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

Phoenix Flooring Ltd operates as a professional commercial flooring contractor in the United Kingdom, specializing in commercial carpets, vinyl, safety, and wooden flooring. The company targets businesses and commercial property owners seeking reliable flooring solutions. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image with a clear business focus and offers a free, no-obligation quote via a contact form. The site is built on WordPress, utilizing common plugins such as Yoast SEO, Slider Revolution, and WPBakery Page Builder, and integrates Google Analytics and Google reCAPTCHA for analytics and form security respectively. HTTPS is enforced, ensuring secure communications. However, the WHOIS lookup for the domain 'www.pfcu.co.uk' failed due to domain naming rules, indicating a possible discrepancy or misconfiguration in domain registration. This reduces trustworthiness from a domain registration perspective.

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

8 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

  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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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 a niche market segment providing commercial flooring services, likely generating revenue through direct service contracts and installations. The website content is tailored to attract commercial clients with clear service offerings and a call to action for quotes. The absence of explicit contact emails or phone numbers suggests a preference for lead capture via forms. The lack of visible privacy and cookie policies may indicate limited compliance maturity. No partnerships or subsidiaries are evident from the website content or linked domains. The business appears small-sized with a founding date around 2017, consistent with the website's published date.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and Google reCAPTCHA protecting forms against spam. Google Analytics is configured with IP anonymization, reflecting some privacy awareness. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options and lack of explicit security or incident response policies indicate room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. The site would benefit from publishing security policies and implementing additional HTTP security headers to enhance protection.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with user consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen security posture.
  3. Clarify domain registration details and ensure WHOIS information is accurate and consistent with the website branding.
  4. Publish incident response and vulnerability disclosure information to build trust and preparedness.
  5. Regularly update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities and maintain platform security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using a modern tech stack including PHP, jQuery, and popular plugins for SEO, page building, and sliders. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are used for analytics and marketing tracking. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts. Accessibility features are basic but present. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but could be enhanced with improved security headers and privacy compliance 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.
