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

Vulcan Stove Enamelling Ltd is a small manufacturing business specializing in metal finishing services such as powder coating, stove enamelling, screen printing, phosphating, and blast cleaning. Established in 1973 and under current ownership since 1988, the company serves industrial clients including military, electronics, and sheet metal fabrication sectors. The website is currently under refurbishment but provides essential contact information and a brief company overview. Technically, the website is basic with static HTML and CSS, lacking modern frameworks or CMS. There is no evidence of HTTPS or security headers, and no privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating limited digital maturity and compliance. The absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy and trustworthiness. Overall, the site provides minimal but relevant business information with room for significant security and compliance improvements.

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

8 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. 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

  3. 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

The company positions itself as a quality-focused finishing service provider with a long history and diverse industrial clientele. Its business model is B2B manufacturing services with a focus on quality and fast turnaround. The lack of digital marketing, analytics, or social media presence suggests a traditional business approach. No partnerships or subsidiaries are indicated. The company’s market position is described as a top-quality finishing company, supported by client recommendations including military contracts. Growth and modernization opportunities exist in digital presence and compliance.

Security posture

The website exhibits a low security maturity level with no HTTPS detected, no security headers, and no visible vulnerability disclosure or incident response policies. The lack of privacy and cookie policies indicates non-compliance with GDPR and related regulations. No forms or data collection mechanisms reduce attack surface but also limit user engagement. The missing WHOIS data is a significant red flag for domain legitimacy. Overall, the security posture is weak and requires urgent improvements to protect business reputation and customer trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate to secure all website traffic.
  2. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and inform users.
  3. Publish a terms of service and security incident response contact information.
  4. Obtain and publish WHOIS registration data or verify domain registration status to improve trust.
  5. Enhance website accessibility, mobile responsiveness, and SEO to improve user experience and reach.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built with basic HTML5 and CSS without any detected CMS or JavaScript frameworks. There are no analytics or tracking scripts, indicating minimal data collection. The site is static with simple navigation and limited content. Performance is likely moderate given the simplicity but mobile optimization and accessibility are basic. The lack of HTTPS and security headers is a critical technical deficiency. The absence of WHOIS data and hosting provider information limits infrastructure assessment. Modernization with a CMS or framework and security hardening is recommended.
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.
