0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

BRANO GROUP a.s. is a large, well-established Czech manufacturer and supplier of automotive parts and systems, serving leading global automotive manufacturers. The company offers a comprehensive portfolio including tailgate closures, bonnet systems, seating, pedal systems, and commercial vehicle components. Their website reflects a strong brand identity, professional design, and detailed product information supported by multimedia content. Technically, the site uses modern frameworks like Svelte and Apollo GraphQL, with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and no visible sensitive data exposure, though security headers and explicit policies could be improved. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain trust verification, but the business content and contact information support legitimacy. Privacy compliance is basic with a cookie consent mechanism but no visible privacy or terms pages. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy with room for enhanced security and compliance transparency.

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. 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

  2. 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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

BRANO GROUP holds a strong market position as the largest Czech automotive parts supplier with a legacy of over 160 years in production. Their business model focuses on vertical integration from development to manufacturing, targeting automotive OEMs and commercial vehicle producers. The company emphasizes R&D, innovation, and quality, supported by numerous patents and advanced logistics. Their digital presence includes an e-shop and active social media engagement. The company appears financially independent and self-sufficient, with a clear focus on sustaining long-term partnerships and industry leadership. No parent or subsidiary companies were identified from the website data.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS and no exposed sensitive information. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of published security or incident response policies are gaps. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are present, which could hinder coordinated vulnerability reporting. The cookie consent mechanism is implemented, supporting privacy compliance. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by adopting additional headers, publishing security policies, and enabling vulnerability disclosure channels.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the website footer.
  3. Establish and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures and incident response.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet WCAG standards for broader compliance and usability.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and improve compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including Svelte for frontend rendering and Apollo GraphQL for data management. It leverages asynchronous JavaScript modules and preloads critical assets for performance optimization. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO metadata including Open Graph and Twitter cards. Hosting details are not explicitly identified, but the use of cloud storage URLs and AWS AppSync endpoint suggests cloud infrastructure. Performance is moderate with rich multimedia content that may impact load times on slower connections. No CMS was detected, indicating a custom or static site generation approach. Technical risks include reliance on third-party scripts and missing security headers.
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.
