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

Countfire Ltd is a UK-based technology company specializing in cloud-based PDF takeoff and estimating software tailored for electrical contractors and estimators. Founded in 2014, the company offers a SaaS platform that automates counting of electrical symbols across multiple PDFs, enabling users to dramatically save time and improve accuracy. The website reflects a strong market position with clear product offerings, user testimonials, and a professional digital presence targeting construction and electrical sectors. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including JavaScript frameworks, Google Analytics, Cookiebot for consent management, and integrations with Stripe for payments and Intercom for customer support. The site is well-optimized for performance, mobile responsiveness, and accessibility, with comprehensive SEO and structured data enhancing discoverability. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS, uses multiple security headers, and manages cookies with user consent. However, there is no explicit security policy or incident response information published, which could be improved. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain is a notable concern, potentially indicating privacy protection or data unavailability, which slightly impacts trustworthiness. Overall, Countfire presents a professional and secure online presence with strong business credibility, though clarifying domain registration details and publishing dedicated security policies would enhance trust and compliance.

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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

Countfire operates in a niche market providing specialized estimating software for electrical contractors, leveraging automation to reduce manual effort and errors. Their business model is subscription-based SaaS with a free trial to attract users. The company targets professionals in construction and electrical sectors, emphasizing time savings and accuracy. Their marketing ecosystem includes partnerships with payment processors (Stripe), scheduling tools (Calendly), and review platforms (Capterra). The website's content and testimonials suggest a loyal customer base and a growing market presence. The company maintains active social media channels to engage with customers and prospects. The lack of public WHOIS data is a minor anomaly but does not detract significantly from their operational transparency.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, robust security headers, and cookie consent management compliant with GDPR. Use of Sentry for error monitoring and Intercom for secure customer communication indicates attention to operational security. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure mechanism limits transparency and preparedness communication. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The extensive use of third-party scripts necessitates ongoing review to mitigate supply chain risks. Overall, the security posture is strong but could be enhanced by formalizing and publishing security governance documents.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information to facilitate reporting and handling of security issues.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to identify and mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Clarify domain registration details and ensure WHOIS information is accurate and publicly available to enhance trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including JavaScript, Astro framework, and integrates multiple third-party services such as Google Analytics, Cookiebot, Stripe, and Intercom. The site is well-structured with semantic HTML, optimized for SEO, and includes comprehensive structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine understanding. Performance is optimized with preloading fonts and asynchronous script loading. Mobile responsiveness and accessibility features are well-implemented. The technical infrastructure supports a cloud-based SaaS model accessible on PC and Mac platforms. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified but Cloudflare services are implied. Overall, the technical implementation is robust, modern, and aligned with best practices for SaaS web applications.
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.
