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

4 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.

    • 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  2. 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

  3. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Domain Expires Soon

      Domain expires in 0 days

      What to do: Renew domain registration before expiration

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 operates in the manufacturing sector with a focus on core materials for composites used in renewable energy, marine, rail, aerospace, automotive, and construction markets. Their business model centers on product innovation, sustainability, and engineering support services. The presence of multiple global locations and an ESG report indicates a commitment to corporate responsibility and environmental stewardship. The website's integration with partner domains like my-airex.com suggests a collaborative ecosystem. Marketing efforts leverage major analytics and retargeting platforms, targeting industrial clients and partners. The lack of direct company emails on the site suggests a preference for contact via forms or phone. The hidden suspicious links appear unrelated to the business and likely represent injected spam content, which should be addressed.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with anonymized IP tracking in Google Analytics, uses CSRF tokens in forms, and avoids exposing sensitive data. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is published, which limits transparency. The hidden spam links pose a minor reputational risk and should be removed. Overall, the security posture is good but can be improved by implementing recommended headers, cookie consent mechanisms, and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  2. Add a visible cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to enhance privacy compliance.
  3. Publish an incident response policy and provide a dedicated security contact email.
  4. Remove hidden suspicious external links to adult content to protect brand reputation and SEO integrity.
  5. Investigate and resolve the missing WHOIS data to improve domain registration transparency and trust.

  6. No cookie consent banner or explicit cookie policy found, which may be a compliance gap.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Craft CMS and uses modern frontend technologies including Swiper.js for sliders and Font Awesome for icons. It integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and LinkedIn Insight Tag, indicating a mature marketing infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive images and good accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed by optimizing scripts and assets. The presence of hidden spam links suggests a need for security review of the CMS and hosting environment to prevent unauthorized content injection.
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.
