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

KRAL GmbH is a medium-sized Austrian company specializing in manufacturing screw pumps and flow measurement solutions primarily serving industrial sectors such as marine, power generation, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, and oil & gas. The company maintains a professional online presence with a well-structured website powered by TYPO3 CMS, offering detailed product and service information, supported by a global network of sales and service partners. The website integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools managed through Google Tag Manager and employs a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism to comply with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support significantly undermines the site's security posture, exposing users to potential risks and reducing trust. Security headers are partially implemented, but critical improvements are needed to align with best practices. Overall, the business demonstrates strong credibility and market positioning but requires urgent technical security enhancements to protect its digital assets and customer data.

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

KRAL GmbH operates in specialized industrial manufacturing with a focus on fluid handling solutions. Its business model combines product manufacturing with value-added services such as pump and flow measurement services. The company targets industrial clients globally, supported by regional partner websites in the USA and China and a partner portal. The use of multiple marketing and analytics platforms indicates a mature digital marketing strategy aimed at lead generation and customer engagement. The company’s consistent branding and comprehensive content suggest a stable market position with growth potential. No parent or subsidiary companies were identified, indicating an independent operation. The company’s physical presence in Austria aligns with its domain registration data, reinforcing legitimacy.

Security posture

The website’s security posture is weak due to the lack of HTTPS and a valid SSL certificate, which is a critical vulnerability. While some security headers like X-Content-Type-Options are present, the absence of HSTS, modern TLS protocols, and OCSP stapling limits protection against common web attacks. The site uses multiple third-party tracking and marketing scripts, which are managed via a consent mechanism, indicating awareness of privacy compliance. However, no explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found. The DNS configuration shows no DNSSEC or CAA records, which could improve domain security. Immediate remediation of SSL/TLS issues and enhancement of security headers are recommended to reduce risk.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload directives.
  3. Upgrade server to support modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3) and disable legacy protocols.
  4. Implement OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve security and performance.
  5. Add additional security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Referrer-Policy, and X-Frame-Options.
  6. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency.
  7. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities and privacy risks.
  8. Consider implementing DNSSEC and CAA records to strengthen DNS security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS and served by an Apache web server hosted likely by A1 Telekom Austria. It uses multiple compressed CSS and JavaScript assets for performance optimization but reports zero load time and resource count in provided data, indicating incomplete performance metrics. The site is mobile optimized with responsive images and viewport settings. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags, Open Graph, Twitter cards, and canonical links. The site integrates several marketing and analytics tools via Google Tag Manager, including Google Analytics 4, Facebook Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, Hotjar, and Leadfeeder, all managed with a Klaro consent manager. Despite these modern technologies, the lack of HTTPS and weak SSL/TLS configuration represent significant technical debt and risk. Performance is rated slow based on available data, and accessibility is basic, suggesting room for improvement in user experience and compliance with accessibility standards.
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.
