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

6 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

    • 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

UKDedicated operates in the technology sector focusing on hosting and colocation services. Their business model revolves around providing fully managed hosting solutions with expert UK-based support, targeting mid-sized businesses and IT organizations. Revenue streams likely include dedicated server rentals, cloud services, colocation fees, and managed hosting subscriptions. The company benefits from a strong partnership ecosystem including payment processors, security certificate providers, and hardware vendors. Growth indicators include long domain tenure and positive client testimonials. The company maintains a clear UK market focus with consistent branding and professional content.

Security posture

The company demonstrates a mature security posture evidenced by ISO 27001 certification and domain transfer lock status. However, the absence of DNSSEC and lack of visible security headers or vulnerability disclosure policies indicate areas for improvement. The website uses HTTPS and secure forms but lacks a cookie consent mechanism despite tracking scripts, which may pose compliance risks. Incident response readiness is not publicly documented. Overall, the security culture appears solid but could benefit from enhanced transparency and compliance measures.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to improve domain name system security.
  2. Implement a visible cookie consent banner to comply with privacy regulations.
  3. Publish a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Add incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Review and implement security headers such as Content Security Policy and HSTS.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including Google Analytics and Chatlio for analytics and customer engagement. The design is responsive and SEO optimized with clear navigation. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or static site architecture. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts. Technical risks include lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers. Opportunities exist to modernize privacy compliance and enhance security transparency to reduce potential 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.
