Risk levelHigh

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

Santa Maria International is a small manufacturing company based in India specializing in the production and export of finished leather products. The company positions itself as a quality-focused and innovative player in the leather industry, holding a Leather Working Group Gold certification which enhances its market credibility. The website is built on WordPress with a standard technology stack including Bootstrap and jQuery, providing a moderate level of technical maturity. While the site is accessible and professionally designed with clear navigation and relevant content, it lacks key compliance elements such as privacy and cookie policies. Security posture is basic with HTTPS enabled but missing important security headers and running outdated software versions, which could expose the site to vulnerabilities. Contact information is clearly provided, supporting business credibility, but no forms or data collection mechanisms are present on the homepage. Overall, the site reflects a legitimate business with room for improvement in security and privacy 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

11 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  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.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  4. 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"

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 · found on this site
  • 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 sector, targeting global businesses requiring finished leather. Its business model focuses on manufacturing and exporting high-quality leather products. The presence of a Leather Working Group Gold rating indicates commitment to sustainability and quality standards. The website references a partner domain, maria-exports.com, suggesting a partnership or related business entity. The company maintains social media presence on Facebook and LinkedIn, supporting its market visibility. However, the lack of privacy and cookie policies may impact trust with privacy-conscious customers. The business appears stable but small in size, with no parent or subsidiary companies identified.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS, which is a fundamental security requirement. However, it lacks critical security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security, reducing its defense against common web attacks. The WordPress core and jQuery versions are outdated, increasing the risk of exploitation through known vulnerabilities. No incident response or security contact information is provided, and no vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file is found. These gaps indicate a low to moderate security maturity level. The absence of forms reduces attack surface but also limits user engagement. Overall, the security posture requires significant improvements to meet modern standards and compliance requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance considerations.
  2. Update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to the latest secure versions and upgrade jQuery to a supported version.
  3. Add essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-XSS-Protection, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Establish an incident response contact channel (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email) and consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  5. Enhance website accessibility and mobile optimization to improve user experience and SEO.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 4.5.32, which is outdated and may expose the site to security vulnerabilities. It uses Bootstrap 3.3.6 for responsive design and jQuery 1.12.4, also outdated. The site includes plugins such as BoldGrid Gallery and Photo Gallery for media display. Performance is moderate with no advanced optimization detected. SEO is basic with meta tags present but no structured data like JSON-LD found. Accessibility features are minimal. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The site uses HTTPS but lacks advanced security configurations. Overall, the technical infrastructure is functional but requires modernization and security hardening.
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.
