Ashmores Press Brake Tooling Limited · Manufacturing · United Kingdom
Medium risk. 6 critical or high findings in DNS health, Security headers and 1 other check.
Ashmores Press Brake Tooling Limited is a UK-based manufacturer specializing in press brake tooling, serving both CNC and conventional press brake users. Established in 1919, it claims to be the UK's longest established manufacturer in this niche, offering a wide range of tooling products, refurbishment services, and technical support. The company targets manufacturing businesses requiring high-quality tooling solutions and exports internationally. The website is professionally designed with clear navigation, product catalogs, and interactive tools such as a bending calculator app, supporting its business model effectively. Technically, the website employs standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, jQuery, and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking. It includes a cookie consent mechanism and privacy policy, indicating basic compliance with privacy regulations. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic but functional. However, the use of an outdated jQuery version and lack of explicit security headers indicate areas for improvement in security posture. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS and has a cookie consent banner, but lacks visible security headers and incident response information. The WHOIS data for the domain is unavailable due to a domain registration error indicating the domain name is invalid per Nominet UK rules, which raises concerns about domain legitimacy despite the professional website content. This discrepancy suggests a need for further verification of domain registration status. Overall, the website presents a credible business front with good content quality and user experience but has moderate security and compliance maturity. Strategic improvements in security headers, updated libraries, and domain registration clarity are recommended to enhance trust and reduce risk.
Scanned
NIS2 Art. 21(2)
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.
6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.
Unable to resolve domain A records
What to do: Verify domain is properly configured and not expired
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.
Forces HTTPS connections
What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"
Prevents clickjacking attacks
What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"
Controls resources the browser is allowed to load
What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application
TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.
Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1
What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions
SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak
What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.
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
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.
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.

Leaked credentials and lookalike domains from OffSeq Breach. The counts are free; the detailed lists are paid add-ons.

No leaked records found
Breach holds no records for pressbraketool.co.uk right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.
Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.
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.
