The company targets businesses seeking to enhance customer acquisition and retention through innovative digital sales programs, including referral programs, sales partner solutions, and omnichannel sales strategies. Their market position is that of an established medium-sized B2B service provider with a strong reputation and a consistent brand presence. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using Elementor and Gravity Forms, optimized with WP Rocket for performance, and integrates Usercentrics for GDPR-compliant consent management.

Scanned

3 of 7 checks could not complete. The site may be unreachable or blocking automated scans, so the results below cover only what could be checked. Try a rescan later.

NIS2 and GDPR posture

Not assessed
GDPR outside view
Not assessed

Both readouts depend on the site's pages, which could not be loaded in this scan.

Priority findings

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

    • High

      No DMARC record found

      DMARC provides email authentication and reporting

      What to do: Add DMARC record: "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@yourdomain.com"

  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 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

  3. Network security

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

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

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

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.
  • GDPR outside view: 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

The company operates in the energy and technology sectors, providing digital sales and referral marketing solutions primarily to other businesses. Their competitive advantage lies in their long-standing experience, comprehensive service offerings, and strong client testimonials. Revenue streams likely include service contracts for referral programs, incentivization schemes, and omnichannel sales solutions. The target customers are medium to large enterprises seeking to improve sales performance and customer loyalty. The company maintains partnerships with technology providers like Usercentrics and CleanTalk, and self-hosts analytics via Matomo, indicating a controlled and privacy-focused ecosystem. The active blog and news sections suggest ongoing engagement and thought leadership in their domain.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security maturity level with enforced HTTPS, use of Content Security Policy monitoring, and integration of anti-spam and consent management tools. There are no visible security vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates gaps in formal security governance. Compliance with GDPR is evident through the Usercentrics CMP and cookie consent mechanisms. The security culture appears proactive but could benefit from enhanced transparency and formal documentation to improve incident readiness and stakeholder trust.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security practices and commitments.
  2. Establish and publicize an incident response contact channel (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email).
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Add explicit security headers such as Referrer-Policy and Permissions-Policy to strengthen browser security.
  5. Continue regular security audits and maintain GDPR compliance with ongoing updates to consent management.

The website leverages a modern WordPress CMS with Elementor page builder and Gravity Forms for interactive forms. Performance optimizations include WP Rocket for caching, lazy loading, and script deferring. The integration of Usercentrics ensures GDPR-compliant consent management.

No significant technical debt or outdated libraries were detected. Opportunities exist to further enhance security headers and formalize security documentation.
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.
