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

esko-systems GmbH is a small IT service provider based in Bavaria, Germany, specializing in IT security solutions and managed services. The company offers a broad range of services including managed security, IT infrastructure, audits, backup solutions, and network security. Their website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with a focus on IT security challenges and solutions for businesses. The company maintains an active social media presence and uses modern web technologies such as WordPress with Elementor and Yoast SEO for content management and optimization. Technically, the website is well-structured, mobile-optimized, and uses HTTPS with good SSL configuration, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. However, the absence of explicit privacy policies, terms of service, and incident response contacts suggests areas for compliance and transparency improvement. Overall, the security posture is solid with cookie consent mechanisms in place, but could benefit from enhanced security headers and formal vulnerability disclosure policies.

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

4 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

  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
  3. Network security

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

    • 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

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.

Breach exposure

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention esko-systems.de, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for esko-systems.de right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The company positions itself as a regional IT security specialist in Bavaria, targeting businesses requiring managed security and IT infrastructure services. Their business model revolves around consulting, managed services, and security audits, catering to organizations seeking to enhance their IT security posture. The website content and service offerings indicate a focus on SMBs and enterprises looking for comprehensive IT security solutions. The presence of certifications or trust seals is minimal, but the company leverages social media and SEO tools to maintain visibility. There is no indication of parent or subsidiary companies, suggesting an independent operation. The company’s growth potential lies in expanding managed security services and infrastructure solutions in the German market.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented via Borlabs Cookie. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options is a gap that could be addressed to enhance protection against common web attacks. The absence of a published incident response policy or security contact emails limits transparency and readiness communication. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file was found, which is recommended for security maturity. Overall, the site is secure but could improve in formalizing security policies and enhancing HTTP security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement and publish an incident response policy with clear security contact channels.
  3. Add security HTTP headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Create and maintain a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users and comply with standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using Elementor for page building and Yoast SEO for optimization. It uses several plugins including Elementskit and Borlabs Cookie for enhanced functionality and compliance. The hosting is indicated by Microsoft Online nameservers, suggesting reliable infrastructure. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. The site uses standard web fonts and FontAwesome icons. No deprecated or vulnerable libraries were detected. The technical setup is solid but could benefit from additional security headers and improved accessibility compliance.
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.
