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
5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
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
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"

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.

Business context
Business profile
The company operates in the home improvement sector, targeting residential and commercial customers in Hampshire and surrounding areas. Its business model focuses on providing high-quality carpentry and renovation services with a strong emphasis on craftsmanship and customer satisfaction. The presence of certifications such as Guild of Master Craftsmen and Trading Standards approval positions the company as a reputable local player. The website supports lead generation through a contact form with CAPTCHA and multiple contact channels. Marketing efforts include Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity for user behavior insights. The company maintains a blog to engage customers and enhance SEO. No evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries was found. The business appears stable with a clear focus on quality and customer trust.
Security posture
The website demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enabled and use of Google reCAPTCHA to protect contact forms from spam and abuse. Cookie consent is implemented with an opt-in mechanism, supporting privacy compliance. However, the absence of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency in security governance. Overall, the security measures are adequate for a small business website but could be enhanced to align with best practices and compliance requirements.
Recommendations
Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve transparency and compliance.
Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance protection against common web attacks.
Publish a security.txt file or incident response contact information to facilitate vulnerability reporting and incident management.
Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.

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.
