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.

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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

  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.

    • 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

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 29 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography
      • NIST SC-17: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-17: Public Key Infrastructure Certificates

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

natureOffice operates in the energy and sustainability sector, providing consulting and software solutions to companies aiming to become climate-neutral and reduce their carbon footprint. Their business model revolves around expert consulting, software tools for carbon accounting, and facilitating certified carbon offset projects. The company leverages recognized certifications to build trust and credibility. The target customers are environmentally conscious companies looking for compliance and competitive advantages through sustainability. The website content and testimonials indicate a solid market position with a focus on quality and tailored solutions. The company was founded in 2007, consistent with the domain age. The lack of explicit contact emails or phone numbers on the homepage suggests a preference for contact forms, possibly to streamline inquiries. The company uses modern digital marketing and analytics tools, including Usercentrics and Census, to manage consent and track user interactions responsibly.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communications. The domain is protected with clientTransferProhibited status, preventing unauthorized transfers. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which could be improved to protect against DNS spoofing. No explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected in the HTML, which are recommended best practices to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. The use of Usercentrics CMP indicates attention to privacy compliance and consent management. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified in the provided content. The absence of a public security policy or incident response contact limits transparency in security incident handling. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with additional headers and DNSSEC.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear and comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the website footer or main navigation.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing attacks.
  3. Implement and publish explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Provide a public security policy and incident response contact email (e.g., security@natureoffice.com) to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Consider adding direct contact information such as verified company emails and phone numbers to improve user trust and accessibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using the Nuxt.js framework with Vue.js, styled with Tailwind CSS, indicating a modern and maintainable tech stack. It uses Cloudflare for DNS and likely CDN services, contributing to fast performance and security. The integration of Usercentrics CMP ensures GDPR-compliant cookie consent management. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA attributes. Performance appears fast with preloading and module preloading of scripts. No CMS like WordPress or Drupal is detected, suggesting a custom or headless CMS approach. The technical implementation is robust with room for improvement in security headers and DNSSEC configuration.
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.
