Hager · Energy · Germany

Low risk. 4 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view, SSL/TLS and 1 other check.

Security score

76/100

Risk levelLow

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

Hager is a well-established enterprise specializing in innovative electrical installation systems primarily targeting the B2B market in Germany and internationally. The website reflects a mature digital presence with a comprehensive product catalog and professional branding. The technical infrastructure leverages modern technologies including Sitecore CMS, Akamai CDN, and advanced search and analytics tools, indicating a high level of digital maturity. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and domain transfer protections, though improvements can be made by enabling DNSSEC and publishing explicit security policies. Privacy compliance is partially addressed with a cookie consent mechanism but lacks visible privacy and terms of service documentation. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and business-focused with room for enhanced transparency and security documentation.

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

4 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

  3. 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

Hager operates in the energy sector, providing electrical installation solutions with a strong market position supported by a long domain history and consistent branding. The business model centers on manufacturing and supplying electrical products with extensive catalog offerings. The target audience is primarily B2B customers such as installers and contractors. The company uses advanced marketing and analytics tools to support customer engagement and product discovery. The absence of direct contact information on the main page suggests a controlled communication channel, possibly via dedicated portals. The company demonstrates a strategic approach to digital presence and market reach.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL configuration and domain transfer protection, indicating a baseline security posture. However, the lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers reduces the overall security maturity. No visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which could hinder rapid response to security events. The use of third-party analytics and marketing scripts introduces moderate tracking but appears managed with cookie consent. There are no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data in the analyzed content. Enhancing security policies and transparency would improve trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to protect against DNS spoofing and improve domain security.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the main navigation or footer.
  3. Implement and verify security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  4. Provide explicit security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Review and optimize third-party scripts to minimize tracking and enhance user privacy.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Sitecore CMS platform, utilizing Akamai CDN for content delivery and multiple modern JavaScript libraries for analytics and search functionality. The presence of Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Bing Ads, and Algolia Search indicates a sophisticated marketing and user experience infrastructure. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The technical stack is modern and well-integrated, supporting a large enterprise-level website with complex navigation and product catalog requirements.
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.
