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

Rabbithole LTD is a small UK-based design studio specializing in strategic website design, web development, and graphic design services. Established in 2019, the company operates primarily from Leeds and Glasgow, targeting businesses seeking expert design and development solutions. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with clear service offerings and a focus on strategic creative work. Technically, the website is built on WordPress and employs modern web technologies including JavaScript and video media. It integrates Google Analytics for user tracking and Mailchimp for marketing communications. The site is mobile-optimized and demonstrates good SEO practices, although accessibility features are basic. Hosting and domain registration are consistent with the business location and claims. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with an excellent SSL configuration but lacks visible security headers and a cookie consent mechanism, which are recommended for enhanced security and privacy compliance. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Privacy policy is present and GDPR compliance is indicated, but incident response and security policies are not published. Overall, Rabbithole presents a trustworthy and professional online presence with moderate technical maturity and a solid business credibility score. Strategic improvements in security headers and privacy consent mechanisms would further strengthen their security posture and compliance standing.

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

4 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 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. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Business profile

Rabbithole operates as a specialized design studio with a clear market position in the UK creative services sector. Their competitive advantage lies in strategic thinking combined with design and development expertise. The business model is service-oriented, focusing on bespoke client projects. Revenue streams likely derive from client contracts and retainers. Target customers include businesses and organizations requiring high-quality digital design solutions. The company shows growth potential with active social media engagement and marketing efforts via Mailchimp. No direct partnerships or subsidiaries were identified from the website content.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduces defense-in-depth. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. GDPR compliance is partially addressed via a privacy policy but lacks explicit cookie consent. No vulnerable libraries or insecure forms were detected. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small design studio but could benefit from enhanced security controls and documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to improve protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and ePrivacy regulations.
  3. Publish a formal security policy and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users and meet WCAG standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with custom theme assets and uses modern JavaScript modules. It incorporates video content and responsive design techniques for mobile optimization. Google Analytics is integrated asynchronously for performance. The site loads with moderate speed and has good SEO metadata including Open Graph and Twitter Card tags. However, no advanced performance optimizations like caching headers or CDN usage were explicitly detected. Accessibility is basic, and there is room for improvement in semantic markup and ARIA attributes. The technical infrastructure is solid for a small creative agency but could be modernized further for scalability and security.
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.
