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

Marine Hall is a cultural and event venue located in Fleetwood, UK, managed by Wyre Theatres. The website provides information about shows, weddings, private hire, and ticket bookings, targeting local community members and event attendees. The business model centers on venue management and event hosting, supported by local council investment. The website is professionally designed with consistent branding and good content quality, reflecting a small-sized hospitality entity founded around 2020. Technically, the website uses a modern tech stack including jQuery, Google Analytics, and a cookie consent mechanism from FreePrivacyPolicy.com. It is built on the Jadu CMS platform and demonstrates good mobile optimization and SEO practices. However, some improvements could be made in accessibility and security headers implementation. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and includes cookie consent with opt-in/out mechanisms, but lacks explicit security policies and incident response contact information. The WHOIS data is unavailable due to domain registration issues, which lowers the trust score despite the professional appearance and council affiliation. No vulnerabilities or malicious content were detected. Overall, the website presents a moderate risk profile with good business credibility but requires improvements in security transparency and domain registration legitimacy. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing security policies, and clarifying contact information for security incidents.

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

3 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. 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 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';…

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

Marine Hall operates as a local event venue under Wyre Theatres, focusing on cultural events, weddings, and private hires. Its market position is strengthened by council support and community engagement. The business model relies on venue rental and ticket sales, with partnerships such as Ticketsolve for event management. The target customers are local residents and event organizers. Growth indicators include recent council investments and festival expansions. The partnership ecosystem includes Wyre Theatres and ticketing platforms, with no subsidiaries identified. The website content and structure support a professional and community-focused operation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is implemented, and cookie consent mechanisms comply with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are present. The lack of contact information for security incidents limits incident response readiness. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. Compliance with GDPR is indicated but could be improved with clearer documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to meet WCAG standards for broader user inclusivity.
  4. Clarify and publish explicit contact details for general and security-related inquiries to improve trust and communication.
  5. Investigate and resolve domain registration issues with Nominet UK to ensure domain legitimacy and improve trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Jadu CMS and uses common JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and SWFObject. Google Analytics is integrated for visitor tracking, with cookie consent implemented to comply with privacy regulations. The site loads multiple CSS and JS assets from its own domain, indicating self-hosted resources. Performance is moderate with no evident blocking or errors. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO meta tags including Open Graph and Dublin Core metadata are well implemented. However, the absence of advanced security headers and incomplete WHOIS data represent technical risks. There is an opportunity to modernize the tech stack by removing legacy scripts like SWFObject and improving accessibility compliance.
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.
