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

Garador is a New Zealand-based manufacturer and supplier of garage doors and openers, targeting residential and industrial customers across the country. The company emphasizes reliability, security, and custom-built solutions, supported by a dealer network and warranty services. The website reflects a mature digital presence with modern technologies such as Vue.js, Google Tag Manager, and reCAPTCHA integrated for user interaction and security. Privacy and cookie policies are clearly presented, indicating compliance with data protection standards. However, the absence of WHOIS data raises questions about domain registration transparency, which should be verified for full trust assurance. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS and form protections, but could be enhanced with additional security headers and incident response information. Overall, the site is professional, user-friendly, and well-optimized for SEO and mobile devices.

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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  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 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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

  4. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Weak SPF Policy

      SPF record has permissive policy allowing any server to send email

      What to do: Use -all or ~all qualifier for better email security

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

Garador operates in the manufacturing sector, focusing on garage doors and related accessories. Its business model relies on manufacturing and distributing products through a network of dealers across New Zealand. The company leverages digital marketing and content resources such as brochures, technical guides, and videos to educate and support customers. The presence of warranty and service offerings strengthens customer trust and retention. The website's content and navigation are tailored to homeowners and businesses seeking secure and reliable garage door solutions. The company maintains active social media channels for brand engagement. Despite the lack of WHOIS transparency, the business appears established and credible within its market niche.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and integrates Google reCAPTCHA to protect form submissions, which are positive security measures. Tracking and analytics scripts from reputable providers are used responsibly. However, the site lacks explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could mitigate certain web-based attacks. No incident response or security policy information is available, which limits transparency regarding security governance. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could benefit from enhanced header configurations and published security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy to strengthen web security.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan on the website to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure domain legitimacy and reduce suspicion.
  4. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to identify and mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and provide more comprehensive compliance information to support diverse user needs and regulatory requirements.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack including Vue.js for frontend interactivity, Bootstrap for responsive design, and integrates multiple analytics and tracking services such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Quantcast. Fonts are served via Adobe Typekit, and Google Maps API is used for location services. The site loads asynchronously and uses lazy loading for images to optimize performance. While the site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly with proper meta tags and structured data, performance is moderate and could be improved with further optimization. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not evident from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and functional user experience.
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.
