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

7 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 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

  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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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';…

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

The company holds a solid market position as a trusted IT service provider with a focus on digital transformation projects for both private and public sectors. Its business model revolves around providing end-to-end IT solutions, including consulting, development, and operational support, with a strong emphasis on agile methodologies and scalable team capacities. The partnership ecosystem with leading cloud and software vendors enhances its competitive advantage. The target customers are medium to large enterprises and government entities requiring complex IT projects. The company demonstrates growth potential through international projects and strategic partnerships. However, the absence of visible contact emails and phone numbers on the website may limit direct customer engagement. The website content and testimonials reinforce credibility and professionalism.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and a cookie consent banner, indicating basic compliance with privacy regulations. However, no explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are present. Security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others are not detected, which could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. No forms are present to collect sensitive user data, reducing attack surface. The integration of third-party analytics tools introduces moderate user tracking. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced by implementing security headers, publishing security policies, and providing incident response contacts to improve transparency and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to comply with standards and improve user experience for all users.
  5. Consider adding clear contact emails and phone numbers for customer support and business inquiries to improve engagement.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the eZ Platform CMS, leveraging JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Swiper.js for interactive elements. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are used for visitor tracking and analytics. Hosting is provided by Hetzner, a reputable German hosting provider, ensuring reliable infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good navigation clarity. Performance is moderate, with some opportunities for optimization. The absence of visible broken elements and the presence of proper meta tags indicate good technical implementation. However, the lack of detected security headers and limited accessibility features suggest areas for technical improvement to reduce risk and enhance compliance.
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.
