Warren Hughes Ltd is a small, family-run bespoke joinery business based in Tiverton, Devon, UK, with over 30 years of experience. They specialize in custom wooden products including staircases, kitchens, timber framed homes, windows, and doors, serving both commercial and residential clients across the UK and internationally. The company emphasizes craftsmanship and has a portfolio including notable commercial projects. The website is built on the Wix platform, reflecting a moderate level of digital maturity with good mobile optimization and basic SEO. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced but lacks advanced security headers and formal privacy or cookie policies. The absence of WHOIS data raises concerns about domain registration legitimacy, though the website content and business information appear professional and trustworthy. Overall, the site presents a credible business but would benefit from improved privacy compliance and security practices.

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.
Email security
SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.
Critical
No email authentication configured
Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing
What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately
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
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"

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The company operates in the bespoke joinery sector, targeting architects, interior designers, and property owners seeking custom wooden joinery solutions. Their business model focuses on design, manufacture, and fitting of high-quality wooden products. The firm has a strong local presence with a physical factory and showroom, and a diverse portfolio including historic and commercial projects, which positions them well in a niche market. The website lacks integration with social media or advanced marketing tools, indicating a traditional business approach. Growth potential exists through enhanced digital presence and formalized compliance and security measures.
Security posture
The website enforces HTTPS and does not expose sensitive data, indicating a baseline security posture. However, it lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could mitigate certain web-based attacks. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, limiting transparency and preparedness. Privacy and cookie policies are absent, which is a compliance gap under GDPR. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a significant concern for trust and legitimacy. Overall, the security maturity is basic and improvements are recommended to enhance protection and compliance.
Recommendations
Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with user consent mechanisms to comply with GDPR.
Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve web security.
Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
Verify and update domain WHOIS information to ensure transparency and trustworthiness of domain registration.
Enhance accessibility features and SEO optimization to improve user experience and search engine visibility.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built using Wix's Thunderbolt framework and associated UI libraries, hosted on Wix infrastructure. The site loads multiple Wix static resources and scripts, indicating reliance on Wix's managed platform. Performance is moderate with good mobile responsiveness. Accessibility is basic with some focus ring and skip content features but could be improved. SEO metadata is present but limited to basic Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. No custom analytics or tracking services were detected. The technical stack is modern but constrained by Wix platform capabilities, with opportunities for enhanced security and compliance 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.
