Risk levelMedium

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

Augmented Industries GmbH operates the Flow Tool platform, a SaaS solution focused on industrial automation, technician training, and compliance management. The company targets manufacturing and industrial sectors, offering AI-powered training, audit-proof qualification tracking, and integration with manufacturing execution and quality management systems. The website positions itself as a trusted partner with certifications such as ISO 27001, ISO 42001, GDPR compliance, and EU AI Act adherence, supported by testimonials from major industry players like Siemens, Ford, and BMW Group. Technically, the site uses modern frontend technologies including React and Material UI, hosted on Azure DNS, with good mobile optimization and moderate performance. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and certifications but lacks DNSSEC and explicit security headers. Privacy compliance is supported by a cookie consent banner and a privacy policy located in the legal trust center. Contact information is minimal on the site, and no incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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 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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

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

Leaked credentials and lookalike domains from OffSeq Breach. The counts are free; the detailed lists are paid add-ons.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention flow-tool.com, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for flow-tool.com 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 is a small-sized German entity founded in 2023, focusing on delivering AI-enhanced industrial training and compliance solutions. Its business model revolves around SaaS offerings for manufacturing clients, emphasizing cost savings, quality improvement, and regulatory compliance. The presence of high-profile customers and media recognition indicates a strong market positioning and trust. The company leverages partnerships and certifications to build credibility. Growth potential is supported by integration capabilities with MES and QM systems and a focus on AI-driven continuous improvement. The lack of explicit contact details and terms of service may limit user trust and engagement.

Security posture

Flow Tool demonstrates a mature security posture with adherence to recognized standards such as ISO 27001 and ISO 42001, and compliance with GDPR and the EU AI Act. The website uses HTTPS and provides cookie consent mechanisms, indicating privacy awareness. However, the absence of DNSSEC, security headers, and incident response contact information represents gaps that could be exploited or reduce trust. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The company should enhance transparency around security incident handling and implement additional technical controls to strengthen defenses.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Add a dedicated terms of service page to clarify user agreements and legal protections.
  4. Provide clear contact information including support and security incident response emails or phone numbers.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to comply with standards and improve user experience for all users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including React and Material UI, ensuring a responsive and visually consistent user interface. Hosting on Azure DNS provides reliable infrastructure. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. SEO is basic with meta tags and Open Graph data present but no JSON-LD structured data detected. No CMS is identified, indicating a custom or static site approach. No analytics or tracking scripts were found, which may limit marketing insights but improves privacy. The site lacks some security best practices such as DNSSEC and security headers, which should be addressed to reduce risk.
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.
