James Hardie Europe GmbH operates the Bodenplaner website, providing building materials and related services under the Fermacell brand. The company is a large multinational with a strong presence in Europe and the USA, serving a broad audience including customers, suppliers, architects, and contractors. The website offers a floor planning tool and comprehensive privacy information, reflecting a mature business with established GDPR compliance. Technically, the site uses common web technologies such as Google Analytics with IP anonymization, Google Tag Manager, and video.js, but lacks advanced CMS or modern frameworks. Security posture is moderate with cookie consent implemented but missing explicit security headers and DNSSEC. The domain is well-established since 2008, consistent with the company's history, and uses a reputable registrar without privacy protection, enhancing trust. Overall, the website is professional, GDPR-compliant, and trustworthy, though improvements in security headers, mobile optimization, and incident response transparency are recommended.

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
7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
Email security
SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.
Critical
No email authentication configured
Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing
What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately
High
No SPF record found
SPF helps prevent email spoofing
What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"
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"

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.

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

A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
The page loads a script from a compromised source

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.

Business context
Business profile
James Hardie Europe GmbH is positioned as a key player in the manufacturing sector for building materials, leveraging a multinational structure with multiple subsidiaries across Europe and the USA. Their business model focuses on B2B and B2C sales, supported by digital tools like the Bodenplaner. The company targets a diverse customer base including distributors, architects, and end consumers. The presence of detailed privacy policies and data protection officers indicates strong regulatory compliance. The company benefits from a broad partnership ecosystem within the James Hardie Group, enhancing operational capabilities and market reach. Growth indicators include a mature domain age and comprehensive online presence. Strategic observations suggest a focus on compliance and customer engagement through digital channels.
Security posture
The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with GDPR-compliant privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms. However, there is no evidence of advanced security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS, and DNSSEC is not enabled, representing areas for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of third-party scripts like Google Analytics is managed with IP anonymization, supporting privacy compliance. Incident response policies and security contact channels are not explicitly stated, which could impact readiness. Overall, the security culture appears compliant but could benefit from enhanced transparency and technical controls.
Recommendations
Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen site security.
Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan with dedicated contact channels for security issues.
Enhance mobile optimization and accessibility to improve user experience across devices.
Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.

Technical notes
Notes
The website uses a traditional tech stack with JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, Modernizr, and video.js, alongside Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. There is no detected CMS, indicating a custom or static site architecture. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of analytics scripts. SEO basics are covered with meta tags and viewport settings, but accessibility and mobile optimization are basic. Hosting details are not explicit, but DNS is managed via netnames.net name servers and the domain registrar is CSC Corporate Domains, Inc. The site could benefit from modernization efforts including improved accessibility, mobile responsiveness, and enhanced security configurations.
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.
