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

2 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

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

Marketreach holds a strong market position as a trusted source of mail marketing insights in the UK, supported by Royal Mail. Its business model focuses on providing data-driven marketing consultancy, training, and resources to a diverse set of sectors including retail, government, telecommunications, charity, and finance. The company leverages partnerships and certifications such as Print Green Supporter to enhance credibility. The website's content and social media presence indicate active engagement with its target audience. However, direct contact details are limited to forms and social channels, which may impact direct client outreach.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the absence of key security headers like Content-Security-Policy and lack of published security policies or incident response contacts represent areas for improvement. The WHOIS lookup failure is due to querying a subdomain rather than the registered domain and does not indicate malicious intent. Overall, the security risk is low but can be enhanced by adopting additional best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve transparency.
  3. Provide explicit incident response contact information on the website to enhance trust and readiness.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tag management configurations to minimize tracking risks and ensure compliance.
  5. Enhance direct contact options with verified company emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10 CMS, leveraging modern JavaScript and CSS for a responsive and accessible user experience. Integration with Tealium tag management enables advanced tracking and analytics capabilities. The site demonstrates good SEO practices with canonical links, meta viewport tags, and structured navigation. Performance is moderate with preloading of key resources. Accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA attributes are implemented. No hosting provider details were identified from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable digital presence.
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.
