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. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  2. 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

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

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

Bosch operates in multiple sectors including transport, manufacturing, and energy, leveraging its global brand and extensive product portfolio. The business model focuses on innovation and sustainability, targeting both B2B and B2C markets. The company maintains a strong partnership ecosystem, including procurement and press platforms. Career and corporate responsibility content indicate a mature organizational structure with emphasis on compliance and sustainability. The website supports growth and engagement through clear communication channels and social media integration.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, privacy consent management, and no visible vulnerabilities. However, the absence of explicit security headers (e.g., CSP, HSTS) and lack of a published security policy or incident response contact represent areas for improvement. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure page was found, which could enhance transparency and trust. Overall, the security measures are adequate for the business context but could be strengthened to align with best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options.
  2. Create and publish a formal security policy including incident response procedures and contact information.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance contact information by including direct company emails or phone numbers for customer and security inquiries.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy and security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack with HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, including Google Tag Manager for analytics and a custom privacy consent framework. Structured data via schema.org enhances SEO. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good navigation and performance. No CMS or hosting provider was explicitly detected. The use of web components for privacy settings indicates a modern approach to user consent management. Performance is moderate, with opportunities for optimization in loading speed and resource management.
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.
