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

Hager Group operates a professional website focused on door communication and security solutions, targeting primarily B2B customers in the energy sector. The company has a long-standing market presence since 1976, supported by a domain registered since 1997. The website content is well-structured, professionally designed, and consistent with the company's branding and business model. The technical infrastructure leverages modern technologies including Sitecore CMS, Akamai CDN, and advanced search capabilities via Algolia, indicating a mature digital presence. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protections in place, though improvements such as enabling DNSSEC and adding security headers are recommended. Privacy compliance is partially addressed with a cookie consent mechanism but lacks visible privacy policy and terms of service on the analyzed page. Overall, the website reflects a credible and trustworthy enterprise with room for enhanced security and privacy 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

5 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

    • 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

  2. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Weak SPF Policy

      SPF record has permissive policy allowing any server to send email

      What to do: Use -all or ~all qualifier for better email security

  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

Hager Group is positioned as an established manufacturer and supplier in the energy and security technology sector, offering door communication systems and related electrical installation products. The business model focuses on B2B sales with a comprehensive product catalog and support infrastructure. The company benefits from a strong brand, consistent digital presence, and integration of marketing and analytics tools to support customer engagement and growth. No suspicious or inconsistent data was found in domain registration or website content, reinforcing legitimacy. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers on this page suggests reliance on contact forms or dedicated support pages. The company appears to maintain a professional partnership ecosystem and invests in digital marketing and user experience.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer lock status set. However, the lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options represent areas for improvement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency for security incidents. The use of multiple third-party analytics and advertising scripts necessitates careful privacy management to ensure GDPR compliance. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for the business type but could be enhanced by adopting additional best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  3. Publish a clear privacy policy and terms of service accessible from all pages.
  4. Add a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure page to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Review third-party scripts for privacy compliance and minimize user tracking where possible.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack centered around Sitecore CMS, supported by Akamai CDN for content delivery. Integration with Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Bing Ads, and Algolia Search indicates a sophisticated approach to marketing and user experience. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and includes accessibility features at a basic level. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization. The domain is well-established and hosted on reputable infrastructure. Technical debt appears low, but security enhancements and privacy transparency could be improved to reduce risk and enhance user trust.
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.
