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. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  2. 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

  3. 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 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';…

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 business operates primarily in the graphic design and web development sector with an additional focus on educational seminars delivered both onsite and online via a dedicated LMS subdomain. Their business model is service-oriented, targeting small to medium clients, especially in the nonprofit sector. The company leverages WordPress and popular plugins to deliver scalable and maintainable digital services. The presence of privacy and cookie policies, along with contact forms and phone numbers, indicates a customer-focused approach. The lack of terms of service or explicit certifications suggests room for formalization. The company appears stable with a consistent brand and a clear service portfolio.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and uses privacy-focused plugins to comply with GDPR. Contact forms are implemented with Contact Form 7, a widely used and maintained plugin. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. However, security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are not explicitly observed and could be added to enhance security. There is no evidence of a vulnerability disclosure policy or incident response contact, which could be beneficial. Overall, the security posture is good for a small business website but can be improved with additional headers and formal policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Add a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting and improve transparency.
  3. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet WCAG standards for broader compliance and usability.
  5. Consider publishing terms of service and formal certifications to strengthen business credibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with the Divi theme, leveraging jQuery and several plugins including Yoast SEO and Contact Form 7. The presence of ShapePress DSGVO plugin indicates attention to GDPR compliance. Hosting appears to be managed via GoDaddy DNS services. The site is mobile optimized and uses responsive images. Performance is moderate, with no obvious blocking scripts or heavy third-party dependencies. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The technical stack is modern and appropriate for a small design agency, with opportunities to enhance security and accessibility.
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.
