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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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.

    • 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 384-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

InsightCommodity is positioned as a key marketplace in the energy commodity data sector, leveraging its association with EEX and Deutsche Börse Group to build credibility. Its business model focuses on connecting data providers with consumers through a digital platform offering diverse services such as analytics, clearing, and weather data. The platform targets energy market professionals and traders, providing tools to optimize trading and procurement decisions. The presence of over 35 providers and a comprehensive product catalog indicates a growing ecosystem. The company appears medium-sized, founded in 2019, with a clear focus on innovation and data-driven market solutions. Partnerships with recognized industry players enhance its competitive advantage and market reach.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with mandatory HTTPS, secure form validations, and GDPR-compliant cookie management. However, the absence of DNSSEC and some advanced security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options) represents areas for improvement. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is published, which could hinder rapid response to security issues. The use of third-party scripts like eTracker is managed with consent mechanisms, reducing privacy risks. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but would benefit from enhanced DNS security and formalized incident response channels to align with best practices and regulatory expectations.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS integrity and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response contacts.
  3. Implement and enforce advanced security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Add explicit incident response and abuse contact information on the website.
  5. Conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a robust Magento 2 e-commerce platform, utilizing RequireJS for modular JavaScript loading and jQuery for DOM manipulation. Mageplaza extensions and Owl Carousel enhance UI/UX. The site is hosted by Deutsche Telekom AG, ensuring reliable infrastructure. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading and lazy loading of images. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags and structured content. Mobile optimization is good, though accessibility features are basic and could be improved. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from further optimization and security hardening to reduce technical debt and enhance resilience.
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.
