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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

Bräcker's business model focuses on B2B manufacturing and after-sales services within the textile machinery sector. Their competitive advantage lies in product quality, system expertise, and global support. The company leverages partnerships with related firms such as Accotex and Graf to enhance its ecosystem. The website's content and navigation cater to professional audiences, emphasizing innovation and customer success. Growth indicators include active career listings and global service centers. The digital presence supports brand trust and customer engagement, though direct contact details are limited to forms, suggesting controlled communication channels.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with enforced HTTPS, cookie consent for statistics and external content, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, it lacks advanced security headers and publicly available security policies or incident response contacts, which are important for transparency and trust. No vulnerability disclosures or security.txt files were found, indicating room for improvement in security communication. The use of Google Analytics is compliant with GDPR through consent mechanisms. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be enhanced by publishing explicit security policies and improving header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to strengthen defense-in-depth.
  3. Consider creating and hosting a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures.
  4. Enhance transparency by providing direct company contact emails and phone numbers for customer and security inquiries.
  5. Regularly review and update cookie and privacy policies to maintain GDPR compliance and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by TYPO3 CMS, a robust and widely used content management system, ensuring scalability and maintainability. It uses modern JavaScript libraries like Slick Carousel for UI components and Google Tag Manager for analytics integration. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and accessibility features, contributing to a positive user experience. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in asset loading and caching. No deprecated or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The technical stack supports the business goals effectively but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and performance tuning.
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.
