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

FERRO ADRIATICA d.o.o. operates as part of the FERRO S.A. group, a leading manufacturer and distributor of sanitary and heating products in Central and Eastern Europe. The company offers a broad portfolio of products including sanitary fittings, heating valves, and interior design services, targeting B2B customers such as installers, distributors, and industry professionals. The website reflects a medium-sized enterprise with a strong regional presence and a focus on quality and design, supported by ISO 9001:2015 certification and multiple regional websites in various languages. Technically, the website employs modern frontend technologies including jQuery, Foundation framework, and FontAwesome icons, with integration of Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for marketing and analytics purposes. The site is mobile optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. However, no CMS or hosting provider details are explicitly identified. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and secure form submissions but lacks visible security headers and explicit privacy or cookie policies, which are important for GDPR compliance and user trust. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, indicating room for improvement in security transparency and readiness. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and safe for general audiences, but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance and security best practices to strengthen its security posture 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

11 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

  2. 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 SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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

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

FERRO ADRIATICA d.o.o. is positioned as an important manufacturing entity within the sanitary and heating industry, leveraging the FERRO S.A. group brand. The company benefits from a diversified regional presence with multiple localized websites, indicating a strategic approach to market penetration in Central and Eastern Europe. The business model focuses on product manufacturing and distribution, supported by quality certifications and a strong emphasis on design and reliability. The target customers are primarily B2B clients including installers and distributors. The company’s growth is supported by a broad product portfolio and international partnerships, although no direct subsidiaries are listed. The presence of ISO certification and Water Label certification enhances credibility and market trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and secure form handling. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. The lack of published privacy and cookie policies, as well as no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms, indicates gaps in compliance and security transparency. The use of third-party analytics and tag management tools introduces potential privacy risks if not properly managed. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is adequate but requires enhancements to meet higher compliance and security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against web attacks.
  3. Develop and disclose an incident response plan and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve security transparency and readiness.
  4. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and analytics tools to minimize privacy risks and ensure secure data handling.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern frontend technology stack including jQuery, Foundation framework, and FontAwesome icons, which supports responsive design and good user experience. Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are integrated for marketing and analytics purposes. The site structure is well-organized with clear navigation menus and multiple language options, indicating good internationalization support. Performance is moderate with no obvious issues, though no explicit performance metrics are available. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified but the registrar is Hrvatski Telekom d.d., a reputable Croatian telecom provider. No CMS is detected, suggesting a custom or static site implementation. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in security headers and privacy compliance are recommended.
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.
