Risk levelHigh

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

Cerabella is a German-based retailer specializing in high-quality ceramic tiles and related accessories, operating under the EUROBAUSTOFF Handelsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG umbrella. The company targets both retail customers and professional tile buyers, offering a broad product range including floor and wall tiles, mosaics, and tile accessories. The website reflects a well-structured and professionally designed digital presence, leveraging TYPO3 CMS and Bootstrap frameworks, with moderate performance and good mobile optimization. Matomo analytics is used for user tracking with a compliant cookie consent mechanism in place. Security posture is adequate but could be improved by implementing standard security headers and publishing explicit security policies. Contact information and company details are clearly presented, enhancing business credibility. No critical vulnerabilities or suspicious content were detected, and the site is fully accessible without WAF or blocking mechanisms.

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.

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

    • 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

  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 Strict-Transport-Security header

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

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

Cerabella operates in the retail sector, focusing on ceramic tiles and accessories, positioning itself as a specialist within the EUROBAUSTOFF group. The business model revolves around distribution through specialized dealers, supported by tools like a dealer locator and planning tool. The company benefits from partnerships with renowned manufacturers and design studios, emphasizing quality and design innovation. The website content and structure support a clear market positioning aimed at quality-conscious customers. While no direct revenue or growth data is available, the presence of comprehensive product categories and dealer support indicates a stable medium-sized enterprise with a solid market presence in Germany.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS usage implied by URLs and a cookie consent banner that respects user privacy preferences. However, no explicit security headers were detected in the provided data, and there is no published security policy or incident response contact information. The absence of vulnerable libraries and exposed sensitive data is positive. The use of Matomo analytics with opt-in consent aligns with GDPR compliance. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a retail website but would benefit from enhanced security controls and transparency to improve trust and resilience.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page and provide clear incident response contact channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ emails).
  3. Add a terms of service page to clarify user and business obligations.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance with standards and user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and CMS components to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS with the Bootstrap package, utilizing jQuery and Matomo for analytics. The hosting appears to be provided by infokom.info, a German hosting provider. The site shows good mobile responsiveness and SEO optimization with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate, with compressed CSS and JS assets loaded. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. No broken elements or errors were detected in the HTML content. The technical stack is modern and appropriate for a medium-sized retail business, though there is room for improvement in security headers and accessibility compliance.
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.
