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

Handl Tyrol GmbH is a well-established Austrian family-owned company specializing in traditional Tyrolean ham, sausages, and roast specialities since 1902. The company positions itself as an ambassador of Tyrolean cuisine, offering both meat and plant-based products through retail and an online shop. The website reflects a strong brand identity with excellent content quality and clear navigation targeting consumers interested in authentic regional food products. Technically, the site employs modern JavaScript libraries and consent management tools but suffers from slow load times and lacks a valid SSL certificate, which is a critical security concern. The security posture is weak due to missing HTTPS, security headers, and DNS security features. Privacy compliance is well addressed with a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism and clear privacy policy. Business credibility is supported by transparent contact information and trust signals such as quality guarantees and PGI certification. Overall, the site is professional but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and enhance trust.

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

9 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

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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 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

Handl Tyrol operates in the retail and hospitality sectors, focusing on traditional food products with a heritage brand advantage. Their business model includes manufacturing and direct-to-consumer sales via an online shop. The company targets regional and international consumers interested in authentic Tyrolean cuisine, including health-conscious and vegan segments. The presence of multiple language versions and international domains indicates a strategy for broader market reach. Partnerships with EU funding bodies and clear quality guarantees strengthen their market position. The company maintains active social media engagement and uses analytics and marketing tools to optimize customer reach. No parent or subsidiary companies are identified, indicating an independent medium-sized enterprise with a focused product portfolio.

Security posture

The website currently lacks a valid SSL certificate, exposing users to potential data interception and undermining trust. No security headers or DNS security mechanisms are implemented, increasing risk exposure. The use of third-party tracking and marketing scripts is managed via a consent mechanism, supporting privacy compliance. However, absence of documented security policies or incident response contacts indicates limited formal security governance. The site should prioritize obtaining HTTPS, implementing security headers, and enhancing DNS security to improve its security maturity. Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments are recommended to identify and mitigate risks proactively.

Recommendations

  1. Acquire and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across all domains and subdomains.
  2. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Enable DNSSEC and configure CAA records to protect DNS integrity and certificate issuance.
  4. Improve website performance by optimizing resource loading and reducing page load times.
  5. Publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and preparedness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses JavaScript frameworks including jQuery and integrates Google Tag Manager and CookieHub for analytics and consent management. The site is multilingual with hreflang tags and uses structured metadata for SEO. Performance is suboptimal with a load time exceeding 7 seconds and moderate resource count. No CMS or hosting provider is explicitly identified. Accessibility features are basic, and SEO optimization is good with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The lack of HTTPS and security headers represents a significant technical risk. Modernization opportunities include adopting HTTPS, improving performance, and enhancing accessibility compliance.
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.
