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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  2. 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.

  3. 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

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

TradeCentric operates in the eCommerce sector, focusing on B2B integration and automation solutions. Their business model revolves around providing software and services that streamline procurement and supply chain processes for enterprises and mid-market suppliers. The company offers multiple solution packages tailored to different customer needs, indicating a flexible and scalable approach. Their partnership ecosystem includes integrations with major ERP and eCommerce platforms such as Salesforce, SAP, Coupa, and others. The presence of customer stories and consulting services suggests a mature business with a focus on customer success and long-term relationships. The company targets industries including biotech, manufacturing, distribution, and healthcare, indicating a diversified customer base. Growth indicators include new product releases and reports available on the site, signaling ongoing innovation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent is managed via a GDPR-compliant plugin with opt-in mechanisms. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended best practice for DNS security. The site lacks explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms, which are important for transparency and trust. No signs of malware, phishing, or exposed credentials were found. The use of reputable third-party services for analytics and marketing is evident, but care should be taken to ensure these do not introduce privacy risks. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a commercial website but could be enhanced by publishing security policies and implementing additional HTTP security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Add additional HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Improve accessibility features to meet compliance standards and enhance user experience.

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using the GeneratePress theme and multiple plugins for enhanced functionality including GDPR compliance, analytics, chat, and video popups. Hosting is provided via AWS, indicated by DNS nameservers. The site uses jQuery and integrates with marketing platforms such as HubSpot and Google Tag Manager. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices including structured data (JSON-LD) for organization and webpage metadata. There is no evidence of outdated or vulnerable libraries in the provided content. Technical risks are low but could be mitigated further by improving security headers and DNS security. The site architecture supports scalability and integration with numerous third-party platforms, reflecting a mature technical infrastructure.
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.
