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

Tuntum Housing Association is a well-established non-profit social housing provider based in Nottingham, UK, serving the East Midlands region. The organization focuses on delivering affordable, good quality homes and support services to people in housing need, including low-income individuals and vulnerable groups. Their market position is that of a trusted regional social landlord with a history dating back to 1998. Key services include homes to rent and buy, supported housing, independent living, and homelessness support. The website reflects a professional and community-focused business model with clear target audience engagement. Technically, the website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using Elementor and Yoast SEO plugins, ensuring good SEO and user experience. The site uses HTTPS with strong SSL configuration, integrates Google Analytics for visitor insights, and employs CookieYes for GDPR-compliant cookie consent management. The site is moderately performant and mobile-optimized, though accessibility features are basic. From a security perspective, the website demonstrates good practices such as HTTPS enforcement, cookie consent with detailed categories, and Google reCAPTCHA integration. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, some security headers could be improved for enhanced protection. Privacy compliance is strong with a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie management. Overall, the website and domain exhibit high legitimacy and trustworthiness, supported by consistent WHOIS data and a long domain age. The site is safe for general audiences with no adult or questionable content. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, improving accessibility, and adding explicit security and incident response policies to further strengthen the security posture.

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. 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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • 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
  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 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';…

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

Tuntum Housing Association operates as a social business focused on affordable housing and community support in the East Midlands. Their competitive advantage lies in their long-standing presence since 1998, community roots, and comprehensive tenant services. Revenue streams likely include rental income, government grants, and social housing funding. The target customer segments are low-income individuals, vulnerable populations, and those seeking affordable housing solutions. Growth indicators include ongoing housing developments and community projects. The partnership ecosystem includes social media engagement and collaboration with local authorities. The company maintains a professional online presence with clear navigation and relevant content supporting tenant engagement and transparency.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is good, with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place. The use of Google reCAPTCHA helps mitigate spam and bot attacks. No exposed credentials or sensitive data were found in the HTML content. Compliance with GDPR is evident through detailed cookie categories and privacy notices. However, the absence of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not explicitly documented on the site, which could be enhanced to improve overall security posture.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish explicit security and incident response policies to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Enhance website accessibility to meet higher standards for users with disabilities.
  4. Maintain regular updates of WordPress core and plugins to reduce vulnerability risks.
  5. Consider adding a dedicated data protection officer contact and vulnerability disclosure policy to strengthen compliance and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website infrastructure is based on WordPress 7.0 with Elementor page builder and Yoast SEO plugin, indicating a modern and SEO-friendly setup. The use of Bootstrap and Font Awesome enhances design and iconography. Google Analytics is integrated for traffic analysis, and CookieYes manages cookie consent effectively. Hosting is provided by GoDaddy.com, LLC, a reputable registrar and hosting provider. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in security headers and accessibility could reduce risks and improve user experience. The site uses multiple external resources including CDN for fonts and scripts, which supports performance but requires monitoring for third-party risks.
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.
