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

2 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. 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

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

The company operates in the manufacturing sector with a focus on industrial tools and equipment. Its business model revolves around manufacturing and distributing specialized equipment globally. The presence of multiple subdomains for different business units indicates a segmented approach to market verticals. The website content and structure suggest targeting professional and industrial customers. The lack of direct contact information on the homepage may indicate a preference for localized contact points or partner networks. The company shows good branding consistency and trust signals such as privacy compliance and structured data markup.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses modern security best practices including cookie consent management and CSRF protection scripts. No security headers were explicitly detected in the HTML content, suggesting room for improvement. There is no visible security.txt or vulnerability disclosure page, and no incident response contact information is provided, which could be a gap in transparency. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were found. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by publishing explicit security policies and contact channels for security incidents.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  2. Create and publish a security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Provide clear company contact emails and phone numbers for customer and security inquiries.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager CMS, using jQuery and other modern JavaScript libraries. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Adobe Helix RUM for analytics and performance monitoring. The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices including meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Hosting details are not explicit but external scripts are served from trusted CDNs. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization. The technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable web presence suitable for an enterprise-level manufacturing company.
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.
