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. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

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

Mizzi Studio targets clients seeking high-quality, sustainable architectural and design services with a focus on community, culture, and climate. Their business model centers on providing multi-disciplinary design solutions that fuse tradition with technology and craft. The company demonstrates competitive advantages through its award-winning status, international presence, and commitment to UN Sustainable Development Goals. Revenue streams likely derive from project-based architectural and design services. The partnership ecosystem includes recognized industry certifications and a professional digital agency (wearegoat) for website development. Growth indicators include upcoming projects and active social media engagement. Strategic observations suggest a focus on expanding sustainable design influence and maintaining high design standards.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enabled and a GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanism. However, it lacks visible security headers and explicit security or incident response policies, which are important for comprehensive security maturity. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file indicates room for improvement in transparency and incident handling readiness. Overall, the security culture appears professional but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness for security incidents.
  3. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.
  5. Enhance privacy compliance by providing clear data retention policies and expanding privacy policy details beyond cookie usage.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern, cloud-hosted CMS platform (Webflow) with a clean, responsive design optimized for mobile devices. It uses popular JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Swiper.js for interactivity and user experience enhancements. Google Analytics is integrated for visitor tracking, and a robust cookie consent mechanism is implemented via Finsweet Cookie Consent. Performance is fast with optimized images and lazy loading. The site structure and meta tags support good SEO practices. Technical debt appears minimal, but the lack of security headers and formal security documentation represents a technical risk that should be addressed to maintain operational security and trust.
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.
