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. 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Culligan Belgium targets both business and residential customers in Belgium, offering a range of water treatment products including water coolers and softeners. Their business model combines product sales with service and consumables supply, supported by an e-commerce partner site for ordering salt and accessories. The company leverages digital marketing tools and analytics to optimize customer engagement and lead generation. Their multilingual approach and sector-specific offerings (e.g., hospitality, manufacturing) suggest a strategic focus on diverse market segments. The absence of detailed company registration data in WHOIS is mitigated by strong website trust signals and social media presence, indicating a legitimate and established business.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a good SSL configuration and integrates security best practices such as reCAPTCHA on forms and cookie consent via OneTrust. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not evident in the HTML source, representing an area for enhancement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency in security governance. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from formalized policies and additional HTTP security headers to strengthen defenses against common web threats.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness for security incidents.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party plugins and libraries to prevent vulnerabilities from outdated components.
  4. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure by security researchers.
  5. Enhance monitoring and logging capabilities to detect and respond to potential security threats promptly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with Bootstrap framework and uses jQuery 3.6.0 for frontend interactions. It integrates multiple third-party marketing and analytics tools including HubSpot, Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, and OneTrust for cookie consent management. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with preloading of CSS and JS assets to improve load times. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, supporting a professional user experience. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified from the HTML content. There is no evidence of technical debt or deprecated technologies, indicating a well-managed 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.
