Medium risk. 3 critical or high findings in Security headers, GDPR outside view and 1 other check.
The Responsible Business Directory is a UK-based membership directory showcasing small and medium-sized businesses committed to responsible, ethical, and sustainable practices. It operates under the National Organisation for Responsible Micro, Small and Medium-Sized Businesses and is affiliated with the Organisation for Responsible Businesses (ORB). The directory targets consumers and businesses seeking trustworthy, community-focused companies that prioritize environmental and social responsibility. The business model centers on membership vetting and directory listings, positioning itself as a niche leader in ethical business promotion within the UK. Technically, the website employs modern web standards including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, Bootstrap framework, and Font Awesome icons. The site is responsive and optimized for mobile devices, with good SEO and accessibility basics. Performance is moderate with no major technical debt or errors detected. Hosting details are not explicit but the site uses HTTPS with excellent SSL configuration, ensuring secure communications. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses secure forms for search functionality. However, it lacks advanced security headers and does not provide explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Privacy compliance is adequate with privacy and cookie policies present, though a cookie consent mechanism is absent. Contact information is clear and trustworthy, enhancing business credibility. Overall, the website presents a professional, trustworthy, and well-structured platform for promoting responsible businesses in the UK. Security posture is solid but could be improved with additional headers and policies. Privacy compliance is good but could benefit from explicit consent mechanisms. The domain registration data aligns well with the business claims, supporting legitimacy. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, adding incident response information, and implementing cookie consent to further strengthen trust and compliance.
Scanned
NIS2 Art. 21(2)
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.

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.
Controls resources the browser is allowed to load
What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application
These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.
GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies
What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit
TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.
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
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.
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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.
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.
