Risk levelHigh

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

Printmarshall Creative is a small UK-based business specializing in graphic design and printing services, including business cards, brochures, leaflets, wedding items, and promotional gifts. The company targets local businesses and individuals in Peterborough and surrounding areas, positioning itself as a reliable partner for print projects of various scales. The website is professionally designed using WordPress with SEO optimization and social media integration, reflecting a moderate level of digital maturity. Technically, the site employs common web technologies and plugins but lacks some advanced security headers and explicit privacy documentation. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and no visible vulnerabilities, though improvements in security headers and incident response information are recommended. Overall, the site is trustworthy and safe for general audiences, but the domain WHOIS data is unavailable due to registration issues, which slightly impacts the trust assessment.

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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: PostgreSQL

      Port 5432 (PostgreSQL) is publicly accessible - PostgreSQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to PostgreSQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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

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 · found on this site
  • 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 business operates in the printing and graphic design sector, serving a niche local market with a service-based business model. Its competitive advantage lies in offering a broad range of print products tailored to both small and large projects. The company leverages social media channels for marketing and maintains a professional online presence. Revenue streams likely come from direct service sales and possibly e-commerce via WooCommerce integration. Growth indicators include active social media and updated website content. No parent or subsidiary companies are identified. The lack of detailed contact information and privacy policies suggests room for operational maturity improvements.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is properly configured, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No evidence of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries was found. The site lacks explicit security or incident response policies and contact channels, which are important for compliance and trust. GDPR compliance indicators are minimal due to missing privacy policy and data protection officer information. Overall, the security posture is functional but could be enhanced with standard best practices and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure essential security headers to improve protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to enhance compliance and user trust.
  3. Add clear contact information including company emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility.
  4. Establish and disclose incident response procedures and security contact channels.
  5. Regularly audit and update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with popular plugins such as Yoast SEO and WooCommerce, indicating a standard and maintainable infrastructure. It uses Google Fonts and Font Awesome for styling and icons. Performance is moderate with some optimization potential. Mobile responsiveness is good, but accessibility features are basic. The site lacks advanced security headers and detailed technical metadata. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the data. Overall, the technical implementation is solid for a small business but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security controls.
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.
