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

Bang & Bonsomer is a well-established Finnish company specializing in the development and provision of smart additives and advanced material technologies across diverse industries such as food, construction, beauty, packaging, and more. With over 90 years of pioneering innovation, the company operates through multiple specialized business divisions and subsidiaries, serving a global B2B market. The website reflects a professional digital presence built on WordPress, incorporating modern SEO and analytics tools, and providing comprehensive contact information and cookie consent mechanisms. However, the absence of WHOIS domain registration data and explicit privacy policies introduces some trust and compliance concerns. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS and cookie consent implemented, but could be enhanced with additional security headers and formal policies. Overall, the site demonstrates a mature business with room for improvement in transparency and security documentation.

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

5 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…

  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.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Bang & Bonsomer holds a strong market position as a provider of smart material technologies with a diversified portfolio serving multiple industrial sectors. Their business model focuses on innovation, proprietary products, and distribution, supported by R&D expertise. The company maintains a broad partnership and subsidiary network across Europe and Central Asia, indicating a robust operational footprint. The website content and structure support clear communication of their offerings and corporate information, targeting industrial clients and partners. Growth indicators include active news updates and event participation. Strategic observations suggest a focus on sustainability and innovation as key competitive advantages.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and a cookie consent mechanism, reflecting baseline security and privacy awareness. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of security headers and absence of explicit security or incident response policies limit the overall security maturity. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found, which could hinder coordinated vulnerability management. Compliance with GDPR is partially indicated by cookie consent but lacks a formal privacy policy. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not evident from the site content. Enhancing these areas would improve risk management and stakeholder trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to strengthen site security.
  3. Establish and publicize an incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy, including a security.txt file.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct usability testing to improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using modern plugins like Yoast SEO and MonsterInsights for analytics. It leverages jQuery and Selectize.js for UI enhancements and uses CookieYes for cookie consent management. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Performance appears moderate with asynchronous script loading. No hosting provider details were identified. Technical debt is low, but opportunities exist to improve security headers and accessibility compliance. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and functional web presence aligned with business needs.
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.
