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

Vanleles Diamonds is a luxury high jewellery house specializing in ethically sourced diamond jewellery, based in London, United Kingdom. The company positions itself as the world's first African high jewellery house, targeting affluent consumers seeking bespoke and bridal jewellery. The website reflects a high level of professionalism with excellent content quality and consistent branding, supporting its niche luxury market position. Technically, the website is built on the Squarespace platform, leveraging modern web technologies including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Mailchimp for marketing and analytics. The site is mobile-optimized and performs moderately well, with good SEO practices and basic accessibility features. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS but lacks several important security headers such as HSTS, CSP, and X-Frame-Options, which could be improved to enhance protection against common web threats. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are publicly available, indicating room for maturity in security governance. Overall, the website presents a trustworthy and professional front for the business, though the absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy. Strategic verification of domain registration and enhancement of security headers are recommended to strengthen trust and 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

4 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

  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 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';…

  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

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

Vanleles Diamonds operates in the luxury retail sector with a focus on high-end diamond jewellery and bespoke design services. Its market positioning as an African high jewellery house differentiates it in a competitive luxury market. The business model relies on direct-to-consumer sales via an e-commerce platform and physical appointments at a prestigious London location. The company leverages social media channels for brand presence and marketing. No parent or subsidiary companies are identified, indicating a standalone small business. The website content and marketing tools suggest a growth-oriented approach with emphasis on ethical sourcing and craftsmanship.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the lack of critical security headers such as HSTS, CSP, and X-Frame-Options reduces its defense-in-depth capabilities. There is no public incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which limits transparency and preparedness for security incidents. Privacy compliance is basic with presence of cookie banners and privacy policy, but GDPR-specific details are minimal. The absence of WHOIS data is a notable risk factor, potentially indicating privacy protection or registration issues. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could benefit from enhancements in header policies and incident readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Enable HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) header to enforce HTTPS and prevent downgrade attacks.
  2. Implement a Content Security Policy (CSP) header to mitigate cross-site scripting (XSS) and related attacks.
  3. Add X-Frame-Options header to protect against clickjacking.
  4. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and security collaboration.
  5. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure legitimacy and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Squarespace CMS platform, utilizing a modern tech stack including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Mailchimp, jQuery, and Typekit fonts. The site is well-structured with proper meta tags and Open Graph data for SEO and social sharing. Performance is moderate with some optimization possible. Mobile responsiveness is good, though accessibility features are basic. The site uses multiple external scripts and CDNs, which are standard for such platforms. No critical technical debt or vulnerabilities were detected in the visible code. Security headers are incomplete, representing a technical risk. Overall, the technical implementation supports a professional e-commerce experience but can be improved in security and accessibility.
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.
