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

Perspective Plastics is a small manufacturing business based in Cape Town, South Africa, specializing in the design and manufacture of plastic products such as POP displays, brochure holders, and display units. The company targets businesses and organizations requiring functional and purpose-fit plastic display solutions. The website is professionally designed using the Wix platform, featuring structured data that clearly identifies the business location and contact phone number. Technically, the site uses modern JavaScript polyfills and error monitoring via Sentry, hosted on Wix infrastructure, with moderate performance and good mobile optimization. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and no exposed sensitive data, though the absence of explicit security headers and privacy policies indicates room for improvement. Overall, the domain appears legitimate despite the lack of WHOIS registration details, which is common for privacy-protected domains. The website content is safe and business-focused with no adult or questionable material.

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 in the manufacturing sector with a niche focus on plastic display and promotional products. Its business model revolves around product design and manufacturing for marketing and retail display purposes. The website's structured data and contact information support business credibility, though the lack of privacy and cookie policies suggests limited digital maturity in compliance. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries from the website content. The company appears to maintain a consistent brand presence online, targeting local South African markets. The use of Wix indicates a cost-effective digital presence suitable for small businesses.

Security posture

The website benefits from HTTPS encryption and uses security-related JavaScript bundles to protect access tokens and override global functions, indicating some attention to security best practices. However, the absence of common security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No forms or input fields were detected that could expose vulnerabilities, and no sensitive data leakage was observed. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency and preparedness for security incidents. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced with additional headers and documented policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with consent mechanisms to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Add standard security headers such as CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen security posture.
  3. Provide clear contact information for security incidents, including an incident response or abuse email address.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerable libraries are included.
  5. Consider enhancing accessibility features and SEO optimization to improve user experience and search visibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Wix platform, leveraging its built-in CMS and hosting services. It uses modern JavaScript polyfills to support browser compatibility and includes Sentry for error monitoring. The site loads multiple static resources from Wix's CDN domains, ensuring reliable content delivery. Performance is moderate, with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO is basic, with meta tags and Open Graph data present but no advanced SEO enhancements detected. The technical stack is suitable for a small business website but could benefit from further optimization and security hardening.
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.
