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. 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. 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

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

Videcom Security Ltd occupies a niche in the UK security integration market, leveraging long-standing industry experience and multiple certifications to build trust with public sector and commercial clients. Their business model combines hardware/software manufacturing with system integration and ongoing support services, creating diversified revenue streams. Partnerships with technology providers like Luxriot and wireless equipment manufacturers enhance their solution offerings. The company targets institutional clients requiring advanced IP CCTV and access control solutions, supported by AI and ANPR technologies. The website's structured data and social media presence indicate a strategic approach to digital marketing and customer engagement. Growth potential exists through expanding AI-based analytics and wireless network solutions. The absence of a terms of service or vulnerability disclosure policy suggests opportunities to improve governance and customer assurance.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate security posture with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, aligning with GDPR requirements. The absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, or X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, limiting transparency and preparedness signals. No exposed credentials or sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of third-party analytics and social media SDKs introduces moderate tracking but appears managed with consent. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for a small technology integrator but could benefit from enhanced header policies, documented security practices, and incident response readiness to mitigate risks and improve stakeholder confidence.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Enhance mobile optimization and accessibility to improve user experience across devices and compliance with standards.
  4. Add a terms of service page to clarify user rights and responsibilities.
  5. Regularly review third-party scripts and analytics tools to minimize privacy risks and ensure compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a traditional HTML/CSS/JavaScript stack with jQuery and several UI enhancement libraries such as FlexSlider and Tooltipster. Google Analytics and Facebook SDK are used for analytics and marketing. The site uses canonical URLs and Open Graph metadata for SEO and social sharing. Hosting appears stable with domain registration dating back to 2000, indicating low technical risk from infrastructure perspective. Performance is moderate with room for improvement in mobile responsiveness and accessibility. No CMS or modern frameworks detected, suggesting a custom or legacy build. Technical debt may exist due to older libraries but no critical vulnerabilities were identified. Opportunities exist to modernize front-end technologies and improve security headers and compliance documentation.
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.
