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

Quality paint and panel is a small, family-owned automotive repair business based in Australia, offering quality auto repairs backed by decades of combined mechanic experience. The company emphasizes competitive pricing, a quality promise with 12-month warranties, and the use of reputable brand parts to ensure customer satisfaction and vehicle safety. The website reflects a local service provider model targeting vehicle owners seeking reliable auto repair and maintenance services. Technically, the website is built using GoDaddy Website Builder, hosted by GoDaddy, and employs modern web technologies including service workers and Google Fonts. The site is mobile optimized with moderate performance and basic accessibility features. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and service worker usage, but lacks advanced security headers and formal security policies. Privacy compliance is weak due to absence of privacy and cookie policies, and no GDPR indicators. Contact information and incident response details are not present, limiting direct communication channels. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy for its business scope but would benefit from enhanced security and privacy practices.

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

5 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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

The business operates in the transportation sector as a small, family-owned auto repair shop in Australia. It leverages its experienced mechanics and competitive pricing as key differentiators. The business model focuses on service delivery with warranties to build trust and customer retention. The website does not reveal partnerships or subsidiaries, indicating a standalone operation. The lack of social media presence and limited digital marketing tools suggests a localized customer base. The company’s competitive advantage lies in its quality promise and experienced staff. Growth opportunities may include expanding digital presence and formalizing compliance and security policies to enhance credibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enabled and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, it lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options, which are recommended to mitigate common web attacks. There is no evidence of a security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms, which are important for compliance and trust. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates potential compliance gaps with GDPR and other privacy regulations. No analytics or tracking scripts reduce privacy risks but also limit user behavior insights. Overall, the security maturity is low to moderate, suitable for a small business but requiring improvements to meet best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear consent mechanisms to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Publish contact information including emails and phone numbers for customer support and incident response to improve communication and trust.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to demonstrate commitment to security and responsible disclosure.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and SEO optimization to improve user experience and search engine visibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on GoDaddy Website Builder platform, utilizing modern web standards including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. It uses Google Fonts (Cabin and Lato) for typography and registers a service worker for offline capabilities or performance enhancements. Hosting is provided by GoDaddy, consistent with the registrar information. The site loads moderate external scripts primarily from GoDaddy domains and does not include third-party analytics or advertising scripts, reducing complexity and privacy concerns. Performance is moderate with mobile optimization considered good. However, the site lacks advanced SEO and accessibility features, and no CMS beyond the GoDaddy builder is detected. Technical debt appears low but opportunities exist to improve security headers, privacy compliance, and richer metadata for SEO.
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.
