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

No critical or high findings. These medium findings are worth fixing next.

  1. 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.

    • Medium

      Missing Permissions-Policy header

      Controls browser features and APIs

      What to do: Implement a Permissions-Policy to restrict feature access

      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Permissions-Policy: accelerometer=(), autoplay=(), camera=(), cross-origin-isolated=(),…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • Medium

      Privacy policy may not be GDPR compliant

      Privacy policy lacks explicit GDPR compliance elements

      What to do: Update privacy policy to explicitly address GDPR requirements and user rights

  3. 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.

    • Medium

      No MTA-STS Policy

      MTA-STS enforces TLS for email delivery

      What to do: Implement MTA-STS to prevent downgrade attacks

  4. DNS health

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

    • Medium

      DNSSEC Not Enabled

      DNSSEC is not configured for this domain

      What to do: Enable DNSSEC to prevent DNS spoofing attacks

      • CAPEC-142
      • RFC 4033
      • RFC 4035

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.

Add-on

Leaked records that mention accenture.de, from OffSeq Breach.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Accenture operates as a global enterprise with a strong foothold in Germany, targeting large enterprises and government agencies. Its business model centers on consulting and technology transformation services, supported by a broad ecosystem of partners and advanced digital tools. The website's navigation and content structure highlight a wide range of competencies and industry sectors, reinforcing its market leadership. The presence of multiple social media channels and marketing technologies suggests active engagement and brand consistency. The lack of direct contact information on the landing page is typical for large consultancies, likely directing users to dedicated contact or client portals.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with enforced HTTPS, modern security headers, and a cookie consent framework aligned with GDPR. However, the absence of publicly accessible security policies, incident response procedures, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates room for improvement in transparency and readiness communication. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The WHOIS data is unavailable, likely due to privacy protection, which is common for large enterprises but should be monitored for legitimacy. Overall, the security posture is strong but could benefit from enhanced public security governance disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security frameworks and controls.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ emails.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance transparency by including data retention policies and privacy compliance details.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking technologies to minimize privacy risks.

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, utilizing Adobe's marketing and analytics ecosystem including DTM Reactor, Target, and Personalization. It uses OneTrust for cookie consent and geolocation-based compliance. The tech stack includes jQuery and modern JavaScript libraries for UI and tracking. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags, Open Graph, and structured data in JSON-LD format. The site is professionally designed with consistent branding and clear navigation, supporting a high-quality user experience. Opportunities exist to improve hosting transparency and reduce reliance on multiple third-party tracking domains.
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.
