With over 115 years of history and a global presence in more than 50 countries, the company positions itself as a leader in hygienic pumping solutions. Their website reflects a mature digital presence with comprehensive product information, case studies, and customer testimonials, targeting industrial clients seeking durable and efficient pumping equipment. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern plugins like WPBakery, Slider Revolution, and Yoast SEO, ensuring good SEO, mobile responsiveness, and user experience. The site uses HTTPS with a good SSL configuration and implements cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR. Analytics tools include Matomo and Google Analytics, indicating moderate user tracking balanced with privacy considerations. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses security-related plugins but lacks explicit security headers and a published security policy or incident response contacts.

Overall, Fristam Pumps demonstrates a strong business and technical foundation with good security hygiene. Strategic improvements include enhancing security headers, publishing a security policy, and adding vulnerability disclosure information to further strengthen trust and compliance.

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

8 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

      • 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 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

Fristam Pumps operates in the manufacturing sector, focusing on hygienic pumps and mixers for critical industries like food processing, pharmaceuticals, and personal care. Their business model centers on manufacturing durable, customized pumping solutions with global distribution and local support. The company leverages its long-standing reputation and technical expertise as competitive advantages. Revenue streams likely include product sales, after-sales support, and engineering services. The target customer segments are industrial clients requiring hygienic and reliable pumping equipment. The website's multilingual support and global contact points indicate a mature partnership ecosystem and international market reach. Growth indicators include recent news about management board updates and awards. The company maintains a professional online presence with detailed product catalogs and case studies, reinforcing market credibility.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate to good security posture with mandatory HTTPS enabled and cookie consent mechanisms in place. The use of security plugins like Borlabs Cookie and Matomo analytics shows attention to privacy and data protection. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents an area for improvement. No security policies or incident response contacts are published, which could hinder rapid response to security incidents. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified in the HTML content. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for the business type but can be enhanced by adopting additional best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Regularly audit third-party plugins and scripts to ensure no vulnerable libraries are in use.
  5. Enhance user privacy by detailing data retention policies and providing granular cookie consent options.

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.
