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

MTP Cooling Ltd. is a small UK-based company specializing in air conditioning installation, repair, maintenance, and product sales primarily serving domestic and commercial customers in London and surrounding areas. The company has been operational since 2009, indicating a stable market presence with a focus on quality service and customer satisfaction, supported by supplier partnerships and customer testimonials. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with clear navigation and relevant content tailored to its target audience. Technically, the website employs a modern JavaScript stack including jQuery, Slick Carousel, PhotoSwipe, and integrates Google Analytics and Google Maps APIs. Hosting is provided by Fasthosts Internet Ltd, a reputable UK hosting provider. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly but lacks advanced accessibility features. Performance is moderate with room for improvement in technical implementation and security hardening. From a security perspective, the website uses HTTPS and includes no exposed sensitive data, but lacks visible security headers and formal privacy or cookie policies, which are critical for GDPR compliance. There is no incident response or security contact information published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present. The use of third-party tracking and marketing scripts is moderate, but privacy compliance is weak due to missing policies and consent mechanisms. Overall, the website is functional and professional but requires improvements in privacy compliance, security best practices, and transparency to enhance trustworthiness and regulatory adherence. Strategic recommendations include implementing comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, adding security headers, publishing incident response contacts, and conducting security audits of third-party integrations.

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

11 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

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 · found on this site
  • 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

MTP Cooling Ltd. operates in a competitive HVAC service market focusing on air conditioning solutions for both domestic and commercial clients. Their business model combines service delivery with product sales through an affiliated online store, expanding revenue streams. The company leverages supplier partnerships with recognized brands such as Daikin and Mitsubishi, enhancing credibility. Customer testimonials and case studies indicate a focus on quality and reliability. The target market is geographically focused on London and nearby areas, with a small company size suggesting a localized but established operation. The partnership ecosystem includes industry certifications and supplier affiliations, supporting business growth and market positioning.

Security posture

The current security posture of the website is moderate but with notable gaps. HTTPS is presumably enforced, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security reduces protection against common web attacks. The lack of published privacy and cookie policies indicates non-compliance with GDPR and other data protection regulations. No incident response or abuse contact information is provided, limiting the ability to handle security incidents effectively. Third-party scripts for analytics and marketing introduce potential risks if not regularly audited. Overall, the security culture appears basic, with room for significant improvement in compliance and technical safeguards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and prominently publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Add essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection.
  3. Publish clear incident response and abuse contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance website accessibility features to comply with standards and improve user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of popular JavaScript libraries and plugins such as jQuery, Slick Carousel, and PhotoSwipe to deliver interactive and responsive user experiences. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are integrated for traffic analysis, while CallPage widget supports customer engagement via phone calls. Hosting is managed by Fasthosts Internet Ltd, a reputable UK provider. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design elements and includes SEO-friendly meta tags and Open Graph data. However, no CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or static site architecture. Performance is moderate with potential for optimization. The absence of advanced accessibility features and security headers indicates technical debt and modernization opportunities.
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.
