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

Leeds Bacon Company is a medium-sized manufacturing and retail business based in Bramley, Yorkshire, specializing in the preparation and supply of cured bacon and meat products. Established in 1977, it positions itself as one of the largest meat producers in Yorkshire, targeting local businesses and consumers. The website is built on the Wix platform, leveraging Wix's Thunderbolt framework and standard JavaScript libraries, with moderate performance and good mobile optimization. The site provides clear contact information and business details but lacks privacy and cookie policies, which are important for compliance and user trust. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS and error monitoring via Sentry, but security headers and incident response information are absent, representing areas for improvement. The WHOIS data query failed due to an invalid domain format, which raises concerns about domain registration consistency but does not directly impact the legitimacy of the business as presented on the website.

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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 28 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography
      • NIST SC-17: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-17: Public Key Infrastructure Certificates

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  3. 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"

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 operates in the manufacturing sector with a focus on meat production and retail supply, serving the Yorkshire region. Its business model involves both producing and preparing bacon products ready for immediate use, indicating vertical integration. The website content and structured data reinforce its local business identity. The absence of social media links and limited marketing tools suggest a traditional or localized marketing approach. The company appears to maintain a consistent brand image and provides essential contact details, supporting credibility. However, the lack of privacy and cookie policies may limit its appeal to privacy-conscious customers and partners.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and includes Sentry for error monitoring, indicating a baseline security awareness. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are provided, which could hinder timely security issue reporting and resolution. The site does not implement cookie consent mechanisms, which is a compliance gap under GDPR. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by adopting best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with user consent mechanisms to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add essential security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options) to enhance web security.
  3. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact information to improve security transparency.
  4. Verify and correct domain registration details to ensure WHOIS data consistency and improve trustworthiness.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and libraries.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Wix platform using the Thunderbolt framework, with standard polyfills for legacy browser support and Sentry for error monitoring. The hosting is managed by Wix, which provides HTTPS by default. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. SEO is basic with meta tags and structured data but lacks advanced optimization. Accessibility is basic, with some focus ring styles but no advanced ARIA roles or landmarks detected. The site uses multiple external domains for static content delivery, typical for Wix-hosted sites. There is no evidence of custom backend or advanced technical infrastructure.
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.
