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

HireHop Software Ltd offers a cloud-based equipment rental software solution tailored for rental companies of all sizes, including event hire, tool rental, and equipment rental businesses. Their SaaS platform provides inventory management, job tracking, supplier and client management, and integrates with popular accounting software such as Xero, QuickBooks, and Sage. The company positions itself as an affordable, powerful, and intuitive solution with a global presence supported by multiple localized websites and strong social media engagement. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with Elementor and uses modern web technologies including jQuery, Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and Microsoft Clarity for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile optimized, accessible, and SEO friendly, with fast loading times and a professional design. The presence of multiple certifications and trust badges enhances business credibility. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and implements cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of WHOIS registration data for the domain www.hirehop.com raises concerns about domain legitimacy and registration status, which should be verified externally. Overall, HireHop demonstrates a mature digital presence with strong business and technical foundations. The main risk lies in the unclear domain registration status, which could impact trust. Strategic recommendations include improving security header implementation, publishing a security policy, and clarifying domain registration details to enhance trust and compliance.

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.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

  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

HireHop operates in the technology sector providing SaaS rental management software targeting rental companies globally. Their competitive advantage lies in a feature-rich, cloud-based platform with integrations to major accounting systems and a free tier to attract small businesses. The company leverages partnerships with accounting software providers and holds certifications such as PCI DSS and ICO registration, enhancing trust. Their business model is subscription-based with tiered pricing for users. The global reach is supported by multiple country-specific websites and multilingual support. Growth indicators include active social media presence, verified user reviews, and continuous product updates. The partnership ecosystem includes Xero, QuickBooks, Sage, and Google Workspace Marketplace. Strategic observations suggest a focus on usability, affordability, and comprehensive support to capture a broad rental market segment.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate to strong security posture with HTTPS enforced and secure form handling. Cookie consent is implemented, indicating privacy awareness. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection represents a gap that could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. No incident response or security policy pages were found, which limits transparency and preparedness. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file reduces the ability for external security researchers to report issues responsibly. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a significant concern for domain legitimacy and could indicate registration or privacy issues. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be improved by adopting additional best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Verify and clarify domain registration status to resolve WHOIS data absence and enhance trustworthiness.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize security risks and ensure privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS with Elementor page builder, leveraging jQuery and various third-party scripts for analytics and marketing such as Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and Microsoft Clarity. The site is mobile optimized and accessible with good SEO practices including meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate with some lazy loading and efficient resource loading strategies. The technical stack is mature but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and possibly a more robust hosting provider identification. The use of multiple localized domains and integration with external services demonstrates a scalable and flexible infrastructure. Technical risks are minimal but include potential exposure from missing security headers and reliance on multiple third-party scripts.
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.
