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

Lab73.digital is a digital agency operating since 2017, targeting clients seeking digital services. The website content is minimal, primarily showing a loading animation with no visible textual or navigational content in the provided HTML snapshot. The technical infrastructure includes Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for tracking, hosted likely via GoDaddy given the registrar and nameservers. The website lacks visible privacy, cookie, or terms of service policies and does not provide contact information, which limits transparency and compliance. Security posture is basic with no DNSSEC and no security headers detected, though HTTPS is presumed given the domain and Google Tag Manager usage. Overall, the site shows moderate technical implementation but poor content quality and privacy compliance.

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

8 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 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
    • 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

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

Lab73.digital appears to be a small digital agency focused on technology services. The domain age of 7 years supports a stable presence, though the lack of visible business information and contact details on the homepage limits trust and credibility. The business model is service-oriented, targeting businesses or individuals needing digital agency services. No partnerships or subsidiaries are evident from the data. The use of privacy protection for WHOIS is typical for small agencies. The absence of detailed content and policies suggests the website may be under development or relying on client-side rendering not captured in the snapshot.

Security posture

The security maturity level is basic. The domain lacks DNSSEC, and no security headers were detected in the provided data. The site uses HTTPS as inferred from Google Tag Manager scripts loaded over HTTPS, but no explicit SSL configuration details are provided. No forms or inputs were found, reducing attack surface, but also limiting user engagement. No incident response or security policy information is published. The use of Google Analytics and Tag Manager indicates moderate user tracking without visible consent mechanisms, raising privacy compliance concerns. Overall, the security posture is functional but lacks advanced protections and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Add clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for business and security incident reporting.
  3. Implement DNSSEC to enhance domain name system security.
  4. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  5. Improve website content visibility and navigation to enhance user experience and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses modern tracking technologies including Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics. The HTML includes SVG-based loading animations indicating a single-page application or dynamic content loading approach. However, the provided HTML snapshot lacks visible main content or navigation elements, suggesting reliance on client-side rendering or incomplete loading. Hosting is likely with GoDaddy based on registrar and nameservers. Mobile optimization is basic with some responsive CSS. Accessibility features are minimal. SEO optimization is limited due to lack of meta descriptions and structured data. Performance is moderate given the lightweight initial content but could be improved with better content delivery.
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.
