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

igus.cz is the Czech Republic localized website of igus, a well-established manufacturer specializing in motion plastics technology including energy chains, linear guides, electric motors, and related industrial components. The website targets industrial and manufacturing businesses, engineers, and technical buyers with a B2B business model. The site is professionally designed with consistent branding and multi-language support, reflecting a mature digital presence. Technically, the site uses modern frameworks such as React and Next.js, with moderate performance and good mobile optimization. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS usage and no visible sensitive data exposure, but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. WHOIS data is unavailable, limiting domain trust verification. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but could improve transparency and security documentation.

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 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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';…

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

igus operates in the manufacturing and technology sectors, focusing on motion plastics products. The company appears to have a strong market position as an expert and manufacturer with a broad product portfolio including energy chains, linear technology, and motor systems. The website supports multiple country domains, indicating a global presence. The business model is direct B2B sales with technical support channels such as WhatsApp chat. The absence of detailed company registration or VAT information on the site limits deeper business verification. The site’s content and navigation suggest a focus on industrial customers and engineers, with tools like lifetime calculators and product configurators enhancing customer engagement.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses modern web technologies, which is positive for security. However, there is no evidence of security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS, and no published security or incident response policies. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found. Tracking is done via piwik.pro, which is privacy-focused but requires clear cookie consent mechanisms, which are missing. The lack of WHOIS data reduces trust in domain legitimacy. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by adding security headers, transparency on data protection, and incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Add security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to improve security transparency.
  4. Provide clear contact information for security incidents and data protection officer details.
  5. Verify and publish WHOIS domain registration data or ensure domain registration information is accessible to improve trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React/Next.js stack, leveraging server-side rendering and client-side interactivity. It uses SVG logos and icons for crisp visuals and includes multi-language support via hreflang tags. Analytics and tracking are implemented using piwik.pro scripts, indicating a preference for privacy-conscious analytics. The site is moderately performant and mobile-optimized but lacks some accessibility features and security best practices such as security headers. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or headless CMS solution. Hosting provider details are not evident from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced security and privacy features.
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.
