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

energy4me, operated by planergie ag, is a Swiss-based company specializing in solar energy solutions including photovoltaic systems, energy storage, and energy management primarily serving the Bern and Herzogenbuchsee regions. The company positions itself as an agile, motivated, and innovative provider focused on sustainable energy self-sufficiency for homes and businesses. Their website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with clear service offerings and customer testimonials, indicating a strong local market presence. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the Genesis Framework and Mai Theme Engine, incorporating modern web technologies such as jQuery and SEO optimizations via Yoast. The site is mobile-optimized and performs moderately well, though there is room for improvement in accessibility and security headers. Analytics are implemented via Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager, with moderate user tracking. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with good SSL configuration but lacks several security headers and explicit security or incident response policies. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Privacy compliance is partially met with a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service, but the absence of a cookie consent mechanism is a gap. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional with a solid business foundation and technical implementation. Strategic improvements in security headers, cookie consent, and incident response documentation would enhance compliance and security posture, further strengthening user trust and regulatory adherence.

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

8 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

      • 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. 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';…

  3. 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

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

energy4me operates in the renewable energy sector with a focus on solar power and energy management solutions. Their business model centers on providing integrated energy systems to residential and commercial clients, emphasizing local partnerships and sustainability. The company leverages a network of regional partners and offers interactive tools such as solar calculators to engage customers. The presence of job postings and active blog content suggests growth and active market engagement. Their competitive advantage lies in combining multiple energy solutions into a cohesive offering, supported by motivated and agile service teams. The parent company, planergie ag, provides corporate backing, enhancing credibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no visible sensitive data leaks. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. There is no public incident response or vulnerability disclosure policy, which limits transparency and preparedness. Privacy compliance is partial, with GDPR-aligned privacy and terms pages but missing cookie consent mechanisms. The use of third-party analytics introduces moderate user tracking, which should be balanced with privacy controls. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small business but would benefit from enhancements to meet higher compliance and security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish explicit security policy and incident response documentation to improve trust and preparedness.
  4. Regularly audit and update all WordPress plugins and themes to minimize vulnerability risks.
  5. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve security culture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a mature WordPress CMS platform using the Genesis Framework and Mai Theme Engine, which provide a solid foundation for performance and SEO. The inclusion of Yoast SEO plugin and structured data (JSON-LD) enhances search engine visibility. The site uses jQuery and slider libraries for interactive content. Performance is moderate with responsive design for mobile devices. However, accessibility features are basic and could be improved. Hosting details are not explicit, but the site uses external CDNs for fonts and scripts. There is no evidence of outdated or vulnerable libraries in the HTML content. Overall, the technical infrastructure is stable but could benefit from modernization in accessibility and security practices.
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.
