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

Element Green operates as a network of 17 owner-managed companies specializing in interior and exterior greening solutions across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Their services include office greening, object greening, vertical and horizontal plantings, and professional plant care, positioning them as a collaborative and experienced player in the real estate and hospitality sectors. The website is professionally designed with comprehensive content, clear navigation, and good mobile optimization, reflecting a mature digital presence. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with Elementor and Yoast SEO, employing modern libraries and security best practices such as HTTPS and security headers. However, the absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy, although the website content and contact information suggest a legitimate business. Privacy compliance is strong with a detailed privacy policy, but the lack of a cookie consent mechanism and security incident response policy are areas for improvement. Overall, the site scores well on content quality and technical implementation but should address compliance and domain legitimacy issues to enhance trust and security posture.

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

6 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 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"

    • 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 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

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

Element Green's market positioning as a network of specialized greening companies provides competitive advantages in handling large and cross-border projects. Their business model leverages collaboration and shared expertise to deliver comprehensive greening solutions. The target customers are businesses and organizations seeking professional interior and exterior plant installations and maintenance. The company demonstrates growth potential through regional partnerships and a strong online presence. The website content and social media integration support brand awareness and customer engagement. However, the unclear domain registration status could impact credibility and should be clarified. No direct revenue streams or pricing models are disclosed on the site, suggesting a focus on B2B partnerships and project-based engagements.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security posture with enforced HTTPS, presence of key security headers, and use of spam protection plugins. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy or incident response information limits transparency and preparedness perception. There is no evidence of vulnerability disclosure mechanisms or security.txt files, which are recommended best practices. Privacy compliance is supported by a comprehensive privacy policy, but the missing cookie consent banner may pose regulatory risks under EU laws. Overall, the security maturity is moderate to good, with room for enhancements in policy transparency and compliance mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a visible cookie consent banner to ensure compliance with EU cookie regulations.
  2. Publish a dedicated security and incident response policy page to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Clarify domain registration details and ensure WHOIS data is accurate and publicly available to enhance trust.
  5. Add data protection officer contact information if applicable to strengthen GDPR compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using the Elementor page builder and Yoast SEO plugin, indicating a well-supported and extensible infrastructure. It uses common libraries such as jQuery, Swiper for sliders, and FontAwesome for icons. The theme 'The7' is employed, which is a popular and feature-rich WordPress theme. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. The site uses HTTPS with strong security headers, contributing to a secure user experience. There is no indication of heavy analytics or tracking scripts, which may benefit privacy but limits marketing insights. Technical debt appears low, but the site could benefit from enhanced compliance features and clearer domain registration information to reduce operational risks.
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.
