88/100

Risk levelLow

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

Danfoss is a global enterprise specializing in engineering solutions that enhance machine productivity, reduce emissions, lower energy consumption, and enable electrification. The company positions itself as a family-owned business focused on long-term stakeholder value, targeting industrial and commercial sectors primarily in energy and transportation. The website reflects a mature digital presence with comprehensive content, strong branding, and professional design. Technically, the site leverages modern technologies including Google Tag Manager, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, Microsoft ASP.NET, and Auth0 for authentication, indicating a robust and scalable infrastructure. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and use of secure third-party services, though explicit security headers could be verified further. Privacy compliance is well addressed with detailed cookie consent mechanisms and comprehensive privacy policies. However, the absence of WHOIS registration data is a notable anomaly that slightly impacts trust but does not detract from the overall legitimacy given the professional web presence and trusted integrations. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security header transparency, publishing incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies, and improving direct contact information visibility.

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

1 finding 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.

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

Danfoss operates as an essential entity in the energy and transportation sectors, offering B2B engineering and manufacturing solutions. Its market position is that of a global leader with a family-owned heritage, emphasizing sustainability and electrification. The business model focuses on delivering value through innovative technologies that optimize energy use and reduce environmental impact. The company utilizes a partner ecosystem including Salesforce and Microsoft to support digital operations. Growth indicators include extensive global reach and adoption of advanced digital marketing and analytics tools. The website's content and structure support a professional image aimed at industrial clients and stakeholders.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS, secure cookie usage, and integration of trusted authentication services like Auth0. The cookie consent mechanism is comprehensive and GDPR compliant, reflecting strong privacy practices. No direct vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of explicit security policy pages and incident response information suggests room for improvement in transparency and preparedness. The missing WHOIS data is a concern for domain registration trust but may be due to privacy protection. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by publishing more detailed security governance documents and implementing a security.txt file.

Recommendations

  1. Verify and explicitly implement all recommended security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a clear incident response policy and contact channels for security incidents to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Enhance visibility of direct company contact information including emails and phone numbers for better user trust and support.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and integrations to ensure no vulnerabilities or privacy issues arise.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack including ASP.NET Core framework, Salesforce Commerce Cloud platform, and third-party services such as Google Tag Manager and Auth0. Hosting appears to be supported by Cloudflare CDN and security services. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The cookie consent mechanism is implemented with a detailed overlay and category-based consent options, reflecting a high level of technical maturity in privacy compliance. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or enterprise-grade platform. Technical risks are minimal but should be monitored especially regarding third-party dependencies.
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.
