The digital infrastructure includes modern tracking and consent management tools, ensuring compliance with GDPR and cookie regulations.

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

3 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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

Barum targets both B2C and B2B customers in the automotive tire market, leveraging Continental's reputation to position itself as a cost-effective alternative. The business model includes manufacturing and distribution through a dealer network, supported by digital tools for product search and advice. The presence of multiple localized sites and language options indicates a broad geographic reach. The partnership with Continental enhances market credibility. The website's content and navigation are tailored to facilitate customer engagement and sales conversion.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and integrates consent management for privacy compliance, reflecting a mature security approach. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content Security Policy and HSTS suggests room for enhancement. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is published, which could be improved to increase transparency and readiness. No exposed sensitive data or outdated libraries were detected. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from additional best practices and published policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers like CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen defense against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and customer trust.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to enhance domain legitimacy and trust.
  5. Continue monitoring and updating privacy compliance mechanisms to align with evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, a robust enterprise CMS, ensuring scalability and content management efficiency. Integration with Google Tag Manager and ConsentManager indicates a focus on analytics and privacy compliance. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and uses modern HTML5 and CSS3 standards. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed by optimizing images and scripts. Accessibility features are basic but present. No critical technical debt or deprecated technologies were identified, suggesting a well-maintained platform.
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.
