Dayton Group is a well-established food solutions provider with a century-long history, operating primarily in the Baltic region and Finland.

Their market position is strong regionally, supported by multiple subsidiaries and a consistent brand presence. The website reflects a professional business with clear service offerings and contact channels. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with Bootstrap and uses standard analytics tools, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity.

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

10 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

  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

  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
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  4. 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"

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.

Add-on

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 multiple Baltic countries and Finland, targeting B2B customers in retail, manufacturing, and HoReCa sectors. Their business model focuses on equipment sales, spare parts, service, and project planning. The presence of certifications and trust seals supports their credibility. The website content and structure indicate a medium-sized enterprise with a stable market position and a long operational history. The partnership ecosystem includes regional subsidiaries with dedicated domains. Growth indicators include recent news updates and active LinkedIn presence. The company leverages standard marketing and analytics tools but lacks visible privacy compliance mechanisms.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS and standard security practices but lacks security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options. No incident response or security policy information is provided, which limits transparency in case of security events. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file indicates a gap in security maturity. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The use of third-party plugins like Contact Form 7 and Yoast SEO requires ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved with better headers, policies, and incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with visible links on the website.
  2. Add security headers such as CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Establish and publish an incident response policy and contact channels for security issues.
  4. Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability scans of third-party plugins and themes.
  5. Improve accessibility features and provide clear GDPR compliance indicators.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for scripting. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are used for user tracking. The site has a moderate performance profile with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility. SEO is enhanced by Yoast SEO plugin, with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. However, no advanced security headers or modern security frameworks are detected. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified. The site structure and navigation are clear and user-friendly. There is an opportunity to modernize by adding security best practices and improving privacy compliance.
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.
