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. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Light Project operates in the energy sector specializing in architectural lighting solutions. Their business model centers on design-to-supply services targeting architects, engineers, and construction professionals. The company has established a strong partnership ecosystem with multiple lighting manufacturers and Australian Made licensing, enhancing their competitive advantage. The presence of multiple offices in Australia and New Zealand indicates regional growth and market penetration. Their digital marketing leverages social media and SEO effectively, supporting brand visibility and lead generation. The company appears medium-sized with a focused niche market and a history dating back to 2008, indicating stability and experience.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and spam protection via Google reCAPTCHA. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap that could expose the site to certain web attacks. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, which limits transparency and preparedness communication. Privacy compliance is partial; while a privacy policy exists, cookie consent mechanisms are missing, which may pose GDPR compliance risks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found, indicating good operational security hygiene. Overall, the security posture is good but can be improved with additional controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to avoid vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance privacy compliance by reviewing data collection and retention policies and communicating them clearly to users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using a combination of modern front-end technologies such as Tailwind CSS, Bootstrap 4.3.1, jQuery, and Smart Slider 3 for interactive content. SEO is optimized with Yoast SEO plugin and structured data (JSON-LD) is implemented for rich search results. The site loads moderately fast and is mobile optimized with responsive design. Accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA labels are present. The use of Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics indicates a mature approach to analytics. However, the lack of security headers and cookie consent mechanisms indicates some technical debt in security and privacy compliance areas. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified from the content.
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.
