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

ConVista Consulting AG is a leading SAP and IT consulting firm based in Germany, specializing in digital transformation across multiple industries including insurance, energy, healthcare, and manufacturing. The company offers comprehensive end-to-end solutions, combining deep industry expertise with technological innovation. Their market position is strong, supported by multiple industry awards and certifications such as SAP Gold Partner and Great Place to Work recognitions. The website reflects a professional and well-branded presence targeting enterprise clients seeking SAP and IT consulting services. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern optimization tools like WP Rocket and uses a variety of JavaScript libraries including jQuery and Swiper.js. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices and structured data enhancing search visibility. However, the technical infrastructure shows weaknesses in security, notably the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of TLS protocol support, which critically undermines secure communications. Security posture is currently basic, with several HTTP security headers implemented but critical SSL/TLS deficiencies present. Privacy compliance is strong, with clear GDPR-aligned privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms in place. Contact information is transparent and comprehensive, including phone, email, physical address, and contact forms. Overall, the site is trustworthy and professional but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and maintain credibility. Strategically, the company should prioritize obtaining and maintaining a valid SSL certificate and enabling modern TLS protocols to secure all communications. Enhancing security best practices will improve trust and compliance, supporting their strong market position and client relationships.

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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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

    • 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. Network security

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

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • 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
  • 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

ConVista operates in a competitive SAP and IT consulting market, focusing on digital transformation services for large enterprises primarily in Germany. Their business model centers on consulting, software solutions, and managed services, with revenue streams from project engagements and long-term client partnerships. The company targets sectors with complex regulatory and technological needs such as insurance, energy, healthcare, and manufacturing. Their competitive advantages include recognized certifications, a strong brand presence, and a comprehensive service portfolio. The partnership ecosystem includes SAP and other technology providers. Growth indicators are positive, with recent revenue increases and leadership expansions. The website content and client logos reinforce their market credibility and strategic focus on innovation and quality.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is low due to the lack of a valid SSL certificate and disabled TLS protocols, exposing the site to potential interception and man-in-the-middle attacks. While HTTP security headers like HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection are present, the ineffective SSL configuration severely limits their effectiveness. There is no evidence of a published security policy or incident response plan, and no dedicated security contact channels were found. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms are well implemented, indicating awareness of GDPR compliance. The absence of certificate transparency and OCSP stapling further weakens the security posture. Overall, the site requires immediate remediation of SSL/TLS issues and enhancement of security governance to reduce business risk.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS and secure user communications.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3) and configure strong cipher suites to protect data in transit.
  3. Implement OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve security and performance.
  4. Publish a formal security policy and incident response plan accessible on the website.
  5. Establish dedicated security contact channels (e.g., security@convista.com) for vulnerability reporting and incident handling.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on an nginx server with PleskLin control panel and uses WordPress CMS with multiple plugins including WP Rocket for performance optimization and Borlabs Cookie for cookie management. The front-end uses jQuery and Swiper.js for interactive elements and sliders. The site is well-structured with comprehensive metadata, Open Graph tags, and JSON-LD structured data for SEO. Performance metrics are not available but the use of WP Rocket suggests optimization efforts. Mobile responsiveness and accessibility features are well implemented. However, the lack of valid SSL and TLS support is a critical technical risk. DNS records are standard with no DNSSEC enabled. The domain is registered and consistent with the business identity. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional web presence but requires urgent security upgrades.
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.
