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

Wieland Austria Ges.m.b.H. is a well-established manufacturing company specializing in copper tubes and semi-finished and finished copper alloy products. Founded in 1904 and part of the global Wieland Group since 1999, it holds a strong market position in Europe with modern production sites in Amstetten and Enzesfeld, Austria. The company targets industrial and energy sectors, providing engineered products and services with a focus on quality and sustainability. The website reflects a professional digital presence with comprehensive content, certifications, and contact options. Technically, the site uses modern CMS and caching technologies but lacks a valid SSL certificate, which is a critical security concern. Privacy compliance is well addressed with a consent management platform and clear policies. However, the absence of incident response and vulnerability disclosure information indicates room for improvement in security transparency. Overall, the website is credible and professional but requires urgent SSL/TLS remediation to ensure secure communications and trust.

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.

  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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  2. 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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';…

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

Wieland Austria operates in the manufacturing sector with a focus on copper and copper alloy products, serving energy and industrial markets. Its business model centers on high-quality production and engineering services, supported by multiple ISO certifications that enhance trust and compliance. The company leverages a global partner ecosystem and maintains a strong digital footprint with localized career portals and resource tools. Growth indicators include a large employee base and multiple production sites. The company’s strategic positioning as part of the Wieland Group provides competitive advantages in scale and innovation. The website supports business credibility with detailed legal and contact information, downloadable certifications, and active social media engagement.

Security posture

The website’s security posture is currently weak due to the lack of a valid SSL certificate and absence of modern TLS protocols, which exposes users to potential interception risks. While security headers like HSTS are present, they are ineffective without proper HTTPS. The site uses consent management and spam protection on forms, indicating awareness of privacy and security best practices. However, missing DNSSEC, CAA records, and no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies highlight gaps in comprehensive security governance. The overall security score is low, and immediate remediation of SSL/TLS issues is critical to protect user data and maintain trust.

Recommendations

  1. Install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or 1.3) and configure strong cipher suites.
  3. Implement DNSSEC and CAA DNS records to enhance domain security.
  4. Publish an incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update security headers and privacy compliance mechanisms to maintain best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Ibexa Experience CMS version 4, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries and consent management tools like Usercentrics. It employs Varnish caching and Fastly CDN for performance optimization. The site includes Matomo and Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking, integrated with user consent. Despite these modern technologies, the lack of a valid SSL certificate and disabled TLS protocols severely impact security and potentially performance. The site is mobile optimized with good navigation and SEO practices but lacks accessibility features beyond basic compliance. Performance metrics were not available, but caching and CDN usage suggest moderate to good performance potential. Technical debt is evident in the SSL configuration and missing DNS security features.
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.
