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

We Are Johan is a small independent advertising agency based in the Netherlands, serving clients in the Netherlands, Belgium, and internationally. The company focuses on providing simple, creative, and effective advertising solutions including concept development, art direction, online marketing, and advertising campaigns. Their market position is that of a boutique agency with a strong creative approach. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with good content quality and clear navigation. Technically, the website is built on the Webflow platform, utilizing modern web technologies such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Google reCAPTCHA, and Typekit fonts. The site is mobile optimized and performs moderately well, though there is room for improvement in accessibility and SEO. Hosting is provided by Webflow, ensuring reliable infrastructure. From a security perspective, the website uses HTTPS with excellent SSL configuration and includes reCAPTCHA for form protection. However, it lacks important security headers and does not implement privacy best practices such as IP anonymization in analytics or explicit privacy and cookie policies. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which could be improved to enhance trust and compliance. Overall, the website is safe and professional, with no adult or questionable content detected. The domain registration data is consistent with the business claims, indicating legitimacy. Strategic improvements in privacy compliance, security headers, and transparency would strengthen the security posture and user trust.

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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  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 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

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

We Are Johan operates as a small independent advertising agency focused on creative and effective marketing solutions. Their client base includes businesses in the Netherlands, Belgium, and beyond, targeting companies seeking innovative advertising concepts and campaigns. The business model centers on providing bespoke creative services such as concept development, art direction, and online marketing. The agency leverages a modern digital presence via Webflow, positioning itself as a boutique player in the media sector. There is no indication of parent companies or subsidiaries, suggesting a standalone operation. The lack of explicit certifications or trust badges on the website suggests opportunities to enhance credibility. The Instagram presence supports brand engagement and marketing outreach.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is properly implemented with strong SSL configuration, and Google reCAPTCHA is used to protect forms from automated abuse. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security posture. Analytics configuration does not anonymize IP addresses, which is a GDPR compliance gap. No privacy or cookie policies are present, and there is no incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, limiting transparency and preparedness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. Enhancing security headers, privacy compliance, and incident response readiness would significantly improve the security culture and reduce risk.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear consent mechanisms to comply with GDPR.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to harden the site against common attacks.
  3. Enable IP anonymization in Google Analytics to enhance user privacy and regulatory compliance.
  4. Publish incident response contact information and consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerable libraries are included.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Webflow platform, utilizing modern front-end technologies including Google Fonts, Typekit, Lottie animations, and Google Analytics/Tag Manager for tracking. The site loads asynchronously external scripts for analytics and reCAPTCHA, which helps performance. The design is responsive and mobile optimized with good navigation clarity. However, accessibility features appear basic and could be improved. SEO meta tags and Open Graph tags are well implemented, supporting social sharing and search engine visibility. Hosting by Webflow provides reliable infrastructure but no explicit information on CDN or caching was found. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in script loading and accessibility compliance.
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.
