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

HASCO is a leading German manufacturer specializing in standard parts (Normalien) and hot runner systems for mold making and injection molding industries worldwide. The company offers a comprehensive product catalog including standard parts, hot runner solutions, CAD services, and custom manufacturing. The website demonstrates a professional and modern digital presence built on Angular framework, integrating consent management and analytics tools with a focus on privacy compliance. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, though some security headers and explicit policies are missing. The lack of public WHOIS data introduces some uncertainty about domain registration details, but the overall business credibility and website professionalism indicate a legitimate and established enterprise. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing privacy and security policies, and improving accessibility 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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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
  2. 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';…
  3. 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

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

HASCO holds a strong market position in the manufacturing sector, targeting mold makers and injection molders globally. Their business model revolves around manufacturing and distributing high-quality standard parts and hot runner systems, supported by CAD tools and custom solutions. The website content and navigation reflect a mature digital strategy aimed at industrial customers. The company leverages Google Tag Manager and Usercentrics for marketing and compliance, indicating awareness of data privacy regulations. No direct contact emails or phone numbers were found, but contact forms are available. The absence of WHOIS data suggests privacy protection or data unavailability, which is common but should be monitored for legitimacy. HASCO's product range and service offerings position it as a key player in its niche with potential for growth through digital channels.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses a cookie consent platform that defaults to denying ad and analytics storage, reflecting good privacy practices. However, no explicit security headers like CSP, X-Frame-Options, or HSTS were detected in the provided data, which could improve defense-in-depth. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are published, limiting transparency in security incident handling. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for improvement in headers and policy transparency. The absence of WHOIS data adds a layer of uncertainty about domain registration legitimacy, which should be addressed. The site shows no signs of WAF blocking or malicious content.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and terms of service policies accessible from the website footer.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Publish a security policy or security.txt file with incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  4. Improve accessibility features to meet recognized standards and enhance user experience for all visitors.
  5. Verify and disclose domain registration details or ensure WHOIS privacy protection is justified and does not impact trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Angular 13, using modern JavaScript frameworks and libraries including Google Tag Manager and Usercentrics for consent management. The site uses Bootstrap components for UI elements like carousels. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization evident. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured navigation. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or SPA architecture. Hosting provider details are not available from the data. The site uses asynchronous loading for scripts and images, improving load times. Some technical debt may exist due to missing security headers and limited accessibility features. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional industrial website with opportunities for further modernization and security hardening.
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.
