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

IBA Group is a globally recognized leader in particle accelerator technology, specializing in healthcare and industrial applications. Their business focuses on innovative solutions for cancer diagnosis and treatment, including proton therapy, dosimetry, radiopharma, and industrial sterilization. The company targets healthcare providers and industrial clients with a B2B model, supported by multiple specialized subsidiary domains. Technically, the website is built on Drupal 10 with modern analytics and consent management tools, offering a professional and mobile-optimized user experience. Security posture is good with HTTPS and privacy compliance, though lacks explicit security policies and incident response information. The WHOIS data is missing or unavailable, which raises some concerns about domain registration legitimacy despite the professional web presence. Overall, the site is trustworthy, well-branded, and content-rich, suitable for its target audience.

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

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…

  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.

    • 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

IBA Group holds a strong market position as a world leader in particle accelerator technology, serving healthcare and industrial sectors. Their competitive advantage lies in comprehensive solutions spanning proton therapy, dosimetry, radiopharma, and industrial sterilization. The business model is focused on B2B sales and services, supported by a network of specialized domains and a clear investor relations presence. Growth indicators include regular press releases, financial presentations, and a corporate brochure. The partnership ecosystem includes technology partners like Modus QA. The company maintains a B Corp certification, signaling commitment to sustainability and corporate responsibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, cookie consent management via Klaro, and use of Matomo analytics with privacy considerations. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of security headers and lack of published security or incident response policies indicate room for improvement. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found, which could enhance transparency and incident handling readiness. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be strengthened by formalizing policies and adding security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response plan on the website.
  2. Add standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Consider providing direct company contact emails and phone numbers for improved trust and communication.
  5. Investigate and resolve the WHOIS data inconsistency or provide transparency about domain registration.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries such as Swiper.js for UI components and Klaro for cookie consent management. Matomo analytics is used for visitor tracking with privacy controls enabled. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features like skip links. Performance is moderate, with deferred and async loading of scripts. SEO is supported by canonical links and meta tags. No hosting provider information was detected. The technical stack is modern and well-implemented, though security headers are missing and could be added to improve security posture.
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.
