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

  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

EP Power Grit positions itself as a key player in the manufacturing sector for abrasives and industrial minerals, serving diverse industries including shipbuilding, construction, oil and gas, and infrastructure. Their competitive advantage lies in product quality, environmental friendliness, and a broad geographic footprint with multiple production sites and local customer support. The business model focuses on product sales combined with value-added services such as packaging and logistics. The company targets industrial customers requiring surface treatment solutions and benefits from a strong brand presence supported by a professional website and multi-language accessibility. The partnership with Personio for career management indicates structured HR processes. Growth potential is supported by the global reach and diversified product portfolio.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with enforced HTTPS, cookie consent for privacy compliance, and use of Matomo analytics which respects user privacy better than many alternatives. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the absence of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and lack of published security policies or incident response contacts are areas for improvement. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a concern and should be investigated further to confirm domain legitimacy. Overall, the security maturity is moderate to good but could be enhanced with additional best practices and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness for security incidents.
  3. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability reporting.
  4. Verify and monitor domain WHOIS registration status to ensure domain legitimacy and reduce risk of impersonation or fraud.
  5. Enhance contact information availability by providing verified company emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a mature and widely used content management system, indicating a stable and scalable platform. It uses modern web technologies such as SVG graphics, lazy loading for images, and responsive design to optimize user experience across devices. Matomo analytics is integrated for visitor tracking with privacy considerations. The site has good SEO and accessibility features, including proper meta tags and multi-language support. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in image delivery and caching. No hosting provider details were identified from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and performance tuning.
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.
