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

Little's Funeral Service is a well-established family funeral director business based in Glasgow, operating since 1985. The company offers personalized funeral arrangements, pre-paid funeral plans, and operates multiple funeral parlours in the Glasgow area. Their market position is that of a trusted local service provider with a focus on compassionate care during difficult times. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including Yoast SEO, jQuery, and video integration, providing a good user experience and mobile optimization. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and bot protection via reCAPTCHA and Wordfence, but lacks some advanced security headers and published security policies. Privacy compliance is weak due to the absence of privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the domain registration is consistent and trustworthy, supporting the legitimacy of the business.

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. 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

  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

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Facebook, YouTube, Cloudflare, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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 targets families and individuals in Glasgow needing funeral services, leveraging a service-based business model with revenue from funeral arrangements and prepaid plans. Their competitive advantage lies in their long-standing presence and multiple physical locations. The website content is professional and relevant, supporting their market positioning. Social media integration on Facebook and Twitter enhances their outreach. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries from the data provided. Growth indicators include a modern website and active content updates. Strategic observations suggest the company could improve compliance and security transparency to enhance trust further.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and bot protection mechanisms in place. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of published incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies indicate gaps in security best practices. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. Compliance with GDPR is uncertain due to missing privacy and cookie policies. The security culture appears basic but functional, with room for improvement in transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance security posture.
  3. Add an incident response page and vulnerability disclosure policy to demonstrate security readiness.
  4. Ensure all forms have clear privacy notices and secure input validation.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and plugins to avoid vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a WordPress CMS with a modern front-end stack including jQuery, video.js, AOS animations, Swiper sliders, and glightbox for media display. SEO is enhanced via Yoast SEO plugin. Hosting appears stable with a reputable registrar. Performance is moderate with video content and multiple external resources. Mobile optimization is good, but accessibility features are basic. There is an opportunity to improve technical SEO and accessibility compliance. No critical technical debt or risks were identified, but security enhancements are recommended.
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.
