National Property Group is a UK-based small business specializing in providing property advice and news related to property ownership, rental, investment, and mortgages. The website targets UK property owners, renters, and investors seeking guidance and market insights.

The site is moderately optimized for performance and mobile devices, with good SEO practices and basic accessibility features.

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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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
  2. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Weak SPF Policy

      SPF record has permissive policy allowing any server to send email

      What to do: Use -all or ~all qualifier for better email security

  3. 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"

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.

Breach exposure

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention nationalpropertygroup.co.uk, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for nationalpropertygroup.co.uk right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The company operates in the real estate sector, focusing on UK property advice and news. Its business model revolves around content provision and advisory services, likely monetized through advertising or partnerships. The target audience includes property owners, renters, and investors in the UK market. The domain age and registration details align with the company's founding year, indicating legitimacy. The presence of Google Analytics and cookie consent suggests a standard approach to user tracking and privacy compliance. However, the absence of explicit contact information and terms of service pages may limit user trust and engagement. The company maintains consistent branding and content quality, positioning itself as a specialized resource in the UK property niche.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS as indicated by the Open Graph URL and uses cookie consent banners to comply with privacy regulations. However, no explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, or X-Frame-Options were detected in the provided data. There is no evidence of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure program. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified. The use of third-party scripts like Google Analytics and Font Awesome is standard but requires regular auditing to mitigate supply chain risks. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be improved by implementing additional security headers, publishing security policies, and establishing incident response mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish comprehensive terms of service and security policy pages to improve transparency and user trust.
  3. Add explicit incident response and vulnerability disclosure information to demonstrate security readiness.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website employs a modern technology stack including Google Analytics for tracking, Font Awesome for icons, Swiper.js for interactive elements, and Google Fonts for typography. The site uses a custom stylesheet and appears to be hosted with a registrar named Netcetera Ltd. Performance is moderate with indications of mobile optimization and responsive design. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. However, no CMS or specific frameworks were identified, suggesting a custom or lightweight implementation. Technical risks include the absence of security headers and limited accessibility features. Opportunities exist to improve performance, security, and compliance through modernization and best practices adoption.
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.
