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

deSter is a well-established company specializing in innovative and sustainable food packaging and serviceware solutions primarily for the aviation and food service industries. With over 40 years of experience, the company positions itself as a leader in sustainable product innovation, supported by recognized certifications such as the EcoVadis Platinum rating. The website reflects a mature business with a professional design, clear navigation, and a focus on sustainability and market growth through an online shop targeting small and medium enterprises. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with Elementor and employs modern analytics and cookie consent tools, indicating a good level of digital maturity. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, though there is room for improvement in publishing explicit security policies and enhancing security headers. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional but would benefit from adding privacy and security policy documents to improve compliance and transparency.

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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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

The company operates in the transportation and manufacturing sectors, focusing on sustainable food packaging for aviation and foodservice markets. Its business model includes B2B sales and an expanding online shop for smaller quantity purchases, signaling growth and adaptation to market needs. The EcoVadis Platinum certification places deSter among the top sustainable companies, enhancing its competitive advantage. The website content and structure support a clear brand message focused on sustainability and innovation. The absence of explicit contact details on the homepage suggests contact information may be located on dedicated pages. The company appears to maintain a consistent branding strategy and leverages digital marketing and analytics tools effectively.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring encrypted communications. Cookie consent is managed via OneTrust, demonstrating compliance with privacy regulations. However, the site lacks explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. No security policy or incident response information is published, which is a gap in transparency and preparedness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of modern CMS and plugins suggests regular updates, but explicit vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are absent. Overall, the security posture is good but could be strengthened with additional policies and headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement and verify security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Create and publish a security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and preparedness.
  4. Add a vulnerability disclosure page or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Ensure contact information including emails and phone numbers are clearly accessible to improve user support and credibility.

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform using Elementor for page building and Yoast SEO for search optimization. It uses jQuery and includes scripts for analytics (Piwik PRO and Google Tag Manager) and cookie consent (OneTrust). The site loads a hosted background video and uses responsive design techniques for mobile optimization. Performance is moderate, with no critical errors detected. Accessibility features are basic but present. The site lacks some advanced security headers and explicit privacy/legal documents, which are areas for technical improvement. Hosting provider details are not explicitly disclosed. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and functional website with room for security and compliance enhancements.
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.
