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

5 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. 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. 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

BTL Aesthetics operates a B2B and B2C business model focusing on non-invasive aesthetic treatments. Their competitive advantage lies in innovative technology and a comprehensive product portfolio. Revenue streams likely include device sales, training, and support services. The target customer segments include medical professionals and end patients interested in aesthetic enhancements. The company maintains an active social media presence and invests in digital marketing and analytics tools to optimize user engagement. The website's content and structure support lead generation through detailed contact forms and educational resources. No direct contact emails or phone numbers are publicly listed, indicating a controlled communication channel. The absence of public incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies suggests an area for potential improvement in transparency.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security foundation with HTTPS encryption, CSRF tokens in forms, and a robust cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. However, explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are not evident, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. No signs of exposed credentials, malware, or phishing were found. The site does not publicly disclose an incident response plan or security contact channels, which could be beneficial for handling security incidents. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be elevated by implementing additional HTTP security headers and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy.
  2. Publish an incident response and security policy page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards.
  4. Consider providing direct contact channels for security and abuse reporting.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack including Ruby on Rails, jQuery, Select2, and Google Tag Manager, ensuring dynamic content delivery and user interaction. Hosting is provided by WEDOS, a reputable provider. Performance is moderate with room for optimization, especially in loading external resources like fonts and videos. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design and accessible navigation. SEO practices are well implemented with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in accessibility and security headers could further strengthen the infrastructure. Overall, the technical foundation supports the business goals effectively.
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.
