Risk levelMedium

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

BranchPattern is a sustainability and building science consultancy focused on empowering developers, designers, and organizations to create high-performance, eco-friendly buildings. Their market position is that of a specialized firm offering tailored solutions for green building certifications and portfolio-scale sustainability strategies. The website demonstrates a moderate level of digital maturity, leveraging modern web technologies such as Webflow CMS, Google Maps API, and analytics tools like Microsoft Clarity and HubSpot. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced and use of reCAPTCHA, but lacks some security headers and explicit privacy policies. The absence of WHOIS data introduces some risk in domain legitimacy verification. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy, but improvements in privacy compliance and security best practices are recommended.

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. 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
  2. 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
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 20 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography
      • NIST SC-17: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-17: Public Key Infrastructure Certificates

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

BranchPattern operates in the real estate and energy sectors, providing consulting services in sustainable building design and engineering. Their business model centers on advisory services that help clients achieve green building certifications and sustainability goals at scale. The company targets developers, designers, and organizations focused on environmental and economic sustainability. The presence of high-profile client logos such as Nike, NASA, and Google indicates strong partnerships and market credibility. The website content is well-structured and professional, supporting their positioning as a trusted sustainability partner.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and integrates security measures like Google reCAPTCHA for form protection. However, no explicit security headers were detected, which could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. There is no visible privacy policy or cookie consent mechanism, which may lead to compliance gaps with GDPR and other privacy regulations. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, limiting transparency in security management. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be enhanced by implementing recommended headers, policies, and incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear consent mechanisms to improve compliance.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection.
  3. Publish incident response and vulnerability disclosure information to increase transparency and trust.
  4. Provide clear company contact information including emails and phone numbers for better user support and credibility.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Webflow CMS and uses modern front-end technologies including Google Fonts, Google Maps API, Microsoft Clarity, and HubSpot analytics and forms. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO meta tags. Performance is moderate with some heavy images but generally well-structured HTML and CSS. Accessibility features are basic and could be improved. No hosting provider information was detected. The technical infrastructure supports a professional online presence but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and accessibility improvements.
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.
