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. 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';…

  2. 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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

Gira holds a strong market position in the energy sector, specifically in electrical installation and smart home technology. Their business model revolves around manufacturing high-quality products and distributing them through a network of specialist partners and direct sales channels. The company targets a diverse customer base including private homeowners, electrical professionals, and architects, leveraging digital tools like the Gira Home Assistant configurator to enhance customer engagement and streamline project planning. The presence of multiple localized sites and partner domains indicates a broad geographic reach primarily centered in Germany and Europe. The company emphasizes innovation, design, and quality, which are key competitive advantages. Their marketing ecosystem includes advanced analytics and retargeting, supporting growth and customer retention. Strategic partnerships and a comprehensive product portfolio position Gira well for continued market relevance.

Security posture

Gira's website demonstrates a solid security posture with mandatory HTTPS encryption, use of reCAPTCHA to protect forms, and cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR requirements. The integration of multiple analytics platforms is managed with user consent, reflecting compliance awareness. However, the absence of explicit HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement in hardening the web application against common attack vectors. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency and readiness communication. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a potential concern but does not directly impact the website's security. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by implementing additional HTTP headers and publishing security-related policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen web security.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Add a security.txt file at the root domain to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve security communication.
  4. Regularly monitor domain WHOIS data and investigate the absence of registration details to ensure domain legitimacy.
  5. Continue enforcing GDPR-compliant privacy and cookie consent mechanisms and regularly audit third-party tracking tools for compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including JavaScript frameworks (likely Vue.js), Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Matomo for analytics, and the Google model-viewer for 3D product visualization. It employs asynchronous and deferred script loading to optimize performance. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. SEO is supported by canonical links and hreflang tags for internationalization. The use of reCAPTCHA protects forms from automated abuse. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not evident from the HTML content. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in loading speed and HTTP header optimization. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and user-friendly 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.
