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

RVL Group is a specialist aviation services provider based at East Midlands Airport in the United Kingdom, with over 30 years of experience serving government and private sector clients. The company operates a modern, versatile fleet offering a range of services including air cargo, passenger and medical charters, aerial survey, surveillance, aerial spray, and comprehensive aircraft management and maintenance. RVL positions itself as a multi-capability airline operating in challenging markets with a strong operational base and regulatory approvals. Technically, the website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using the Enfold theme and integrates common industry tools such as Google Analytics and Tag Manager. The site is well-optimized for mobile and accessibility, with good SEO practices and a professional design. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place, though there is room for improvement in implementing security headers and publishing explicit security policies. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain raises some concerns about domain legitimacy and transparency, although the website content and trust indicators strongly suggest a legitimate business. Overall, RVL Group demonstrates a mature digital presence with good business credibility but should address domain registration transparency and enhance security disclosures to improve 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

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 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. 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
  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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

RVL Group operates in the transportation sector, specifically aviation services, targeting government and private sector organizations requiring specialized air freight, charter, and operational services. The company leverages a multi-service business model combining freight, passenger, medical, and specialist aerial operations with aircraft management and maintenance. Their market position is strengthened by over three decades of experience, regulatory certifications, and industry memberships. Revenue streams likely include charter contracts, specialist operations, and aircraft management fees. The company maintains partnerships with specialist expertise providers such as Agile Spray Response and holds certifications like ISO 9001. The website content and structure reflect a professional and consistent brand image, supporting their market credibility and operational scope.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring encrypted communications. Cookie consent and privacy policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, indicating good privacy practices. However, no explicit security headers (e.g., CSP, HSTS) were detected, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. There is no visible security policy or incident response information, which limits transparency on how security incidents are handled. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the content. The use of popular and updated WordPress plugins and themes reduces the risk of known vulnerabilities. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved by adding security headers, incident response details, and a vulnerability disclosure policy.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Create and host a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance monitoring and validation of form inputs to prevent injection and other web-based attacks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.9.5 with the Enfold theme, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and plugins for UI enhancements like Magnific Popup and Masonry layouts. Google Analytics and Tag Manager are used for visitor tracking and marketing analytics. The site loads Google Fonts asynchronously and uses responsive design techniques for mobile optimization. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected, though some CSS and JS compression is disabled which could be optimized. Accessibility features are present, including ARIA labels and alt attributes. The site uses a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and well-maintained with opportunities for performance optimization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
