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

Hueck Folien GmbH is a specialized manufacturing company based in Austria, focusing on high-quality film coating solutions with a strong emphasis on security features for banknotes and other high-security applications. The company has a solid market position as a trusted partner for the world's most secure currencies and offers innovative products such as security threads and self-adhesive labeling surfaces. Their website reflects a professional and consistent brand image, targeting industrial clients and partners in security and design sectors. Technically, the site is built on TYPO3 CMS with modern frontend technologies and integrates analytics and marketing tools like Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and disabled TLS protocols significantly weaken the site's security posture, exposing users to risks and reducing trust. While security headers are well implemented, critical improvements in SSL/TLS configuration are necessary. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. Overall, the website is professional and content-rich but requires urgent security enhancements to align with best practices.

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. 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

    • 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. 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

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

Hueck Folien operates in the manufacturing sector, specializing in film coatings with applications in banknote security, labeling, and design surfaces. Their competitive advantage lies in their high-security standards and long-standing partnerships with the banknote industry. The business model is B2B, serving industrial clients requiring specialized coating solutions. The company demonstrates growth and innovation through awards and new product launches. Their partnership ecosystem includes technology providers and recruitment platforms. The website content and structure support their market positioning as a reliable and innovative supplier. No parent or subsidiary companies are identified, indicating an independent medium-sized enterprise.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is low due to the lack of HTTPS and valid SSL certificates, which is a critical vulnerability. Security headers such as CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection are properly configured, indicating awareness of security best practices. No known vulnerabilities like Heartbleed or POODLE are detected. The absence of incident response contacts and security policies on the website suggests limited transparency in security governance. GDPR compliance is supported by privacy and cookie policies. The business impact of missing HTTPS is significant, potentially exposing sensitive user data and undermining trust. Incident response readiness and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are absent, representing areas for improvement.

Recommendations

  1. Install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3) and disable insecure protocols.
  3. Activate and configure HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload options to enforce HTTPS.
  4. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  5. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on nginx and uses TYPO3 CMS, a mature and extensible content management system. Frontend technologies include Bootstrap for responsive design and Font Awesome for icons. The site integrates Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel for tracking and marketing purposes. DNS records indicate hosting with a1.net, a reputable Austrian provider. Performance metrics are not available, but the site appears optimized for mobile devices and SEO with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The lack of SSL/TLS is a major technical debt and risk. The site uses a content security policy to restrict resource loading, enhancing security. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but requires urgent modernization of security protocols to mitigate risks.
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.
