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

3 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. 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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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 holds a strong market position in the roofing manufacturing sector, particularly in the Benelux region. Its competitive advantage lies in product quality and comprehensive system accessories. The presence of multiple country-specific domains indicates a broad European market reach. Revenue streams likely include direct sales to distributors, contractors, and end customers. The website content and structure suggest a mature digital presence with emphasis on customer education and professional support. Partnerships with regional sites enhance market penetration and brand consistency.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and integrates a cookie consent mechanism via Cookiebot, reflecting good privacy compliance. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy and HSTS is a notable gap. No forms on the homepage collect sensitive data, reducing immediate risk exposure. The WHOIS data is restricted due to DNS Belgium policies, which is common but slightly reduces transparency. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, indicating room for improvement in security communication and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan accessible to users and partners to improve trust and preparedness.
  3. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate risks from external libraries.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
  5. Consider publishing vulnerability disclosure and data protection officer contact information to align with best practices and regulatory requirements.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Neos CMS platform using the Flow PHP framework, leveraging modern JavaScript and asynchronous loading for performance. Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot are integrated for analytics and privacy compliance. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and clear navigation. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. The lack of visible hosting provider information and security headers suggests potential technical debt or configuration gaps. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional business presence but could benefit from enhanced security and accessibility improvements.
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.
