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

The company operates in the energy and transportation sectors, providing machinery and power solutions primarily to Swiss construction and industrial clients. Its business model focuses on equipment sales and rental, complemented by emergency power services. The website's integration with multiple advertising and analytics platforms indicates active marketing and data-driven decision-making. The absence of explicit contact details and privacy policies suggests potential areas for compliance enhancement. The domain registration data aligns well with the company's Swiss identity, supporting legitimacy and trustworthiness. The company appears to maintain a consistent brand presence and leverages trusted third-party services for analytics and advertising.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security foundation with HTTPS enabled and the use of security best practices such as cookie consent management and privacy-respecting analytics (Matomo). No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. However, the lack of explicit security policies and incident response contacts limits transparency and preparedness perception. The site could benefit from explicitly publishing security headers and formalizing incident response procedures. Compliance with GDPR is partially addressed through cookie consent but would be strengthened by a comprehensive privacy policy and data protection officer contact information.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page linked prominently on the website.
  2. Add a terms of service page to clarify user agreements and liabilities.
  3. Include clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for customer and security inquiries.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users.
  5. Explicitly implement and document security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by TYPO3 CMS, a robust and scalable content management system. It uses Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot for tag and consent management, and Matomo for analytics, indicating a modern and privacy-conscious tech stack. Hosting appears to leverage Cloudflare services for CDN and security. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. The site includes preloading of fonts and uses compressed CSS assets, contributing to efficient loading. However, some accessibility and SEO improvements could be made. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and secure online presence with opportunities for further modernization and compliance enhancements.
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.
