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

Haufe X360 is a cloud-based ERP software platform designed specifically for small and medium-sized enterprises (KMU) primarily in Switzerland and the German-speaking DACH region. The company leverages strong technology partnerships with Acumatica and Microsoft Azure to deliver a scalable, modular ERP solution that integrates core business functions such as finance, CRM, production, and e-commerce. The website presents a professional and comprehensive overview of their offerings, targeting mid-market companies seeking digital transformation and process automation. Technically, the site is built on TYPO3 CMS, uses modern consent management via Usercentrics, and integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics. Hosting is implied to be on Microsoft Azure, ensuring robust cloud infrastructure. Security posture is strong, supported by ISO 27001 certification and encrypted data storage in German data centers. However, the site lacks a publicly accessible privacy policy and explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which are areas for improvement. Overall, the website is well-designed, content-rich, and trustworthy, with no signs of blocking or WAF interference.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  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

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  4. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality

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.

Business context

Business profile

Haufe X360 operates in the technology sector, focusing on cloud ERP solutions for SMEs. Its business model centers on SaaS delivery with extensive integration capabilities (60+ interfaces) and modular functionality tailored to various business departments. The company benefits from the backing of the Haufe Group, a reputable parent organization, enhancing market credibility. The product targets mid-sized companies in Switzerland and neighboring countries, emphasizing digital transformation, automation, and compliance with data protection standards. The partnership ecosystem includes Acumatica for ERP technology and Microsoft Azure for cloud hosting, positioning Haufe X360 competitively in the DACH ERP market. The website's content and references to awards and certifications indicate a mature product with a growing customer base and strong trust signals.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and hosting on Microsoft Azure, a platform known for strong security controls. The presence of ISO 27001 certification indicates adherence to international information security standards. Consent management is handled via Usercentrics, supporting GDPR compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published incident response contact or vulnerability disclosure policy limits transparency in security incident handling. Security headers are not explicitly confirmed in the HTML but should be verified and enhanced if missing. Overall, the site is secure but could improve transparency and communication regarding security policies and incident response.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page clearly linked from the homepage to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance browser security.
  3. Create and publish an incident response page or security contact email to facilitate vulnerability reporting and incident management.
  4. Implement and publicly disclose a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible security reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve usability for all users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a mature and extensible content management system suitable for enterprise use. It uses modern JavaScript libraries and integrates third-party services such as Google Tag Manager and Usercentrics for analytics and consent management. Hosting is on Microsoft Azure, providing scalability and security. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good SEO practices including meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate, with compressed CSS and JS assets. There is room for improvement in accessibility and explicit security header implementation. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and secure user experience aligned with business goals.
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.
