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. 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 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 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

  3. 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

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

ALBIXON holds a strong market position as a manufacturer and supplier of pools and related products, targeting both private consumers and business partners. Their competitive advantages include in-house production, innovation capabilities, a certified powder coating facility, and a broad product portfolio that includes pools, enclosures, pergolas, and technical accessories. The company emphasizes quality, long product lifespan, and timely delivery. Their partnership ecosystem in German-speaking countries enhances local service and support. The Red Dot Design Award for their MOOVER product highlights innovation and design excellence. The business model is primarily manufacturing and B2B distribution, with digital tools supporting customer engagement and sales. Growth indicators include extensive installed base figures (35,000 pools, 98,000 enclosures) and export to 70 countries. The company’s digital presence supports multi-language markets and includes a dedicated B2B portal, indicating a mature and scalable operation.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security posture with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security policy documentation and incident response contacts is a gap in transparency and preparedness. Security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were not identified, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. The use of third-party analytics and marketing scripts is managed with user consent, mitigating privacy risks. Overall, the security maturity is solid but could be improved by publishing formal security policies and incident response procedures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email).
  3. Implement and configure security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Consider publishing a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern front-end technologies including Bootstrap for responsive design, Owl Carousel for interactive sliders, and Lozad.js for lazy loading images, which improves performance. The CMS appears to be based on the Nette Framework, inferred from form naming conventions and URL patterns, indicating a custom or semi-custom backend solution. The site is mobile-optimized with good navigation clarity and SEO best practices such as meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD) for organization and FAQ content. Performance is moderate with some room for optimization. No hosting provider details were identified from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable web presence with opportunities to enhance security headers and accessibility.
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.
