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

Roots Metrology is a specialized NABL accredited calibration laboratory offering precision calibration and metrology services primarily to industrial and manufacturing sectors. The company positions itself as a trusted service provider with a focus on quality assurance and compliance. Their website reflects a professional and consistent brand image targeting industrial clients requiring calibration and testing services. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern frameworks like Bootstrap and integrates analytics and tracking tools such as Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforcement, security headers, and form protections like reCAPTCHA, although there is room for improvement in publishing explicit security policies and incident response details. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear privacy and cookie policies, including consent mechanisms. Overall, the website is safe, professional, and trustworthy, but the absence of WHOIS data limits domain trust verification.

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

9 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.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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';…

  3. 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

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 company operates in the manufacturing and industrial services sector, providing essential calibration and metrology solutions. Their NABL accreditation is a key competitive advantage, signaling quality and compliance. The business model is service-oriented, targeting quality assurance teams and industrial clients. The website content and structure indicate a small-sized enterprise focused on regional markets in India. The presence of social media channels and contact forms suggests active customer engagement. No evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries was found. The company maintains a clear and consistent brand presence with good content relevance and user experience.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS, security headers, and anti-bot measures on forms. However, it lacks a dedicated security policy page and incident response contact information, which are important for transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. The use of third-party scripts is standard but should be regularly audited to mitigate risks. GDPR compliance is evident through privacy and cookie policies. The overall security score is good but could be enhanced by adding vulnerability disclosure and incident response details.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  2. Add incident response contact information or abuse email addresses for transparency.
  3. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using Bootstrap framework, ensuring responsive design and good mobile optimization. It employs modern web fonts and iconography via Font Awesome. Analytics and tracking are implemented through Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity, providing insights into user behavior. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. Security headers and HTTPS are properly configured, contributing to a secure browsing experience. The site uses Gravity Forms for data collection with reCAPTCHA integration to prevent spam. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from performance tuning and enhanced accessibility compliance.
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.
