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

Busch-Jaeger is a well-established German company specializing in electrical installation technology and smart home systems, boasting a 140-year history and a market leader position. The website reflects a mature digital presence with a professional design, clear navigation, and multilingual support, targeting professionals and end customers interested in smart building solutions. Technically, the site is built on TYPO3 CMS, uses modern JavaScript modules, and leverages Akamai CDN for hosting and performance. Consent management is implemented via Usercentrics, and Google Tag Manager is used for analytics with default consent denial, indicating privacy awareness. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities, though security headers and explicit security policies are not evident in the HTML. Business credibility is high, supported by the association with ABB Gruppe as the parent company. However, explicit privacy policy and terms of service pages were not detected in the provided content, which is a compliance gap. Overall, the website is professional, secure, and trustworthy with room for improvement in privacy disclosures and security header implementation.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

  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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Busch-Jaeger operates in the energy and manufacturing sectors, focusing on electrical installation and smart home technologies. Their business model revolves around manufacturing and distributing a wide range of products from switches to complex smart home systems. The company targets electricians, architects, and end users seeking smart building solutions. The website's structured navigation and product configurators indicate a customer-centric approach. The affiliation with ABB Gruppe enhances market credibility and suggests a strong partnership ecosystem. The digital presence supports growth through online catalogs, live consultations, and community engagement. The absence of direct contact details on the main page may indicate a preference for controlled communication channels or localized contact points.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enforced and integration of consent management tools to comply with privacy regulations. The use of Google Tag Manager with default denial of ad and analytics storage shows privacy-conscious tracking practices. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML snippet. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options in the HTML is a minor concern, possibly mitigated at the server level. There is no published security policy or incident response contact, which could improve transparency and readiness. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found, limiting external security engagement. Overall, the site is secure but could enhance its security communication and header implementation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the main navigation or footer.
  2. Implement and verify security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a security policy page and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  4. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to engage with security researchers.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a robust and widely used open-source content management system, indicating a mature technical foundation. It uses modern JavaScript ES modules and lazy loading for performance optimization. Akamai CDN is leveraged for content delivery, enhancing global performance and availability. Consent management is handled by Usercentrics, integrating privacy compliance into the user experience. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and tracking, configured with default denial of ad and analytics storage, reflecting privacy-aware implementation. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and preloaded fonts for performance. No broken elements or errors were detected in the HTML snippet. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern, performant, and aligned with best practices, though some improvements in security headers and accessibility could be made.
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.
