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

5 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  3. 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 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

Tomahawk operates in the hospitality and tourism marketing sector, leveraging digital channels to help clients increase bookings and brand awareness. Their business model is service-based, focusing on digital marketing, website development, and creative services tailored to tourism businesses. The company benefits from strategic partnerships with industry bodies and technology providers such as HubSpot and Google, enhancing its market position. The presence of multiple case studies and certifications indicates a well-established client base and reputation. Growth potential is supported by a broad service portfolio and geographic reach extending beyond New Zealand. The company’s marketing ecosystem includes advanced tracking and retargeting tools, enabling data-driven campaign optimization.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security posture with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data. Use of reputable third-party scripts and secure form handling via HubSpot reduces risk. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents an area for improvement. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is published, which could enhance transparency and preparedness. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms align with GDPR requirements, reflecting good compliance practices. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be elevated by adopting additional security best practices and publishing security-related policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Consider establishing a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance direct contact options by providing verified company emails or phone numbers to improve trust and accessibility.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to maintain compliance with evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web standards including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, with integration of popular libraries such as Font Awesome and Owl Carousel for UI enhancements. HubSpot is used extensively for forms and marketing automation, indicating a reliance on a mature CMS and CRM platform. The site loads multiple external scripts for analytics and advertising, which may impact performance but provide valuable marketing insights. Mobile optimization is excellent, ensuring accessibility across devices. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization by reducing external script load and leveraging caching strategies.
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.
