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

Moore and York is a small UK-based real estate agency specializing in residential sales and lettings primarily in Leicester and surrounding areas. The company offers a comprehensive range of property services including sales, lettings, valuations, and professional services, supported by an online property search platform. The website demonstrates a consistent brand presence and includes multiple industry certifications, enhancing its market credibility. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using modern plugins such as PropertyHive for property management, Contact Form 7 for forms, and Yoast SEO for search optimization. It employs Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile-optimized and performs moderately well, though some accessibility features could be improved. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and integrates Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms from spam. However, it lacks several HTTP security headers and a cookie consent mechanism, which are recommended for enhanced security and privacy compliance. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain legitimacy verification, though the website content and certifications suggest a legitimate business. Overall, Moore and York presents a professional and trustworthy online presence with room for technical and security enhancements. Strategic improvements in security headers, privacy compliance, and domain transparency would strengthen its risk posture and user trust.

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

5 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
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  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

  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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Moore and York operates as a local real estate agency with a focus on residential property sales and lettings in Leicester. Its competitive advantage lies in its established local presence, multiple industry certifications, and comprehensive online property listings. The business model centers on brokerage services with revenue streams from sales commissions, lettings fees, and ancillary professional services. The target customers include property buyers, sellers, landlords, and tenants in the Leicester area. The company maintains partnerships with recognized certification bodies and uses third-party marketing and analytics tools to support growth. The website's content and structure indicate a mature digital presence aligned with industry standards.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is properly enforced, and Google reCAPTCHA is implemented to mitigate spam and automated abuse on forms. No sensitive data is exposed in the HTML source. However, the absence of key HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents a gap that could be exploited by attackers. There is no publicly available security policy or incident response information, which limits transparency and preparedness. GDPR compliance is indicated via privacy and cookie policies, but the lack of a cookie consent mechanism is a compliance risk. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be improved with additional hardening and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and ePrivacy regulations.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  4. Create and host a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve security communication.
  5. Regularly audit and update all WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate risks from known vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 7.0.2 with a child theme and uses a variety of plugins including PropertyHive for real estate listings, Contact Form 7 for form management, and Yoast SEO for search engine optimization. The front-end uses Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for interactivity. Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel are integrated for analytics and marketing. The site loads multiple CSS and JS assets asynchronously to optimize performance. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive layouts and image handling. Accessibility features are basic but present. The site lacks some modern security headers and cookie consent mechanisms, which are technical debt areas. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found in the content.
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.
