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

Gentics Software GmbH is a medium-sized technology company based in Austria specializing in enterprise content management solutions, e-government digital services, and customized software applications. Their website presents a professional and consistent brand image targeting enterprises and government agencies seeking digital transformation and content management platforms. The company offers a range of products including the Gentics Content Management Platform and related extensions. Technically, the website uses modern frameworks such as Bootstrap 5 and implements a GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanism with opt-in functionality. However, the site lacks a valid SSL certificate and does not serve content over HTTPS, which is a critical security shortfall. Performance is moderate with acceptable load times and resource counts, and the site is mobile optimized with basic accessibility features. From a security perspective, the absence of HTTPS and security headers significantly lowers the security posture. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, and no contact information is provided on the site, which may impact user trust and compliance. DNS records show standard email protection via SPF but lack DNSSEC and CAA records. WHOIS data is consistent and supports the legitimacy of the domain and business. Overall, while the business and content quality are good, the lack of HTTPS and security best practices present a significant risk. Strategic improvements in SSL deployment, security headers, and contact transparency are recommended to enhance 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

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

  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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…

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

Gentics Software GmbH holds a solid position in the technology sector, focusing on enterprise content management and e-government solutions. Their business model revolves around software product sales and tailored service solutions. The company targets medium to large enterprises and government organizations, leveraging partnerships such as with RUBICON IT. The website content and product offerings indicate a mature product portfolio with a focus on innovation and quality. However, the absence of visible contact details and security policies may limit customer confidence. The company appears to maintain a moderate growth trajectory with a stable market presence in Austria and potentially broader European markets.

Security posture

The current security maturity level of the website is low due to the lack of HTTPS and absence of critical security headers. While no known vulnerabilities or malware are detected, the missing SSL certificate exposes users to potential interception risks. The cookie consent mechanism is well implemented, supporting GDPR compliance, but the lack of incident response contacts and security policies indicates limited transparency and preparedness. The DNS configuration is standard but could be improved with DNSSEC and CAA records. Overall, the security posture requires urgent improvements in encryption and header policies to meet modern standards and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire website.
  2. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish clear contact information including emails and phone numbers to improve trust and compliance.
  4. Develop and publish a security policy and incident response contact details to enhance transparency.
  5. Enable DNSSEC and CAA records to strengthen DNS security and certificate issuance control.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Bootstrap 5.3.2 and includes a cookie consent library for GDPR compliance. The site loads 14 resources with a page size of approximately 81 KB and a load time of 3.8 seconds, indicating moderate performance. Mobile optimization is good, but accessibility features are basic. No CMS or advanced platforms are detected. Hosting appears to be on a European IP address without DNSSEC or CAA records configured. The absence of HTTPS and security headers represents a significant technical debt and security risk. SEO optimization is basic with minimal meta tags and no structured data or Open Graph tags detected.
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.
