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

Planned Environmental Services Ltd is a UK-based mechanical and electrical engineering company with over 30 years of experience, specializing in building services including design, installation, and maintenance. The company serves a diverse client base across public and private sectors, focusing on commercial, industrial, and domestic properties primarily in Essex and London. Their website reflects a professional and established business with detailed service offerings, client testimonials, and multiple industry certifications such as ISO 9001 and ISO 14001. Technically, the website uses AngularJS and modern web components, with good mobile optimization and moderate performance. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and reCAPTCHA integration, though lacking some security headers and explicit privacy policies. The absence of WHOIS registration data for the domain is a notable concern, impacting trustworthiness despite the professional presentation. Overall, the website is credible and functional but would benefit from enhanced transparency and security practices.

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. 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';…

  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

The company positions itself as a comprehensive M&E service provider with a strong regional presence and a broad client portfolio. Their competitive advantages include extensive certifications, a 24/7 emergency service, and a history of successful projects. The business model is service-oriented, targeting facility managers and building owners requiring reliable technical building services. The website content and client testimonials indicate a stable and reputable operation with growth potential. However, the lack of WHOIS data and privacy documentation may affect partnerships and client trust. The company appears to maintain a focused partnership ecosystem, including affiliations with industry bodies and certification organizations.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and use of Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content Security Policy and HSTS reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of a published security policy or incident response information indicates room for improvement in compliance and readiness. GDPR compliance is not clearly documented, and no data protection officer contact is provided. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but should be enhanced to meet best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve transparency and compliance.
  2. Add security headers including Content Security Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Clarify domain registration status and ensure WHOIS data is properly registered and publicly available to improve trustworthiness.
  4. Establish and communicate an incident response plan and contact channels for security issues.
  5. Conduct regular security audits of third-party libraries and update technology stack to maintain security and performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using AngularJS with integration of slick slider and Google reCAPTCHA, indicating a moderately modern tech stack. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and uses standard HTML5 and CSS3. Performance is moderate with some potential for improvement in loading speed and accessibility compliance. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. SEO is basic with canonical tags and Open Graph metadata present but lacking detailed meta descriptions and keywords. The site uses lazy loading for images but has some broken lazy loading attributes. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs but could benefit from modernization and enhanced SEO and accessibility features.
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.
