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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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 firm operates in the legal sector, serving a diverse clientele with specialized service lines and industry sectors. It maintains a strong market position as an Am Law 200 member with multiple office locations. The business model focuses on providing comprehensive legal advisory and representation services. The website's integration with marketing and analytics tools like HubSpot and Google Analytics indicates a mature digital marketing strategy. Social media presence across major platforms enhances brand visibility and client engagement. The lack of explicit contact emails and phone numbers on the website suggests a preference for contact via web forms or other channels, which may impact direct client outreach.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and uses cookie consent management to comply with privacy laws. Security best practices such as no exposed sensitive data and absence of vulnerable libraries are observed. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not clearly present in the HTML, which could be improved. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure information are not publicly available, indicating potential gaps in transparency. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from enhanced header implementation and public security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify comprehensive security headers including CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen defense against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a security.txt file and clear incident response contact information to improve vulnerability disclosure and incident handling transparency.
  3. Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate risks from external dependencies.
  4. Enhance visibility of direct contact information such as company emails and phone numbers to improve client trust and communication.
  5. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to ensure ongoing compliance with evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including jQuery, Google Tag Manager, and CookieYes for consent management. It uses Vimeo for video hosting and Rank Math for SEO optimization. The site demonstrates fast loading times, excellent mobile responsiveness, and good accessibility features. The technical implementation supports a professional user experience with clear navigation and rich multimedia content. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and incident response mechanisms. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified from the HTML content.
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.
