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

StockFood, operated by Grosby Group, is a leading global media agency specializing in food photography and related content. The website offers a comprehensive portfolio of images, videos, features, and recipes sourced from over 1,500 professional photographers. It targets creative professionals and media agencies seeking high-quality food-related media assets. The company maintains a strong international presence with localized domains and multilingual support. Technically, the site uses a combination of jQuery and React (version 15.4.0), indicating a partially modern but somewhat legacy technology stack. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly with structured data enhancing search engine visibility. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and secure forms, but lacks advanced security headers and explicit incident response policies. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism detected. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and well-positioned in its niche.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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 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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

    • 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

StockFood holds a strong market position as a specialized media agency in the food photography sector, leveraging a large network of photographers and offering diverse content types including images, videos, and recipes. Its business model is based on licensing media content and providing custom production services. The company targets creative agencies, food industry professionals, and content creators globally, with a particular focus on Brazil for this domain. The presence of multiple country-specific domains and partner brands indicates a mature partnership ecosystem. Revenue streams likely include licensing fees, custom production contracts, and subscription services. The company demonstrates consistent branding and professional content presentation, supporting its credibility and growth potential.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and no sensitive data is exposed in the HTML content. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. The use of an outdated React version (15.4.0) may expose the site to known vulnerabilities if not properly patched. There is no publicly available security policy or incident response information, which limits transparency and preparedness. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but lacking cookie consent mechanisms. No vulnerability disclosures or security.txt files were found. Overall, the site is secure enough for general use but would benefit from enhanced security controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  3. Update React and other JavaScript libraries to the latest secure versions to reduce vulnerability risks.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and penetration testing to identify and remediate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of jQuery and React 15.4.0, indicating a hybrid legacy and modern JavaScript stack. CSS is managed via versioned stylesheet files. The site includes structured data in JSON-LD format for organization and website schema, enhancing SEO. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive menus and accessible navigation. Performance is moderate with no explicit performance optimization scripts detected. Hosting appears to be on German name servers, consistent with the StockFood brand origin, though the domain targets Brazil. No CMS is explicitly detected. The site lacks advanced analytics or tracking scripts in the provided HTML, suggesting minimal user tracking. Overall, the technical infrastructure is stable but could benefit from modernization and enhanced performance tuning.
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.
