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

dbx is a well-established professional audio brand specializing in modular processors, loudspeaker management, and audio accessories. The company operates under the Harman Professional Solutions umbrella, leveraging a strong market position and a legacy dating back to 1995. Their website reflects a mature business with a clear focus on audio professionals and businesses requiring high-quality audio equipment. The product range includes the 500 Series modular processors and DriveRack loudspeaker management systems, supported by comprehensive multimedia content and customer engagement channels. Technically, the website employs a modern technology stack including jQuery, Google Analytics, and HubSpot marketing tools, hosted on AWS infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO and accessibility features, providing a positive user experience. Security practices include HTTPS enforcement, CSRF protection, and domain transfer restrictions, although there is room for improvement in DNSSEC and HTTP security headers. From a security perspective, the site shows a solid posture with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear privacy and cookie policies, including GDPR considerations. The domain WHOIS data aligns with the brand's history and legitimacy, reinforcing trustworthiness. Overall, dbx.com represents a professional, secure, and compliant online presence for a reputable audio technology company. Strategic enhancements in security transparency and DNS security could further strengthen their posture.

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. 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 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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  3. 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

dbx holds a strong position in the professional audio equipment market, targeting audio engineers and businesses needing advanced audio processing solutions. Their business model centers on manufacturing and selling hardware and software products, supported by a global distribution network under Harman International. The company benefits from partnerships with other Harman brands such as AKG and JBL, enhancing its ecosystem. Revenue streams likely include product sales, software, training, and support services. The website's comprehensive product catalog and multimedia content indicate a mature marketing strategy aimed at professional users. Growth indicators include recent news updates and active social media engagement. The partnership ecosystem is robust, with multiple related domains linked to Harman's professional audio portfolio.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protections in place. CSRF tokens in forms indicate attention to input security. However, the lack of DNSSEC and additional HTTP security headers suggests opportunities for improvement. No incident response or security policy information is published, which could hinder rapid response to security events. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms are present and appear GDPR compliant. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from enhanced transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to protect against DNS spoofing and improve DNS security.
  2. Implement additional HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of jQuery, jQuery UI, Modernizr, and Slick Slider for frontend interactivity and UI components. Google Analytics and HubSpot provide analytics and marketing automation capabilities. Hosting is on AWS infrastructure, indicated by DNS nameservers. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO metadata and structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine understanding. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts and optimized images. Accessibility is basic but present. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Overall, the technical implementation is solid with room for modernization in frameworks and security headers.
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.
