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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  2. 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

  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 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

The company positions itself as an innovative leader in the RPO market, leveraging technology and strategic consulting to optimize recruitment outcomes. Their business model focuses on scalable and tailored talent solutions, targeting mid to large enterprises across various sectors. The presence of multiple service lines and a talent intelligence platform suggests diversified revenue streams and a technology-enabled service delivery approach. Partnerships with entities like EmployInc indicate a collaborative ecosystem. The website content and testimonials reflect a customer-centric approach emphasizing trust, innovation, and personalized service. Market positioning is strong with claims of serving Fortune 100 clients and multiple industries, indicating a broad and reputable client base.

Security posture

The security posture of the website is moderate. The site employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and enforces HSTS with includeSubDomains, which is a positive security control. However, the absence of TLS 1.2 or higher protocols and lack of advanced cipher suites reduces the overall security strength. Security headers such as X-Content-Type-Options and X-XSS-Protection are present, but there is no evidence of a published security policy or incident response plan. No DNSSEC or CAA records are configured, which could enhance domain security. The site does not display cookie consent mechanisms, which may impact GDPR compliance. No vulnerability disclosures or data protection officer contacts are found, indicating limited transparency in security governance.

Recommendations

  1. Enable TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3 protocols and disable older SSL/TLS versions to strengthen encryption.
  2. Implement and display a comprehensive cookie policy with user consent mechanisms to improve privacy compliance.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan accessible to users to enhance trust and transparency.
  4. Configure DNSSEC and CAA DNS records to protect against domain hijacking and unauthorized certificate issuance.
  5. Regularly audit and update security headers and SSL configurations to adhere to best practices and reduce vulnerabilities.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using the Kadence theme and Kadence Blocks plugin suite, indicating a modern and flexible content management approach. It integrates several third-party analytics and tracking services including Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Talentegy, Apollo Tracker, and Piwik PRO, reflecting a mature digital marketing and data collection strategy. Hosting appears to be provided by GoDaddy, inferred from DNS and server headers. Performance is fast with optimized images and caching via Cloudflare and LiteSpeed Cache. Mobile optimization and accessibility are rated excellent, supported by responsive design and semantic HTML. SEO is well-implemented with Yoast SEO Premium and structured data in JSON-LD format. Technical risks include outdated SSL/TLS protocols and lack of advanced security configurations, which could impact business operations if exploited.
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.
