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

FLIGHTKEYS GmbH is an Austrian-based company specializing in advanced flight planning and trajectory optimization solutions for the aviation industry. Founded in 2015, the company offers a sophisticated 5D flight management system designed to optimize airline operations cost-effectively while integrating environmental sustainability and real-time flight dynamics. Their market position is that of a niche technology innovator serving airlines and aviation stakeholders globally. The website presents detailed product information and company background, targeting aviation professionals and potential customers. Technically, the website uses a traditional web stack including nginx, jQuery, and slick carousel, with a responsive design suitable for mobile devices. However, the site lacks HTTPS support and a valid SSL certificate, which is a critical security deficiency. Security headers are partially implemented but insufficient without encryption. No analytics or tracking services are detected, indicating minimal user tracking. From a security perspective, the absence of HTTPS and privacy policies significantly lowers the site's security posture and privacy compliance. The site does not provide terms of service, security policies, or incident response contacts, which are important for trust and compliance. The WHOIS data is consistent and indicates a mature, legitimate domain registration aligned with the company's Austrian base. Overall, while the business and content quality are good, the lack of HTTPS and privacy compliance are critical issues that must be addressed to improve trustworthiness and security. Strategic improvements in security infrastructure and privacy transparency are recommended to align with industry best practices.

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

7 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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.

    • 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

FLIGHTKEYS operates in the specialized aviation technology sector, focusing on flight planning and trajectory optimization. Their competitive advantage lies in their 5D flight management system that integrates probabilistic modeling, full flight dynamics, and environmental considerations. The business model is B2B SaaS and service-oriented, targeting airlines and aviation operators. Revenue streams likely include software licensing, support, and consulting. The company fosters partnerships, notably with Spacekeys, and engages customers through user group meetings. Growth indicators include continuous product development and a focus on innovation. The company maintains a small but expert team based in Vienna, Austria, with a clear focus on quality and niche market leadership.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is low due to the absence of HTTPS and SSL/TLS encryption, which exposes users to risks such as data interception and man-in-the-middle attacks. Security headers like X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options are present, which is positive, but without encryption, their effectiveness is limited. There are no visible vulnerabilities like Heartbleed or POODLE, but the lack of encryption is a critical gap. Compliance gaps include missing privacy and cookie policies, no incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, and no GDPR compliance indicators. The site collects personal data via forms without visible consent mechanisms, posing privacy risks. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not evident. Overall, the security posture requires urgent improvements in encryption and privacy compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a valid SSL/TLS certificate and enforce HTTPS across the entire website to secure data in transit.
  2. Develop and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements and consent mechanisms.
  3. Add terms of service and security policy documents to improve transparency and legal compliance.
  4. Establish and publicize an incident response process and vulnerability disclosure policy, including dedicated security contact channels.
  5. Regularly audit and enhance security headers, enable HSTS with preload, and implement OCSP stapling and session resumption to strengthen security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on an nginx server with a traditional web stack including jQuery and slick carousel for UI components. The site is responsive and mobile-friendly, with a clean and professional design. However, the lack of HTTPS is a major technical deficiency. Performance data is unavailable, but the site appears to load standard assets without heavy frameworks. There is no CMS detected, suggesting a custom-built or static site. DNS records show stable hosting with Austrian name servers. Technical risks include exposure of user data due to unencrypted connections and lack of modern security practices. Modernization opportunities include adopting HTTPS, improving privacy compliance, and potentially integrating modern frontend frameworks for enhanced UX.
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.
