Risk levelHigh

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

BYD Battery-Box is a business specializing in lithium iron phosphate battery storage solutions for residential and commercial energy applications. The company offers modular battery systems designed for backup power, off-grid use, and self-consumption optimization. The website reflects a mature business with multiple industry certifications and awards, positioning BYD as a recognized player in the energy storage market. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using Elementor and Bootstrap 4, indicating a modern but standard infrastructure. While the site is accessible and provides detailed product information, it lacks critical privacy and security policies, and security headers are missing, which could expose it to certain risks. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires improvements to align with best practices. The domain registration data is consistent and transparent, supporting the legitimacy of the business. Strategic recommendations include implementing comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, enhancing security headers, and adding clear contact and incident response information to improve trust and compliance.

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

9 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…

  2. 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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

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

BYD Battery-Box operates in the energy sector, focusing on advanced battery storage solutions. Their business model revolves around manufacturing and distributing scalable lithium iron phosphate battery systems suitable for various applications. The company targets residential and commercial customers, installers, and partners, emphasizing modularity and safety. The presence of multiple certifications and awards enhances their competitive advantage and market credibility. The website content and domain age align well with the company's claimed history and market presence. However, the lack of visible contact information and privacy policies may hinder customer engagement and regulatory compliance. The company appears to have a solid partnership ecosystem and a clear growth trajectory in the renewable energy storage market.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enabled but lacks essential security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options. No privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating potential compliance gaps with GDPR and other data protection regulations. There is no evidence of vulnerability disclosure or incident response information, which are important for transparency and security culture. The absence of security best practices like secure forms and input validation further reduces the security maturity level. While no critical vulnerabilities or malware indicators were detected, the site would benefit from implementing standard security controls and policies to mitigate risks and enhance trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add standard security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  3. Publish vulnerability disclosure and incident response information to improve transparency.
  4. Enhance mobile optimization and accessibility to improve user experience across devices.
  5. Include clear and verified contact information such as company emails and phone numbers.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with Elementor page builder and Bootstrap 4 framework, leveraging jQuery for scripting. Hosting appears to be managed via GoDaddy.com, LLC, as indicated by the registrar and nameservers. The site uses HTTPS but lacks advanced security configurations. Performance is moderate with standard external resources loaded from trusted CDNs. SEO optimization is basic with meta tags present but no advanced structured data or Open Graph tags detected. Accessibility features are minimal, and mobile responsiveness is basic. No analytics or tracking scripts were found, indicating minimal user tracking. The site structure is clear with well-organized content sections, but the absence of privacy and security policies is a notable gap. Overall, the technical infrastructure is stable but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security practices.
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.
