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

3 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. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

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

Yozu operates a B2B business model focusing on software development and digital transformation services. Their competitive advantage lies in end-to-end service offerings from research and discovery to cloud hosting, supported by a skilled team and long-term client partnerships. The company leverages a partner domain (yozucreative.com) for design and branding services, indicating a diversified service ecosystem. Their target customers are businesses across multiple sectors including finance, manufacturing, healthcare, and logistics. The company demonstrates growth potential through active content marketing and social media engagement. No direct revenue streams or financial data are disclosed, but the professional presentation and longevity suggest stable operations.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, presence of key security headers, and use of modern security best practices such as lazy loading and CSP monitoring. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy, vulnerability disclosure program, or incident response contact limits transparency and readiness perception. GDPR compliance is evident through privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by formalizing security governance documentation and public disclosure channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact information, such as a security@ or abuse@ email address.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency by publishing data retention policies and privacy impact assessments.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS, hosted by Heart Internet, and uses modern front-end technologies including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and jQuery. Performance optimizations include lazy loading of scripts and images via WP Rocket plugin, and integration of Microsoft Clarity and Google Tag Manager for analytics. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. SEO is well implemented with comprehensive meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Technical risks are minimal, but continuous monitoring of third-party scripts and plugin updates is recommended to avoid technical debt and security vulnerabilities.
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.
