Risk levelLow

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

IDEX Fire & Safety is a prominent provider of innovative firefighting equipment and integrated safety solutions targeted at first responders and emergency services. The company operates under the umbrella of IDEX Corporation and features multiple trusted brand subsidiaries, positioning itself as a key player in the firefighting equipment manufacturing sector. Their website reflects a professional and consistent brand image, offering a comprehensive range of products designed to enhance safety and operational efficiency. Technically, the website is built on a Magento platform with modern JavaScript frameworks such as Alpine.js and Swiper.js, supported by performance and monitoring tools like New Relic and Google Tag Manager. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization, accessibility, and SEO practices, contributing to a positive user experience. From a security perspective, the website enforces HTTPS, employs standard security headers, and provides a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. However, it lacks explicit security policy documentation and incident response contact information, which are areas for improvement. The absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy, although the website content and branding strongly indicate a legitimate business presence. Overall, the website presents a solid digital presence with good security and privacy practices but would benefit from enhanced transparency regarding security policies and domain registration details to strengthen trust and compliance.

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

2 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 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

IDEX Fire & Safety holds a strong market position within the firefighting equipment industry, leveraging a portfolio of well-known subsidiary brands to serve emergency response and fire safety sectors. Their B2B business model focuses on manufacturing and distributing specialized equipment such as waterflow devices, nozzles, and monitors. The company targets fire departments and first responders, emphasizing innovation and integrated solutions. The website's partnership ecosystem includes multiple brand domains, indicating a broad and diversified product offering. Growth indicators include a professional online presence and comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, reflecting maturity in digital operations.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, use of security headers, and compliance with privacy regulations through cookie consent mechanisms. The integration of monitoring tools like New Relic enhances operational security oversight. However, the lack of a dedicated security policy page, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents gaps in transparency and preparedness. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a notable concern, potentially impacting trustworthiness. No immediate vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear and accessible security policy page outlining security practices and standards.
  2. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  3. Provide explicit incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Verify and update domain WHOIS registration details to enhance legitimacy and trust.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate potential security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a Magento CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries such as Alpine.js and Swiper.js for interactive UI components. Performance monitoring is enabled via New Relic, and analytics are managed through Google Tag Manager. The site demonstrates good mobile responsiveness and accessibility features, with structured metadata and SEO optimizations in place. The technical infrastructure supports a professional and user-friendly experience, though hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Opportunities exist to further optimize performance and enhance security monitoring.
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.
