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

DYWIDAG Dyckerhoff & Widmann GmbH is a well-established construction company operating primarily in Austria and Southern Bavaria, specializing in general contracting and complex construction projects. The company holds multiple recognized certifications such as ISO 9001, ISO 45001, and compliance management certifications, underscoring its commitment to quality and safety. Their website reflects a professional business with a clear focus on construction services, career opportunities, and regional presence through multiple offices. The target audience includes construction clients and partners within the real estate and building sectors in Austria. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with common plugins and frameworks, including Visual Composer and Slider Revolution, and integrates Google Analytics and marketing pixels for user tracking. However, the site suffers from slow performance and outdated SSL/TLS configuration, lacking a valid HTTPS certificate, which is a critical security concern. Privacy compliance is well addressed with a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism and GDPR-aligned privacy policy. Contact information is clearly provided with multiple channels and locations. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and enhance trust.

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

9 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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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.

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 holds a strong market position as a regional leader in construction services with a focus on quality and safety, supported by multiple ISO certifications. Their business model revolves around general contracting, revitalization, and specialized construction services. The presence of a dedicated career subdomain and active social media channels indicates a focus on talent acquisition and brand building. The company leverages digital marketing tools and analytics to monitor user engagement and optimize outreach. Their partnership with integrity and whistleblower platforms suggests a commitment to compliance and ethical business practices. The company’s growth is supported by multiple regional offices, indicating a broad operational footprint within Austria. The website content and certifications reinforce their credibility and market reputation.

Security posture

The current security posture is weak due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support, exposing users to potential data interception risks. The lack of security headers and modern TLS protocols further weakens the site’s defense against common web attacks. While Google reCAPTCHA is implemented to protect forms from abuse, the absence of an incident response contact or vulnerability disclosure policy limits the company’s readiness to handle security incidents. Cookie consent and privacy policies are well implemented, reflecting good privacy practices. Immediate remediation of SSL/TLS issues and enhancement of HTTP security headers are critical to improving the security posture and protecting user data.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Configure HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy.
  3. Enable HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload to enforce secure connections.
  4. Implement OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve TLS performance and security.
  5. Add an incident response contact or page to facilitate vulnerability reporting and response.
  6. Optimize website performance to reduce load times and improve user experience.
  7. Update or replace outdated technologies such as AngularJS 1.4.8 to supported versions.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a combination of popular plugins such as Visual Composer and Slider Revolution, and uses jQuery and AngularJS 1.4.8 for frontend interactivity. SEO is enhanced by Yoast SEO plugin, and Google Analytics is used for traffic analysis. The site has a large page size (~831 KB) and a slow load time (~25 seconds), indicating potential optimization needs. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design and viewport settings. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified, but DNS records show no DNSSEC or CAA records, which could be improved for security. The absence of a valid SSL certificate is a major technical deficiency. Overall, the infrastructure is typical for a medium to large WordPress site but requires modernization and security hardening.
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.
