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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
  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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

EcoVadis holds a strong market position as a universal sustainability ratings provider, serving enterprise clients globally. Its business model revolves around delivering actionable sustainability insights and risk management tools to supply chain stakeholders. The company demonstrates growth and maturity with a domain age of over 15 years and a consistent brand presence. The use of multiple languages and advanced marketing tools indicates a broad international reach and customer engagement strategy. However, the absence of explicit privacy and security policies may be a gap in regulatory compliance and customer assurance.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL configuration and domain transfer protection, indicating good baseline security. However, the lack of DNSSEC and missing explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are published, which could hinder transparency and trust in security incident handling. The site uses reputable third-party analytics and marketing tools, which require careful privacy management. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be enhanced with additional policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve privacy compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement DNSSEC to enhance domain security and prevent DNS spoofing.
  3. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen browser security.
  4. Create and publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting and improve security culture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including Bootstrap, jQuery, and multiple analytics and marketing integrations such as HubSpot, Google Tag Manager, and Visual Website Optimizer. The site supports multiple languages via Weglot, indicating a global audience focus. Hosting appears to be on Microsoft Azure DNS infrastructure, supporting reliability and scalability. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. Some technical debt is indicated by the use of older versions of some libraries and missing advanced security headers. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
