Ceresit.mk is the official website for Ceresit in North Macedonia, a leading brand under the Henkel company specializing in high-quality construction materials such as tile adhesives, floor leveling compounds, waterproofing, and thermal insulation products. The website is professionally designed, localized in Macedonian, and demonstrates consistent branding aligned with Henkel's corporate identity. The technical infrastructure leverages modern web technologies including Adobe Experience Manager CMS, Adobe Analytics for tracking, and a robust cookie consent mechanism via OneTrust, indicating a mature digital presence. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and integration of customer identity and access management (CIAM) solutions, although explicit security headers and policies could be more visible.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  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. 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Facebook, YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

Ceresit operates as a significant player in the manufacturing sector for construction materials, leveraging the global reputation and resources of its parent company Henkel. The business model focuses on product manufacturing and distribution, targeting both professional contractors and retail consumers. The website's multilingual structure and links to multiple country-specific domains indicate a broad regional presence. The use of advanced digital marketing and analytics tools suggests a data-driven approach to customer engagement and market expansion. However, the lack of visible direct contact information and privacy policy pages may hinder user trust and compliance transparency. The partnership ecosystem includes Henkel's digital asset and datasheet management platforms, reinforcing product information accuracy and brand consistency.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforced and integration of modern identity management solutions. Cookie consent is actively managed, reflecting GDPR compliance efforts. However, explicit security headers such as X-Frame-Options and Content-Security-Policy are not clearly visible in the provided data, which could be improved to mitigate clickjacking and content injection risks. The absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from enhanced policy visibility and formalized incident response channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear and accessible privacy policy page to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Add explicit security headers like X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen protection.
  3. Provide visible contact information including emails and phone numbers for general and security inquiries.
  4. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly audit WHOIS data and ensure domain registration information is accurate and publicly available to enhance legitimacy.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, a robust enterprise CMS platform, and uses Adobe Helix RUM for performance monitoring. It integrates RAQN CIAM for user authentication and RAQN Commerce APIs for e-commerce functionalities, indicating a sophisticated technical stack. The site is optimized for fast loading with preloaded images and responsive design catering to mobile and desktop users. Accessibility features such as skip links and semantic HTML are present, enhancing usability. SEO is supported by structured data in JSON-LD format and comprehensive meta tags including Open Graph and Twitter cards. Cookie consent is managed via OneTrust, reflecting attention to privacy regulations. No major technical debts or deprecated libraries were detected, suggesting a modern and maintainable infrastructure.
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.
