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

Stone & Chrome is a family-run business specializing in bespoke luxury bathroom design, supply, and installation, operating primarily in Surrey and surrounding areas. The company has established a strong market position, evidenced by multiple industry awards and a well-curated showroom experience. Their website reflects a professional and customer-focused approach, showcasing extensive portfolios, brand partnerships, and positive customer reviews. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with Elementor, incorporating modern web technologies and analytics tools, and is optimized for mobile and SEO. Security posture is good with HTTPS and cookie consent implemented, though the absence of a privacy policy and terms of service pages are notable gaps. The lack of WHOIS registration data introduces some uncertainty about domain legitimacy, but overall business credibility remains high based on content and trust signals.

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

8 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

Stone & Chrome operates in the retail sector, targeting homeowners and developers seeking high-end bathroom solutions. Their business model combines showroom retail with project management services, leveraging partnerships with premium brands to differentiate themselves. The company demonstrates growth and market recognition through awards and a strong online presence across multiple social media platforms. Their operational focus on bespoke design and installation services positions them well in a niche luxury market. The absence of detailed financial or founding year data limits deeper business intelligence insights.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and includes a cookie consent mechanism, indicating baseline compliance with security and privacy norms. However, the absence of published privacy policies, terms of service, security policies, and incident response contacts suggests room for improvement in transparency and compliance. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The use of third-party analytics and marketing tools is standard but should be accompanied by clear data retention and privacy disclosures. The missing WHOIS data is a concern for domain trustworthiness and should be addressed to enhance legitimacy.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement and disclose a security policy and incident response procedures to enhance transparency.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance HTTP security headers to strengthen protection against common web attacks.
  5. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration details to improve domain legitimacy and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform using Elementor, supported by jQuery and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. It uses a LiteSpeed cache plugin for performance optimization and integrates third-party widgets for customer reviews. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate, with potential for improvement by optimizing image loading and reducing external script dependencies. Accessibility features are present but could be further enhanced. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified from the data.
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.
