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

Actia is a well-established company founded in 1986, specializing in electronic diagnostics and multiplexed vehicle architecture across multiple sectors including mobility, aerospace, and energy. The company positions itself as a leader in its industry with a strong focus on innovation and technological excellence. The website reflects a mature digital presence built on WordPress with modern tools such as Elementor and Yoast SEO, indicating a good level of digital maturity. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place, although explicit security policies and incident response contacts are not publicly visible. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain www.actia.com is a notable anomaly that slightly impacts trust but does not detract from the professional presentation and business credibility of the site. Overall, the website is professional, secure, and compliant with GDPR, serving a B2B audience in transportation and energy sectors.

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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  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.

    • 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

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

Actia operates in specialized industrial sectors including public transport, aerospace, energy, and automotive diagnostics. Its business model is B2B focused, providing electronic manufacturing and engineering services. The company leverages a multi-local culture with several subdomains representing distinct business divisions, indicating a diversified portfolio. The website content and structure suggest a strong market position with emphasis on innovation and sustainability. The use of advanced analytics tools like Google Analytics and Hotjar supports data-driven decision making. The lack of visible direct contact information on the homepage may indicate a preference for controlled lead generation channels or localized contacts on subdomains.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and includes cookie consent banners, demonstrating compliance with basic security and privacy standards. Security headers are partially detected or implied but could be explicitly verified and enhanced. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The absence of a public vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file and lack of explicit incident response contacts are areas for improvement. Overall, the security posture is good but could be strengthened with more transparent security policies and incident handling information.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  2. Enhance HTTP security headers explicitly including X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Regularly audit and update WordPress and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider publishing a dedicated security policy page to increase transparency and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using Elementor page builder and Yoast SEO plugin, indicating a modern and flexible technical stack. It integrates analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics, Hotjar, and Brevo for email marketing. The site is mobile optimized with good accessibility features and SEO practices. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by the use of multiple plugins and external scripts. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified. The technical implementation supports a professional and user-friendly experience but could benefit from performance optimizations and enhanced security header configurations.
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.
