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. 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 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

  3. 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

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

Max Solutions operates in the employment, health, education, and disability support sectors, funded partly by government programs. Their business model focuses on service delivery to individuals and organizations, supported by vocational training and health services. The company benefits from a strong parent company relationship with AKG Global, enhancing its market reach. Their digital presence is well-optimized for user experience and marketing, with active social media channels and comprehensive service information. The company demonstrates strong trust indicators including certifications and a clear privacy framework. Growth potential is supported by diverse service lines and government program involvement.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Cloudflare DNS, providing a secure foundation. Cookie consent mechanisms and privacy policies are in place, indicating compliance with privacy regulations. However, the absence of explicit security headers and a public security policy or incident response contact reduces transparency. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of multiple third-party analytics and marketing tools suggests extensive user tracking, which is managed with consent. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved by publishing security policies and implementing additional HTTP security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and trust.
  2. Add HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve security posture.
  3. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Review and minimize third-party tracking scripts where possible to enhance user privacy and reduce attack surface.
  5. Maintain regular security audits and update third-party libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, a robust enterprise CMS, and uses Cloudflare for DNS management. It integrates modern JavaScript libraries and marketing tools including Google Analytics, Hotjar, Marketo, and Adobe Launch, indicating a mature digital marketing strategy. The site is mobile-optimized with good accessibility and SEO practices. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by multiple third-party scripts. The technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced security headers and performance optimizations to reduce load times and improve security.
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.
