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. 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.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: LinkedIn, YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

AGC Automotive operates within the transportation and manufacturing sectors, leveraging over a century of technological innovation under the AGC Group umbrella. Its business model is primarily B2B, supplying automotive manufacturers and aftermarket services with certified glazing products and advanced mobility technologies. The company demonstrates a strong commitment to sustainability and R&D, which are key competitive advantages. The website's detailed sections on products, innovation, and corporate philosophy indicate a well-established market presence and a focus on long-term growth. The lack of direct contact information on the website suggests a controlled communication strategy, possibly directing inquiries through corporate channels. The partnership with AGC Group and references to global operations highlight a broad ecosystem and international reach.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communications, and avoids exposing sensitive data in its HTML content. However, the absence of common security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options represents an area for improvement to mitigate risks like clickjacking and cross-site scripting. No vulnerable or outdated libraries were detected, and forms appear to be minimal or absent, reducing attack surface. The lack of an incident response page or security policy limits transparency regarding security practices. GDPR compliance is implied through the presence of a privacy policy, but the missing cookie consent mechanism could be a compliance gap. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with additional headers and explicit security disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen defense against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to ensure full GDPR compliance and enhance user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page with clear contact channels to improve trust and readiness.
  4. Verify and update WHOIS registration details to ensure domain transparency and reduce suspicion.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to maintain security hygiene and performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website utilizes a custom JavaScript-heavy front-end with multiple scripts prefixed by 'vista_', indicating a proprietary or in-house developed framework. Integration with YouTube's iframe API enables rich media content. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design elements and accessibility considerations. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph protocol, and JSON-LD structured data describing the webpage. No CMS or common frameworks like WordPress or Drupal were detected, suggesting a bespoke platform. Performance is moderate, likely due to multiple scripts and media content. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the HTML content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and modern web presence but could benefit from performance optimizations and enhanced security 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.
