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

UKP Worldwide is a specialist service provider focusing on customs clearance for eCommerce parcels and mail to and from the UK, including returns management and duty reclaim services. The company targets businesses involved in eCommerce logistics, offering niche expertise in customs and returns processes. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image with clear business descriptions and social media presence, indicating a small but focused operation founded around 2019. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the Divi theme and common plugins such as Yoast SEO and Contact Form 7. It employs tracking and analytics tools like Microsoft Clarity and Google Tag Manager, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly but lacks advanced accessibility features. From a security perspective, the website lacks visible security headers and explicit privacy or cookie policies, which reduces its compliance posture. The WHOIS data is incomplete or unavailable, raising concerns about domain registration transparency. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected, but improvements in security best practices and compliance documentation are recommended. Overall, the website is functional and professional but would benefit from enhanced security configurations, transparent privacy policies, and verified domain registration information to improve trust and compliance.

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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  2. 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

  3. 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

  4. 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"

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

UKP Worldwide operates in a specialized logistics niche, providing customs clearance and returns management services primarily for eCommerce businesses dealing with UK imports and exports. Their business model is service-oriented, focusing on regulatory compliance and duty reclaim, which positions them as a valuable partner for online retailers and logistics companies. The company appears to be small-sized with a focused market presence in the UK. Their digital presence includes active social media channels, which supports marketing and customer engagement. However, the absence of detailed business registration data and contact information on the website limits transparency. There is no indication of parent or subsidiary relationships, suggesting an independent operation. The company’s competitive advantage lies in its specialization and tailored services for eCommerce customs clearance.

Security posture

The security posture of the website is moderate but has notable gaps. The site uses HTTPS, but no explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, or X-Content-Type-Options were detected, which are important for mitigating common web attacks. The lack of visible privacy and cookie policies indicates potential compliance issues with GDPR and other data protection regulations. No incident response or security contact information is provided, which could hinder timely reporting and handling of security incidents. The use of common WordPress plugins and tracking tools is standard but requires regular updates to avoid vulnerabilities. Overall, the site does not exhibit critical security flaws but should improve its security best practices and compliance documentation to reduce risk.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies clearly accessible on the website to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Verify and publish domain registration and company contact information to improve transparency and trustworthiness.
  4. Establish and display incident response contact channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email addresses) to facilitate security issue reporting.
  5. Regularly audit and update all third-party plugins and tracking scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities and ensure secure operation.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using the Divi theme, a popular and flexible framework for building professional websites. It integrates SEO optimization via Yoast SEO and uses Contact Form 7 for form handling. Analytics and user behavior tracking are implemented through Microsoft Clarity and Google Tag Manager, indicating a moderate level of technical sophistication. The site loads external fonts from Google Fonts and uses standard JavaScript libraries including jQuery. Performance is moderate with no explicit indicators of slow loading, and mobile optimization is good. Accessibility features are basic and could be enhanced. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the data. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
