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

Superior Networks is a UK-based VPS hosting provider operating since 2013 under the parent company ATLAS Media Group Ltd. The company offers affordable KVM SSD based VPS hosting plans with a focus on high quality hardware, enterprise-grade data centers, and 24/7 customer support. Their market position is that of a niche hosting provider with over 400 clients, emphasizing service availability and instant provisioning. Technically, the website uses modern frontend technologies including Bootstrap, jQuery, and Font Awesome, hosted with Cloudflare DNS services. The website is mobile optimized and provides a good user experience, though performance is moderate. Security posture shows some strengths such as domain transfer protection and Cloudflare DNS usage, but lacks DNSSEC and explicit HTTP security headers. No privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating gaps in compliance. Overall, the domain registration is consistent with the business claims and shows legitimacy. Strategic recommendations include improving security headers, enabling DNSSEC, publishing privacy and cookie policies, and adding clear contact and incident response information.

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. 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';…

  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 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

Superior Networks targets individuals and businesses seeking VPS hosting solutions, offering competitively priced plans starting from £3.16/month. Their business model is service-oriented, focusing on VPS and reseller hosting with instant provisioning and full user access. The company leverages enterprise-grade hardware and data centers to differentiate itself. The parent company, ATLAS Media Group Ltd, is registered in England & Wales, providing a credible legal foundation. The website content and branding are consistent and professional, supporting trustworthiness. However, the absence of detailed privacy and security policies may impact customer confidence. The company appears to have a stable client base and a clear value proposition in the hosting market.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. The domain is protected against unauthorized transfers and uses Cloudflare DNS, which provides some resilience. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and no HTTP security headers (such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, or X-Frame-Options) are detected in the HTML content, which are important for mitigating common web attacks. There is no published security policy or incident response information, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is found. The lack of privacy and cookie policies also indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. Overall, while no critical vulnerabilities are evident from the content, the security posture can be significantly improved by adopting best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and configure HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  4. Add explicit contact information including security and abuse contacts for incident response.
  5. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using a modern frontend stack with Bootstrap 4.4.1, jQuery, Owl Carousel, AOS animations, and Font Awesome 6.7.2 icons. It loads external fonts from Google Fonts and uses Cloudflare as the DNS provider and registrar. The site is mobile responsive with good navigation clarity and professional design. Performance is moderate, likely due to multiple external scripts and large font libraries. No CMS is detected, suggesting a custom or static site. Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO optimization is basic with standard meta tags but no Open Graph or JSON-LD structured data found. There is room for technical modernization and performance optimization.
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.
