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

ETM professional control GmbH is a medium-sized Austrian company specializing in the development of the SIMATIC WinCC Open Architecture SCADA system, serving critical industrial sectors such as energy, transportation, and building automation. As a wholly owned subsidiary of Siemens AG, ETM benefits from strong corporate backing and a global partner network, positioning it as a reputable player in industrial automation software. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand presence with detailed company history and management information. Technically, the site is built on TYPO3 CMS with modern JavaScript libraries and integrates marketing and analytics tools such as Adobe DTM and Google Analytics. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support significantly undermines the site's security posture, exposing users to risks and reducing trust. Security headers are present but insufficient without proper TLS implementation. Privacy and cookie policies are linked to Siemens global pages, indicating good compliance with GDPR and related regulations. Overall, the site is content-rich and credible but requires urgent security improvements to protect users and enhance trust.

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

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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. 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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 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';…

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

ETM operates in a niche but critical market segment providing SCADA solutions tailored for complex industrial applications. Its business model focuses on B2B software development and system integration, supported by a global network of certified partners. The company’s long history since 1985 and acquisition by Siemens AG provide competitive advantages and market credibility. Revenue streams likely include software licensing, support, training, and consulting services. Target customers are industrial enterprises in sectors such as energy, transportation, water management, and research institutions. The company demonstrates strategic focus on customer satisfaction and continuous product development. Partnerships and subsidiaries are limited but well integrated within Siemens’ ecosystem. The website content and structure support a professional image aligned with its market position.

Security posture

The website exhibits a low security maturity level primarily due to the lack of a valid SSL certificate and absence of HTTPS, which is a critical vulnerability. While security headers such as HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-XSS-Protection, and Referrer-Policy are implemented, their effectiveness is diminished without TLS. No evidence of vulnerability disclosure policies or incident response contacts is found, indicating gaps in security governance and transparency. Forms include CSRF protections and trusted properties, which is positive. The site uses modern JavaScript libraries but no vulnerable versions were detected. Privacy compliance is supported by Siemens’ global policies. Overall, the security posture requires immediate remediation of SSL/TLS issues and enhancement of incident response and disclosure mechanisms to meet industry best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable and enforce modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or higher) and disable insecure protocols.
  3. Implement full HSTS policy with includeSubDomains and preload flags to protect users.
  4. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Regularly audit and update security headers and form protections to maintain defense in depth.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a mature and widely used CMS platform (TYPO3) with a modern front-end stack including jQuery, Bootstrap, and Slick Carousel. Hosting appears to leverage F5 Cloud Services and Akamai DNS infrastructure, indicating enterprise-grade delivery and availability. Performance metrics were not available, but the presence of compressed CSS and JS assets suggests optimization efforts. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design and appropriate meta viewport settings. SEO is supported by canonical tags, Open Graph metadata, and structured navigation. Accessibility is basic but present. The main technical risk is the lack of HTTPS, which impacts security and user trust. Modern marketing and analytics tools are integrated, supporting data-driven insights and compliance with privacy regulations.
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.
