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

3 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 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

  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

GrabCAD operates as a strategic software platform within the additive manufacturing sector, leveraging Stratasys' industry leadership. Its business model combines software sales, community engagement, and ecosystem partnerships to drive adoption and scale. The platform's extensive community and partner network provide competitive advantages and growth potential. The company targets manufacturing enterprises, engineering professionals, and educational users, offering tools that streamline 3D printing workflows and integrate with Industry 4.0 initiatives. The presence of multiple product offerings and a strong brand association with Stratasys positions GrabCAD as a key player in the additive manufacturing software market.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and domain registration protections that prevent unauthorized changes. Monitoring and error tracking are implemented via New Relic. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended security enhancement. Content-Security-Policy headers are not evident in the HTML source, representing a potential area for mitigating cross-site scripting risks. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The site uses secure forms with CSRF tokens, enhancing input security. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly disclosed, which could be improved to demonstrate security maturity.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement a robust Content-Security-Policy header to mitigate XSS and related attacks.
  3. Publish explicit security policies and incident response procedures to enhance transparency.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to avoid vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider adding cookie security flags and improving security headers coverage.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on AWS infrastructure with Cloudfront CDN, ensuring fast and reliable delivery. The tech stack includes modern JavaScript frameworks, New Relic for performance monitoring, and multiple marketing and analytics tools such as Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, and Optimizely. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessible navigation. No common CMS was detected, indicating a custom or proprietary platform. Performance is fast with well-structured content and SEO-friendly metadata. Technical debt appears low, but security header enhancements and DNSSEC adoption are recommended to reduce risk.
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.
