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

AllBytes GmbH is a specialized software development agency based in Germany, focusing on delivering tailored and agile software solutions primarily for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and startups. Their services encompass custom software development, web applications, interface and database development, as well as CMS solutions like Shopware and WordPress. The company positions itself as a reliable partner for digital transformation and process optimization, emphasizing flexibility, scalability, and security in its offerings. The website reflects a professional and comprehensive digital presence with clear service descriptions and client references. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using modern frameworks and plugins such as React, Angular, Vue.js, Yoast SEO, and hCaptcha for security. The site is mobile-optimized, SEO-friendly, and incorporates GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanisms. Performance is moderate with room for optimization, but overall the technical infrastructure supports a robust user experience. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses CAPTCHA to protect forms, indicating a good baseline security posture. However, there is no explicit security policy or incident response information publicly available, and security headers are not explicitly detected, suggesting areas for improvement. No vulnerabilities or suspicious activities were identified in the analysis. Overall, AllBytes GmbH presents a trustworthy and professional business with a solid digital footprint. The domain and WHOIS data align with the company branding, and the site complies with GDPR requirements. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing security policies, and adding vulnerability disclosure information to further strengthen trust and compliance.

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

3 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.

    • 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

  2. 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

  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

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.

Business context

Business profile

AllBytes GmbH operates in the technology sector as a full-service software development agency targeting SMEs, startups, and companies with specialized compliance needs. Their competitive advantage lies in delivering highly customized software solutions that provide flexibility and scalability beyond standard software offerings. The business model is project and service-based, including consulting, development, training, and maintenance. The company demonstrates growth potential through a diverse service portfolio and client references from various industries. The partnership ecosystem is not explicitly detailed, but the use of modern technologies and plugins indicates integration with established software providers. The company emphasizes agile development methodologies and customer collaboration, positioning itself as a responsive and innovative player in the regional software development market.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and form protection via hCaptcha. GDPR compliance is evident through cookie consent management and a comprehensive privacy policy. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and lack of publicly available incident response or security policy documents indicate gaps in transparency and defense-in-depth. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected, and no signs of malware or phishing were found. The security culture appears to prioritize user privacy and basic protection but could benefit from enhanced documentation and proactive vulnerability disclosure mechanisms to improve resilience and stakeholder trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information on the website to enhance transparency and preparedness.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve communication with security researchers.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party plugins and libraries to minimize risk from known vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance monitoring and logging capabilities to detect and respond to potential security incidents promptly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern technology stack including Java, Python, PHP, and frontend frameworks like React, Angular, and Vue.js. It uses popular plugins such as Yoast SEO for search engine optimization, WPBakery Page Builder for content layout, Slider Revolution for interactive sliders, Contact Form 7 with hCaptcha for secure form submissions, and Complianz for GDPR cookie compliance. The site is mobile-optimized and demonstrates good accessibility and SEO practices. Performance is moderate, with some opportunities for optimization in loading speed and resource management. The technical infrastructure is well-suited for a professional software agency, supporting scalability and user engagement, though improvements in security headers and hosting transparency could further enhance robustness.
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.
