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. 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

  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 maintains a strong market position as a leading medical technology provider with a broad portfolio of healthcare products and services. Its business model focuses on manufacturing and delivering medical equipment and healthcare solutions globally. The website highlights key services such as customized kits, medication management, and training for healthcare professionals. The presence of a dedicated career portal and extensive product catalog indicates a mature and well-structured organization. The company leverages partnerships and maintains a global digital presence with multiple country-specific domains. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers suggests a preference for controlled communication channels via forms and social media.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and includes CSRF protection scripts, indicating a baseline security maturity. Cookie consent management is implemented via Usercentrics CMP, supporting privacy compliance. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security robustness. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is published, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The security score is good but could be elevated with additional best practices and published policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish explicit security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen security posture.
  2. Create and publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Provide vulnerability disclosure guidelines and contact information to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Include data protection officer contact details to enhance GDPR compliance and user trust.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and improve user consent management.

Technical notes

Notes

The website utilizes Adobe Experience Manager CMS, supported by modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, GSAP, and Slick Carousel, ensuring a dynamic and interactive user experience. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is well addressed through proper meta tags and structured navigation. The use of Usercentrics CMP for cookie consent reflects a mature approach to privacy compliance. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. The technical stack is modern and suitable for an enterprise healthcare company, though opportunities exist to enhance security headers and streamline third-party integrations.
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.
