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

BrandShelter™ is a specialized service provider focused on protecting trademarks and intellectual property online, offering comprehensive domain management, monitoring, and legal support services. The company is positioned as a trusted partner for global brands and operates as part of Team Internet PLC, a major player in domain management. The website is professionally designed, multilingual, and provides detailed information about their services, client testimonials, and certifications such as ISO/IEC 27001, indicating a strong commitment to security and quality. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern analytics and marketing tools integrated, ensuring good performance and user experience across devices. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and certifications, though some security headers could be improved. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear policies and cookie consent mechanisms. However, the WHOIS data for the domain is missing or not publicly available, which raises some concerns about domain registration transparency. Overall, the site demonstrates a mature digital presence with strong business credibility but would benefit from clarifying domain registration details to enhance trust.

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

7 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. 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

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

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

BrandShelter operates in the technology sector, providing essential trademark and domain protection services to enterprises and brand owners worldwide. Their business model revolves around managed services including domain portfolio management, brand monitoring, legal actions, and security services like SSL certificates. The company leverages its affiliation with Team Internet PLC to enhance market reach and credibility. Their target customers are medium to large enterprises requiring robust brand protection online. The presence of client testimonials and ISO certification supports a competitive advantage in trust and service quality. The company maintains a multilingual website targeting French-speaking clients, with additional language options available. Revenue streams likely include subscription-based services and consulting. The partnership ecosystem includes Team Internet and various technology providers. Strategic observations suggest a focus on expanding domain management and legal protection services in a growing market for online brand security.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and ISO/IEC 27001 certification prominently displayed, indicating adherence to recognized information security standards. The use of cookie consent banners and privacy policies aligns with GDPR compliance. No direct vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options is a minor gap. There is no visible incident response or security contact information, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. The integration of third-party analytics and marketing tools is managed with asynchronous loading to reduce risk. Overall, the security posture is strong for a service provider in this domain, but adding a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response details would further strengthen it.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Provide a dedicated incident response or security contact page to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Clarify domain registration details or ensure WHOIS data is publicly available to enhance domain legitimacy and trust.
  5. Maintain and regularly update privacy and cookie policies to stay compliant with evolving regulations.

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.
