Established since 2004, the company targets SMEs and non-profit organizations primarily in Cheshire and the UK. The website demonstrates a professional market position with a focus on digital growth support and charity sector expertise. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including Bootstrap, jQuery, and multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics, HubSpot, and TikTok Pixel. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly with good content quality and navigation. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced, security headers present, and no exposed sensitive data.

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. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

  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

      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

Web Presence operates in the competitive digital marketing sector with a niche focus on inbound marketing and charity advertising. Their business model revolves around service provision to SMEs and non-profits, leveraging content marketing, PPC, and social media strategies. The company maintains an active blog and podcast, indicating content marketing maturity and customer engagement. Their partnership ecosystem includes major ad networks and marketing platforms, enhancing their service delivery. The lack of direct contact details may limit immediate trust but is mitigated by a professional web presence and social media engagement. Growth indicators include consistent blog updates and use of advanced analytics tools. Strategic observations suggest opportunities in expanding direct contact channels and publishing security and incident response policies to enhance trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers implemented. Use of reCAPTCHA on forms and cookie consent mechanisms indicate attention to data protection and bot mitigation. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure reduces transparency. Compliance with GDPR is evident through cookie policies and consent banners. The site uses multiple third-party scripts which should be regularly audited to prevent supply chain risks. Overall, the security culture appears adequate for a small agency but could benefit from formalized policies and incident contact information.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  2. Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance with standards.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate supply chain risks.
  5. Add explicit contact information for security incidents and data protection officer if applicable.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using Bootstrap framework and jQuery library, ensuring responsive design and compatibility. It integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools including Google Analytics, HubSpot, Zoho PageSense, TikTok Pixel, and Microsoft Clarity, reflecting a sophisticated digital marketing infrastructure. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and use of CDN-hosted libraries. SEO is well implemented with meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. The site includes cookie consent and GDPR compliance features. Technical risks include reliance on numerous third-party scripts which require ongoing monitoring. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical implementation supports the business goals effectively with room for performance optimization and enhanced 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.
