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

Passages International, Inc. LTD is a UK-based provider specializing in eco-friendly and sustainable funeral products, including biodegradable urns, scattering tubes, and infant caskets. Established in 1999 with a UK presence since 2005, the company serves both funeral professionals and families seeking greener memorial solutions. Their market position is that of a recognized leader in green funeral products, supported by certifications such as Fair Trade and Carbon Neutral. The website is built on the Odoo CMS platform, leveraging modern web technologies and providing a professional user experience with clear navigation and mobile optimization. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and includes CSRF tokens for form security, but lacks visible security headers and explicit privacy or cookie policies, which are areas for improvement. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure policies are present, and WHOIS data for the exact domain queried is unavailable due to domain naming rule violations, which slightly impacts trustworthiness. Overall, the site demonstrates a good security posture but would benefit from enhanced transparency and compliance documentation. The website content is safe for general audiences, focusing on meaningful, sustainable funeral products without any adult or explicit content. Contact information is clearly provided, including verified company emails and phone numbers. The site links to partner domains related to green funerals and digital memorial services, reinforcing its business ecosystem. Strategic recommendations include implementing comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, publishing security and incident response information, and improving security headers to strengthen the overall security posture.

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

9 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  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

      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

  3. 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

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

Passages International operates in the niche market of sustainable funeral products, targeting both B2B (funeral professionals) and B2C (families) segments. Their competitive advantage lies in their comprehensive product range, certifications, and decades of expertise in green funerals. Revenue streams likely include direct product sales and digital memorial services. The company maintains partnerships with organizations promoting green funerals and related services, enhancing market reach and credibility. Growth indicators include a well-maintained digital catalog and active engagement with funeral professionals. The business model emphasizes quality, sustainability, and meaningful memorial experiences, aligning with increasing consumer demand for environmentally conscious funeral options.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and CSRF protection on forms. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. Compliance gaps include missing privacy and cookie policies and lack of incident response or vulnerability disclosure information. Data protection practices appear basic, with no explicit mention of a Data Protection Officer or GDPR compliance measures. Incident response readiness is unclear due to lack of published policies. Overall, the security culture appears functional but could be enhanced with formalized policies and improved technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements and consent mechanisms.
  2. Add security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen site security.
  3. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Establish and communicate incident response procedures and provide dedicated security contact channels.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits to maintain and improve security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Odoo CMS platform, utilizing Bootstrap for responsive design and FontAwesome for icons. It integrates third-party services such as Vimeo for video content and Firebase for push notifications. The site demonstrates moderate performance and good mobile optimization. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. However, there is no explicit information about hosting providers or CDN usage. Technical debt appears low, but opportunities exist to modernize security configurations and improve accessibility compliance. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and user-friendly experience aligned with business goals.
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.
