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

PK Properties is a well-established independent estate agency based in Rayners Lane, London, with over 25 years of experience specializing in residential sales, lettings, and property management. The company emphasizes local expertise and personalized service, catering primarily to landlords, tenants, and property buyers and sellers in London and surrounding areas. Their market position is strong within the Harrow region, supported by client testimonials and recognized certifications such as The Property Ombudsman Scheme and Client Money Protect. Technically, the website is built on the WebDadi platform, leveraging modern web technologies including Google Fonts, FontAwesome, Google reCAPTCHA v3, and Google Maps API. The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO practices and a cookie consent mechanism, reflecting a moderate to good level of digital maturity. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in accessibility and security headers. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses reCAPTCHA to protect forms, but lacks visible security headers and a published security policy or incident response contact. The absence of WHOIS data due to domain registration issues is a notable concern, although the website content and business information suggest legitimacy. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the website presents a professional and trustworthy front for PK Properties, but improvements in transparency around domain registration, security policies, and contact information would enhance trust and compliance. Strategic recommendations include implementing security headers, publishing incident response details, and clarifying domain registration status.

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.

Priority findings

4 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. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Domain Expires Soon

      Domain expires in 16 days

      What to do: Renew domain registration before expiration

    • High

      Weak SPF Policy

      SPF record has permissive policy allowing any server to send email

      What to do: Use -all or ~all qualifier for better email security

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

PK Properties operates as a small independent real estate agency focused on residential property services in London, particularly Harrow and Rayners Lane. Their competitive advantage lies in long-standing local presence, personalized client relationships, and comprehensive service offerings including sales, lettings, and property management. Revenue streams likely derive from commissions on property sales and lettings, as well as management fees. The target customer segments include landlords, tenants, and property buyers/sellers seeking local expertise. The company maintains partnerships with major property portals and industry bodies, enhancing market reach and credibility. Growth indicators include a well-maintained website with active client testimonials and digital marketing efforts. The absence of WHOIS data is a potential risk factor for business credibility and should be addressed.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enforced and use of Google reCAPTCHA v3 to mitigate automated abuse on forms. Cookie consent mechanisms align with privacy best practices. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no security.txt file is present for vulnerability disclosure. The missing WHOIS data and domain registration error introduce uncertainty about domain legitimacy. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for a small real estate business but could be improved by adopting additional security controls and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Investigate and resolve the domain registration anomaly with Nominet UK to ensure WHOIS data availability and domain legitimacy.
  4. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve security posture.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits to maintain compliance and protect customer data.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the WebDadi estate agent platform, utilizing modern front-end technologies such as Google Fonts and FontAwesome for styling, and Google Maps API for location services. Google reCAPTCHA v3 is integrated for bot mitigation on forms. The site loads external resources from reputable CDNs, contributing to moderate performance. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design elements and accessible navigation menus. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured navigation. However, the absence of certain security headers and incomplete WHOIS data indicate areas for technical improvement. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical infrastructure is stable but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and performance tuning.
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.
