75/100

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

Fromi GmbH is an established German company specializing in the wholesale and distribution of cheese specialities and fine foods, with over 50 years of experience and an international reputation. The company targets cheese retailers, food service professionals, and gourmet consumers, offering a wide range of products and services including cheese selections, fine food offerings, and customer support. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with multilingual support and comprehensive product information. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern plugins and libraries, optimized for mobile and SEO, and includes cookie consent mechanisms. Security posture is strong with HTTPS, obfuscated emails, and no visible vulnerabilities, though security headers could be improved. However, the absence of WHOIS data for the domain raises concerns about domain registration legitimacy, which impacts overall trust. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing incident response policies, and clarifying domain registration details to improve 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

2 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.

    • 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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Fromi operates in the retail and fine food sector, focusing on cheese specialities with a strong European and international presence. The business model centers on wholesale distribution supported by a dedicated sales team and a broad product catalog. The company leverages certifications and quality assurances as trust signals. Its partnership with a web agency and active social media presence indicate a mature digital marketing strategy. The website's multilingual capabilities and international contact points suggest a global market approach. Growth opportunities may lie in expanding digital commerce and enhancing transparency around security and compliance.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, email obfuscation, and cookie consent management. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the lack of security headers such as Content Security Policy and HSTS is a gap. There is no visible incident response or security policy published, which could be a compliance risk under GDPR and NIS2 frameworks. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a notable concern, potentially indicating privacy protection or registration issues that reduce domain trustworthiness. Overall, the security posture is good but could be strengthened with additional policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Clarify domain registration details and ensure WHOIS data is publicly available or justified by privacy protection.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools for security and privacy compliance.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and provide more comprehensive data retention and privacy disclosures.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress using a custom theme (Adipso) and integrates several modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Tiny Slider for UI components. SEO is managed via Yoast SEO plugin with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Cookie consent is handled by tarteaucitron, supporting GDPR compliance. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization. No hosting provider details were found. The site uses external tracking services like Metricool and Google Analytics, which are disclosed via cookie consent. Technical risks include missing security headers and reliance on third-party scripts that require ongoing monitoring.
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.
