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

7 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

    • 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

  2. 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"

      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

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

The company maintains a medium-sized presence in the healthcare sector with a focus on pharmaceutical manufacturing and information dissemination. Its business model includes direct engagement with healthcare professionals through specialized content and services like DESICAMPUS. The website's multilingual support and international domain links suggest a broad European market reach. The company leverages social media platforms for brand awareness and customer engagement. While no direct contact emails or phone numbers are prominently displayed, the presence of a contact form and service center indicates structured customer support. The company appears to have a stable partnership ecosystem, including an international partner site, enhancing its market positioning.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforcement, cookie consent management, and password strength validation on user registration forms. The use of Borlabs Cookie for consent and Google Tag Manager with consent mode reflects compliance with privacy regulations. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and security headers suggests room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The security score is good but could be enhanced by publishing dedicated security documentation and implementing additional HTTP security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement HTTP security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency by including company contact emails and phone numbers for customer support.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform enhanced with BuddyPress for community features and Yoast SEO for search optimization. It uses Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for client-side scripting. The site integrates Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for tracking and marketing purposes, managed with Borlabs Cookie to ensure GDPR compliance. Hosting appears to be with Deutsche Telekom based on nameservers. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. The site uses modern fonts and preloads resources for improved loading times. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from additional security headers and performance tuning.
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.
