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

Graphisoft targets architecture and construction professionals in Germany with its DDScad software product. The business model centers on software sales and support. The company leverages a modern CMS and integrates standard marketing and tracking tools. The website content is consistent and professional, supporting a strong market position in the BIM software sector. Lack of explicit contact details and privacy policies suggests potential areas for enhancing customer trust and compliance. No suspicious or unrelated domains are linked, indicating a focused business ecosystem.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Google reCAPTCHA and Cookiebot for bot mitigation and cookie consent, respectively. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options, and no public security or incident response policies are found. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are present. These gaps represent moderate compliance and security maturity issues, though no critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. Enhancing security headers and publishing security policies would improve the security posture.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy page to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add standard security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Provide clear contact information including company emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility.
  4. Publish a security policy and incident response contact details to demonstrate security maturity and readiness.
  5. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.7.4 with jQuery 3.7.1 and uses Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot for analytics and privacy management. Fonts include Proxima Nova and icons from Font Awesome 6.5.1. The site appears moderately performant with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Hosting provider details are not evident. The site uses multiple Google Tag Manager containers and reCAPTCHA scripts, indicating a mature marketing and bot mitigation setup. Some CSS and JavaScript are loaded asynchronously to improve performance. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and well-implemented with minor opportunities for optimization and enhanced accessibility.
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.
