critical technical debt or outdated technologies were detected, indicating a well-maintained digital infrastructure suitable for the business scale.
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.
