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

KAUN GmbH is a medium-sized carpentry business based in St.Florian, Upper Austria, specializing in manufacturing and installation of windows, doors, furniture, sun protection, and window renovation services. The company targets residential and commercial customers within the region, emphasizing quality craftsmanship and sustainability. The website is built on Joomla CMS using the Helix Ultimate framework and incorporates modern frontend technologies such as Bootstrap and jQuery. However, the site lacks HTTPS, which is a critical security deficiency. Privacy compliance is well addressed with a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism. Social media presence on Instagram and Facebook supports customer engagement. Overall, the business presents a professional image but must urgently address security gaps to protect user data and improve trust.

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

9 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

  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

  3. 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

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

KAUN GmbH operates in the manufacturing sector with a focus on carpentry products and services. The business model combines product manufacturing with installation and after-sales service. The company leverages partnerships with multiple brand suppliers, as indicated by linked partner domains. The website content and structure suggest a well-established regional presence with a focus on quality and sustainability. The absence of terms of service and security policies indicates room for improvement in formalizing customer agreements and security governance. The use of Google Analytics and cookie consent reflects awareness of digital marketing and privacy regulations. The company appears to maintain a moderate digital maturity level with opportunities to enhance technical infrastructure and security posture.

Security posture

The website currently operates without HTTPS, exposing all data transmissions to interception and manipulation risks. Security headers are minimal, with only X-Content-Type-Options present. There is no evidence of advanced security practices such as HSTS, CSP, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. Cookies are set with HttpOnly and Secure flags where applicable, but the lack of encryption undermines overall security. No incident response or security policy information is available, indicating limited readiness for security incidents. The site uses third-party scripts including Google Analytics and Facebook placeholders, which require careful management to avoid privacy leaks. Immediate implementation of SSL/TLS and enhanced security headers is critical to mitigate risks.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Configure HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload directives.
  3. Add a security.txt file to provide vulnerability disclosure contact information.
  4. Enhance security headers by adding Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy.
  5. Develop and publish terms of service and security policy pages to formalize user agreements and security posture.
  6. Regularly update Joomla CMS and all extensions to patch known vulnerabilities.
  7. Audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure privacy compliance and minimize data exposure.
  8. Improve website performance monitoring and optimization to reduce load times.
  9. Expand contact information to include verified company email addresses for better user communication.
  10. Consider accessibility improvements to enhance usability for all users.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Joomla CMS with the Helix Ultimate template framework, utilizing Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for interactivity. The site includes multiple CSS and JS assets, including Font Awesome icons and video player components. Despite a modern tech stack, the site lacks HTTPS, which is a major technical and security shortcoming. Performance metrics are not available or indicate zero load time, suggesting incomplete measurement or monitoring. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design elements and media queries present. SEO basics such as meta tags and Open Graph tags are implemented, but no JSON-LD structured data was found. Hosting appears to be on a dedicated or VPS server with IP 134.119.246.203. Overall, the technical infrastructure is functional but requires urgent security upgrades and performance monitoring enhancements.
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.
