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

2 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 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. 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

Audika's market positioning as a leading hearing care provider in the Netherlands is supported by its comprehensive service offerings and international brand presence. The business model focuses on retail and service delivery of hearing aids and related care, targeting consumers with hearing loss or hearing care needs. The company leverages partnerships and advanced marketing tools to maintain customer engagement and optimize service delivery. The presence of multiple social media channels and a detailed cookie policy reflects a commitment to transparency and customer interaction. Growth potential is supported by digital marketing and analytics investments, although no explicit financial or founding year data is available.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security foundation with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR. Security headers are partially implied but not explicitly documented in the HTML. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure program suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness. The use of third-party analytics and advertising cookies is managed with user consent, reflecting good privacy practices. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from enhanced policy disclosures and formal incident response channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and frameworks used.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and document standard security headers explicitly (e.g., X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options).
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Maintain transparency on data retention and protection practices beyond cookie consent.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack including Google Tag Manager for analytics, Visual Website Optimizer for A/B testing, and a professional cookie consent management system. The use of Sitecore CMS is implied by cookie names and structure, indicating enterprise-grade content management. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags, Open Graph data, and structured JSON-LD data for enhanced search engine understanding. The site uses custom fonts and responsive design elements to ensure a consistent user experience across devices. Technical risks are minimal, but ongoing monitoring of third-party scripts and cookie usage is recommended to maintain compliance and performance.
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.
