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

Let it Grow (Gardens) Limited is a small Scottish business specializing in landscape garden design, restoration, maintenance, construction, and planting services primarily serving the Kingussie and Highlands area. The company emphasizes professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail, targeting residential and commercial property owners in the local region. The website is built on the Squarespace platform, integrating Google Analytics and Tag Manager for visitor tracking. It features a clean, professional design with clear navigation and mobile optimization. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, but lacks advanced security headers and formal security policies. WHOIS data is unavailable, which slightly reduces trust but the business information on the site is consistent and credible. Overall, the site presents a trustworthy and professional local service provider with room for improvement in security and compliance documentation.

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.

  1. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Weak SPF Policy

      SPF record has permissive policy allowing any server to send email

      What to do: Use -all or ~all qualifier for better email security

  2. 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

  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"

    • 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';…

  4. 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

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 Real Estate sector focusing on garden and landscape services. Its market position is that of a local specialist with a strong emphasis on customer service and quality workmanship. The business model is service-oriented with direct customer engagement. The presence of VAT and company registration numbers indicates formal business operations. The Instagram social media presence supports marketing efforts. No evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries was found. The website content and structure support a positive user experience and effective communication of services.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring encrypted communication. However, it lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could mitigate certain web attacks. No incident response or security contact information is provided. Cookie consent is implemented, indicating some privacy awareness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The absence of WHOIS data is a concern but may be due to domain registration status or privacy protection. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced with additional headers and documented policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service page.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  3. Provide incident response contact information or security@ email address.
  4. Improve accessibility features to meet WCAG standards.
  5. Verify and update WHOIS registration data to improve domain trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on Squarespace, leveraging its CMS and hosting infrastructure. It uses modern web technologies including asynchronous loading of Google Analytics and Tag Manager scripts, and jQuery for UI interactions. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate, typical for Squarespace sites. There is no evidence of technical debt or deprecated libraries. Opportunities exist to enhance security headers and accessibility compliance to reduce risk and improve user experience.
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.
