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

6 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 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. 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 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. 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

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

Hilti holds a strong market position as a leading manufacturer and service provider in the construction sector. Its business model focuses on B2B sales of high-quality tools and fastening systems, complemented by services such as tool repair and fleet management. The extensive network of country-specific domains indicates a broad international footprint and localized market strategies. The company benefits from brand recognition and trust, supported by consistent branding and professional digital presence. Growth indicators include investment in digital analytics and consent management, reflecting a commitment to data-driven marketing and compliance. Partnerships and subsidiaries are implied but not explicitly detailed in the provided data.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, presence of security headers, and integration of GDPR-compliant consent management. Use of modern analytics tools is balanced with privacy considerations, as tracking is consent-based. No direct evidence of security policy documentation or incident response contacts was found, which could limit transparency and readiness in case of incidents. No vulnerabilities or outdated libraries were detected in the analyzed content. The security score is high, but improvements in policy publication and vulnerability disclosure would enhance the security culture and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security practices and frameworks.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Enhance website accessibility to meet higher standards for all users.
  4. Provide explicit incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ emails.
  5. Continue investment in privacy compliance and transparent user consent mechanisms.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a robust technical foundation using Adobe Experience Manager CMS and Angular framework, supporting dynamic and scalable content delivery. Integration with advanced analytics (Datadog RUM, Google Tag Manager) and consent management (Didomi) indicates a modern approach to user tracking and privacy compliance. Performance is moderate with room for optimization, particularly in mobile responsiveness and accessibility. The presence of numerous hreflang tags supports international SEO and localization. No technical debt or deprecated technologies were identified in the provided content. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and to document security and compliance policies more explicitly.
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.
