Partial score · DNS & email only

37/100

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

Alupress AG is a medium-sized manufacturing company specializing in automotive aluminum die casting components and full-service system solutions. Founded in 1965 and headquartered in Brixen, Italy, the company offers a comprehensive range of services from in-house development to aftermarket support. The website reflects a professional B2B focus with detailed service descriptions and multilingual support. Technically, the site is built on TYPO3 CMS and uses Matomo and Facebook Pixel for analytics and marketing. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS is a critical security shortfall that undermines user trust and data protection. The cookie consent mechanism and privacy policy indicate good GDPR compliance. Overall, the site is well-structured and content-rich but requires urgent security improvements.

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. 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

      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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Alupress AG holds a strong position as a supplier to the automotive industry with a focus on quality and innovation in aluminum die casting. Their business model centers on providing end-to-end system solutions, including development, tooling, production, and aftermarket services. The company targets automotive manufacturers and partners requiring precision components and advanced manufacturing technologies. Their digital presence supports lead generation and brand awareness through social media and content marketing. The company demonstrates commitment to quality standards and certifications relevant to automotive manufacturing. Growth potential lies in expanding technological capabilities and enhancing digital security to meet modern compliance standards.

Security posture

The website's security posture is weak due to the lack of a valid SSL certificate and absence of HTTPS, exposing users to potential data interception risks. While security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are present, the overall SSL/TLS configuration is inadequate with no modern protocols enabled. No HSTS or OCSP stapling is configured, and session resumption is disabled. The contact form uses CAPTCHA to mitigate spam, but the lack of HTTPS compromises secure data transmission. There is no visible security policy or incident response information, which limits transparency and preparedness. Addressing these gaps is critical to protect user data and maintain compliance with GDPR and industry best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or 1.3) and configure HSTS to enforce secure connections.
  3. Implement OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve security and performance.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan accessible to users.
  5. Regularly audit and update security headers and cookie settings to align with best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a robust open-source content management system, indicating a mature technical foundation. The use of Matomo for analytics and Facebook Pixel for marketing shows integration of modern tracking tools with user consent mechanisms. The site includes responsive design and accessibility features, though accessibility is rated basic. Performance metrics are not provided but inferred as slow due to missing load time data and resource counts. The server runs Caddy, a modern web server, but lacks proper SSL configuration. SEO is supported by meta tags and multilingual hreflang attributes. Technical debt is evident in the missing SSL and incomplete security configurations, which pose risks to business operations and user trust.
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.
