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

Ogle Models & Prototypes Ltd is a well-established UK-based company specializing in rapid prototyping, model making, and 3D printing services. With over 70 years of experience, the company serves a diverse range of industries including aerospace, automotive, medical, and product design. Their key services include advanced manufacturing techniques such as SLS, SLA, FDM 3D printing, CNC machining, vacuum casting, and finishing processes. The website reflects a mature digital presence with comprehensive service descriptions, client testimonials, and a professional design that supports their market position as a leading prototype engineering firm. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern frameworks like Bootstrap and integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Hotjar, and LiveChat for customer engagement and data insights. The site is mobile-optimized, SEO-friendly, and includes structured data for enhanced search engine visibility. Security measures include HTTPS enforcement, reCAPTCHA on forms, and cookie consent mechanisms, although additional HTTP security headers could further strengthen the security posture. From a security and compliance perspective, the site demonstrates good privacy and cookie policy implementations aligned with GDPR requirements. However, no explicit security policy or incident response contact information is published, which could be improved. The WHOIS data for the domain is unavailable, which raises some transparency concerns, but the overall legitimacy is supported by the professional content, certifications, and client base. Overall, Ogle Models presents a trustworthy and professional online presence suitable for its B2B manufacturing audience. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing a security policy, and improving WHOIS transparency to further bolster 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.

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

      No Name Servers Found

      Unable to find name servers for domain

      What to do: Configure proper name servers for the domain

  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.

Technical appendix

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

Business context

Business profile

Ogle Models operates in the manufacturing sector, focusing on rapid prototyping and model making services. Their competitive advantage lies in their extensive experience, diverse manufacturing capabilities, and strong client portfolio including aerospace and automotive sectors. The business model is primarily B2B, targeting companies requiring prototype engineering and low-volume production parts. Revenue streams likely include project-based prototyping services and production contracts. The company demonstrates growth through digital marketing, client case studies, and industry-specific solutions. Partnerships with technology providers and certifications like ISO 9001 enhance credibility. The website's comprehensive content and client logos indicate a mature market presence and a well-established operational framework.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate to strong security posture with HTTPS enforced and use of Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms from spam. Cookie consent mechanisms are implemented to comply with privacy regulations. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options represents an area for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact reduces transparency in security governance. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by adopting additional best practices and formalizing security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance WHOIS transparency by ensuring domain registration details are publicly available or justified if privacy protection is used.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to maintain compliance with evolving regulations such as GDPR and NIS2.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for client-side scripting. It integrates multiple third-party services including Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Hotjar, and LiveChat, indicating a mature digital marketing and customer engagement strategy. The site loads a variety of external scripts and fonts, which may impact performance but are common in modern web design. The site is mobile-optimized and includes accessibility features such as screen-reader text and ARIA labels. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, Open Graph, Twitter cards, and structured JSON-LD data. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization by reducing external dependencies and improving caching strategies. No critical technical debt or deprecated libraries were detected.
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.
