75/100

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

PHORIA is a specialized XR studio based in Australia, focusing on emerging immersive technologies such as Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, and Mixed Reality. The company positions itself as an award-winning provider crafting impactful stories and experiences using cutting-edge XR technologies. Their target audience includes businesses and organizations seeking innovative immersive solutions. The website reflects a professional and modern digital presence with good design quality and mobile optimization. Technically, the site employs a variety of modern analytics and marketing tools including Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, Hotjar, and Segment Analytics, indicating a mature digital marketing strategy. Security-wise, the site benefits from HTTPS and uses secure third-party scripts but lacks explicit security headers and formal security policies, which are recommended for improvement. The WHOIS data is incomplete and malformed, which raises some concerns about domain registration transparency and trustworthiness. Overall, the website is functional and professional but would benefit from enhanced privacy, security disclosures, and clearer contact information to improve trust and compliance.

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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  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 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

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

PHORIA operates in the technology sector, specifically in immersive XR solutions. Their business model is service-oriented, delivering XR experiences and digital twin installations. The company appears to be small-sized with a focused niche market. They leverage multiple analytics and marketing platforms to optimize user engagement and lead generation. The absence of detailed WHOIS data and contact information suggests a potential gap in transparency. No partnerships or subsidiaries were identified from the website content. The company’s branding is consistent and content quality is good, supporting their market positioning as an innovative XR studio. Growth indicators such as awards and social media presence support a positive market reputation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and no visible exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces the overall security robustness. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are provided, which limits the ability to manage security incidents effectively. The use of multiple third-party tracking scripts increases the attack surface and privacy risks. Compliance with GDPR and other privacy regulations is not clearly demonstrated due to missing privacy and terms of service pages. The security score reflects these gaps, and strategic improvements are recommended to enhance security maturity and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen site security.
  3. Create and maintain a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and incident reporting.
  4. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for general and security-related inquiries.
  5. Regularly audit and minimize third-party scripts to reduce privacy risks and improve site performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack with Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, Hotjar, Segment Analytics, and Font Awesome icons. It loads fonts from Google Fonts and uses Animate.css for animations. The site is mobile optimized and uses responsive meta tags. However, no CMS or hosting provider information is explicitly detected. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by multiple external scripts. Accessibility features are basic, with room for improvement. SEO is supported by proper meta tags including Open Graph and Twitter Cards. The WHOIS data is incomplete, which is a technical risk for domain management. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced security configurations 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.
