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

OneBite Creative is a small creative design agency based in Los Angeles, California, specializing in web design, logo creation, social media management, public relations, and video production. The company targets businesses and individuals seeking comprehensive creative and digital marketing services. The website is built on the Squarespace platform, indicating a modern and user-friendly technical infrastructure with good mobile optimization and moderate performance. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled, but lacks advanced security headers and formal privacy or cookie policies. The absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy and age, which should be monitored. Overall, the website presents a professional image but would benefit from enhanced security and compliance measures.

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. 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

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 operates as a service provider in the creative design sector, focusing on local or regional clients. Its business model revolves around offering tailored creative solutions including branding, web presence, and social media management. The market position is that of a small agency with potential for growth. The lack of detailed business registration or contact information limits transparency. The Instagram social media presence supports marketing efforts but is limited in scope. No partnerships or subsidiaries were identified. The website content is relevant and professionally presented, supporting credibility in its niche.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communications, which is a fundamental security measure. However, it lacks additional security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others that enhance protection against common web attacks. No evidence of security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosures were found, indicating limited formal security governance. The absence of privacy and cookie policies also suggests potential compliance gaps with GDPR and other regulations. No tracking or analytics scripts were detected, reducing privacy risks but also limiting business intelligence capabilities. Overall, the security posture is basic and could be improved to better protect users and the business.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance website security.
  3. Publish clear contact information including business email and phone number to improve business credibility and user support.
  4. Establish an incident response contact channel (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email) to handle security issues effectively.
  5. Monitor domain registration status and update WHOIS information to ensure transparency and trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on Squarespace, leveraging its built-in CMS and hosting infrastructure. It uses Typekit and Google Fonts for typography, and standard JavaScript and CSS for functionality and styling. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate, typical for a Squarespace site. No advanced frameworks or custom backend technologies were detected. The technical implementation is solid for a small creative agency but could benefit from enhanced accessibility features and performance optimizations.
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.
