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

6 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 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. 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

  3. 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 targets industrial clients requiring explosion protection in hazardous environments, leveraging a B2B eCommerce model to distribute specialized products. Their competitive advantage lies in their certification credentials (IECEx, ATEX), exclusive North American sales rights, and integrated training resources. Revenue streams likely include product sales and training services. The partnership ecosystem includes BARTEC Group entities and BARTEC Academy. The website's content and structure support efficient customer navigation and product discovery, indicating a focus on customer experience and operational efficiency.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer lock status. However, the absence of DNSSEC and lack of published security policies or incident response contacts represent gaps. The use of multiple third-party analytics and marketing scripts introduces a moderate tracking footprint, mitigated by a cookie consent mechanism. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. The security score reflects these strengths and gaps, recommending improvements in domain security and transparency of security practices.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance domain name system security and prevent DNS spoofing.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Review and minimize third-party tracking scripts to reduce privacy risks and improve compliance.
  5. Regularly audit and update all third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on BigCommerce, leveraging the Stencil theme framework and modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery. It integrates multiple analytics platforms including Google Analytics 4, Matomo, and Hotjar, alongside marketing tools like Google Tag Manager and Elfsight widgets. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and uses CDN resources for performance. Accessibility features are basic but present. The technical infrastructure supports a professional eCommerce experience with moderate loading speeds. Opportunities exist to enhance accessibility and streamline third-party integrations to reduce technical debt and improve privacy 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.
