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

AL-PRO GmbH & Co. KG is a specialized service provider in the wind energy sector, offering accredited wind site assessments, LIDAR wind measurements, and related consulting services primarily in Germany and Canada. The company holds recognized accreditations such as DAKKS and complies with FGW TR10 standards, positioning itself as a trusted expert in wind energy site quality determination. Their website reflects a professional and consistent brand image targeting wind energy developers and operators. Technically, the website employs a mix of legacy JavaScript libraries alongside modern tools like jQuery and Tiny Carousel. While the site is functional and moderately optimized for performance and mobile use, there is room for modernization and improved accessibility. The hosting and domain registration are managed by reputable providers, supporting the company's legitimacy. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and implements a cookie consent mechanism, indicating awareness of privacy compliance. However, the absence of modern security headers and the use of outdated JavaScript libraries present potential vulnerabilities. No explicit security or incident response policies are visible, which could be improved to enhance trust and readiness. Overall, the website is safe, professional, and compliant with GDPR requirements, with a solid business credibility score. Strategic improvements in security posture and technical modernization would further strengthen the company's digital presence and risk management.

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

8 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.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  2. 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

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

AL-PRO operates in the niche market of wind energy consulting, focusing on accredited wind site quality assessments and measurement services. Their competitive advantage lies in their accreditations and specialized software tools for site quality determination, which are critical for compliance with German EEG regulations. The company targets wind farm developers, investors, and operators requiring precise and bankable wind data. Their business model is service-oriented with a focus on quality and regulatory compliance. The presence of a Canadian subsidiary indicates international expansion and diversification. Partnerships with event organizers and weather services suggest a well-integrated ecosystem supporting their market position. Growth indicators include ongoing accreditation updates and participation in industry events. The company maintains a professional online presence with clear contact channels and service descriptions, supporting client acquisition and retention.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enabled, and a cookie consent banner is implemented, reflecting GDPR compliance. However, the lack of security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. The use of older JavaScript libraries like Prototype.js and Scriptaculous may expose the site to known vulnerabilities if not properly patched. No visible incident response contacts or security policies are provided, which limits transparency and preparedness in case of security incidents. No signs of exposed sensitive data or malware were detected. The minimal use of tracking and analytics reduces privacy risks but also limits insights into user behavior. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement modern security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to harden the website against attacks.
  2. Upgrade or replace outdated JavaScript libraries to reduce vulnerability exposure and improve performance.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to increase transparency and preparedness.
  4. Ensure SSL/TLS configuration follows best practices with strong cipher suites and certificate management.
  5. Enhance mobile optimization and accessibility features to improve user experience and compliance with standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of legacy and modern JavaScript libraries, including Prototype.js, Scriptaculous, jQuery, and Tiny Carousel, indicating partial modernization. The HTML meta tags are properly set for language, viewport, and content type, but character encoding declarations are inconsistent (windows-1252 and ISO-8859-1 both declared). The site includes a cookie consent banner implemented via JavaScript and CSS. Hosting and domain registration are managed by InterNetX GmbH, a reputable provider. Performance is moderate with image sliders and carousels enhancing user engagement but potentially impacting load times. Mobile optimization is basic, with viewport meta tag present but no advanced responsive design detected. Accessibility features are minimal, with no ARIA roles or landmarks evident. SEO optimization is basic, with meta tags but no structured data like JSON-LD or Open Graph tags found. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs but would benefit from modernization, improved accessibility, and enhanced SEO practices.
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.
