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

CONTRONIX GmbH is a specialized Austrian company focused on gas detection, gas analysis, and safety technology solutions. Their website presents a professional image targeting industrial and commercial clients requiring stationary and portable gas warning devices, calibration gas generators, automation, and maintenance services. The company positions itself as a comprehensive provider offering everything from sensors to complete systems including control cabinets. The website content is primarily in German and serves the Austrian market. Technically, the site is built on the Contao Open Source CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, Rocksolid Slider, and GLightbox, providing a good user experience with mobile optimization and clear navigation. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS, uses cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR, and employs CSRF protection cookies. However, it lacks a published security policy and incident response contact details, which are recommended for enhanced trust and compliance. Overall, the domain registration data aligns well with the business claims, indicating legitimacy and a trustworthy presence.

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

12 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

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  2. 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

  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.

    • 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

  4. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: SMB

      Port 445 (SMB) is publicly accessible - SMB - Windows file sharing, high risk

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to SMB using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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 · found on this site
  • 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

The company operates in the energy sector, specifically in gas safety and analysis technology. It serves a niche B2B market with products ranging from stationary and portable gas warning devices to calibration gas generators and automation solutions. The business model is focused on manufacturing and service provision, including maintenance contracts. The presence of a support portal and online fault reporting indicates a customer-centric approach. The partnership with Ariba Network suggests integration into broader supply chain and procurement ecosystems. The company appears to be a small-sized enterprise with consistent branding and professional content, targeting industrial clients primarily in Austria.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented. The presence of Contao HTTPS CSRF Token cookies indicates protection against cross-site request forgery. No security headers were explicitly detected, and no vulnerability disclosure or security policy pages were found. Incident response contact channels are absent. The use of Matomo analytics is privacy-conscious, storing data internally without external sharing. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business size but could be improved by publishing formal security policies, adding security headers, and providing clear incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a formal security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  2. Add incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures.
  4. Enhance website security by adding HTTP security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options.
  5. Improve accessibility features to meet higher standards and broaden user inclusivity.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Contao CMS platform, leveraging jQuery and several UI libraries such as Rocksolid Slider and GLightbox for interactive elements. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive images and a mobile menu system (Mmenu). Performance is moderate with no major issues detected. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured data in JSON-LD format, although the structured data is minimal. The site uses Matomo for analytics, ensuring data privacy by internal storage. No critical technical debt or outdated libraries were identified. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and security headers to enhance overall technical robustness.
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.
