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

Heckel is a French manufacturer specializing in safety footwear, offering a broad range of products from lightweight safety sneakers to shoes designed for extreme environments. The company is part of the uvex group, a well-established entity in the safety and sports equipment sectors. The website demonstrates a professional digital presence with a modern TYPO3 CMS infrastructure, CDN hosting, and integration of analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel. Privacy and cookie compliance are well implemented, reflecting adherence to GDPR standards. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place, though some security headers could be improved. The absence of WHOIS data limits full trust assessment but the overall website professionalism and branding consistency support legitimacy.

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

7 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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

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

Heckel operates in the manufacturing and retail sectors, focusing on safety footwear for professionals in construction, logistics, and other industrial fields. Their business model includes product innovation, manufacturing, and distribution through retail and online channels. The company leverages its parent company uvex group's brand strength and partnerships to maintain market position. The website content targets professional users seeking reliable safety footwear solutions. Social media engagement and comprehensive product information indicate active marketing and customer outreach efforts.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and cookie consent banners, indicating a baseline security and privacy awareness. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not detected, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The use of third-party scripts such as Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel introduces moderate tracking but is managed with user consent. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, suggesting room for improvement in transparency and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options headers to strengthen web security.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  3. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance contact information visibility by including verified company emails and phone numbers.
  5. Maintain up-to-date WHOIS information to improve domain trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a robust and scalable content management system, supported by Amazon Cloudfront CDN for fast content delivery. The use of modern JavaScript modules and responsive design ensures good performance and mobile optimization. SEO practices are evident with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD) for search engines. Accessibility features appear adequate, and the site navigation is clear and user-friendly. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, supporting a positive user experience and operational reliability.
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.
