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

Logistics People is a UK-based logistics recruitment provider that has recently transferred its business operations to Staffline, the UK's largest recruitment solutions partner. The website currently serves as a maintenance/transition page informing visitors of this change and directing them to Staffline's main site for continued services. The business focuses on providing recruitment and workforce solutions in the logistics sector, targeting both job seekers and clients. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with jQuery and uses a maintenance plugin to display the transition message. The site is accessible without any WAF or security challenges but lacks comprehensive privacy, cookie, and contact information, which limits its compliance and user trust. Security posture is basic with no advanced headers or policies detected, though HTTPS is implied by the URL. Overall, the site is functional but minimal, reflecting a transitional state rather than a fully operational recruitment platform.

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

9 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
  2. 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';…
  3. 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

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 · found on this site
  • 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 within the transportation sector, specifically logistics recruitment, and is now a part of Staffline, a larger recruitment group. This integration likely expands their market reach and service capabilities. The business model centers on recruitment services, offering job placement and workforce solutions. The website's minimal content and lack of direct contact details suggest a strategic shift to consolidate branding under Staffline. No direct revenue streams or detailed business operations are visible on the site. The partnership with Staffline positions Logistics People as a medium-sized entity within a larger corporate structure, benefiting from Staffline's nationwide network and resources.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS usage but lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or Strict-Transport-Security. No privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating potential compliance gaps with GDPR and other data protection regulations. The login form exists but without visible advanced security measures or multi-factor authentication prompts. No incident response or security contact information is provided. The absence of analytics or tracking scripts reduces exposure to privacy risks but also limits user behavior insights. Overall, the security maturity is low to moderate, suitable for a maintenance page but insufficient for a full recruitment platform handling sensitive personal data.

Recommendations

  1. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance and improve user trust.
  2. Implement standard security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Provide clear contact information including support emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility.
  4. Enhance the login form security with measures such as CAPTCHA, multi-factor authentication, and secure password policies.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party plugins and scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities and maintain platform security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using jQuery and a maintenance mode plugin. The HTML is valid and includes meta tags for SEO and Open Graph for social sharing. The site loads external fonts from Bunny Fonts and uses minimal external scripts. Performance is moderate with no heavy resources detected. Mobile optimization is basic with viewport meta tag present but no advanced responsive design features observed. Accessibility is basic with no ARIA roles or landmarks detected. SEO is minimal with a single descriptive meta tag and Open Graph data but no structured data like JSON-LD. The site is hosted on an unknown provider with no DNS or hosting details available from WHOIS. Overall, the technical infrastructure is simple and suitable for a temporary maintenance page but would require enhancements for a full production recruitment platform.
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.
