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

KRAUSE-Werk GmbH & Co. KG is a well-established German manufacturing company specializing in access technology and scaffolding solutions with over 125 years of tradition. The company operates internationally with multiple localized websites, including this Spanish version, targeting industrial and commercial customers requiring safe access systems. Their product portfolio includes standard and special aluminum solutions, safety services, and customer support. The website is professionally designed, content-rich, and consistent with the company's branding and market position. Technically, the website is built on the TYPO3 CMS platform, leveraging modern web technologies such as Bootstrap and jQuery. It integrates analytics and marketing tools including Matomo, Facebook Pixel, and Google Tag Manager, with a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism ensuring GDPR compliance. The site is mobile-optimized and provides clear navigation and multilingual support, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and implements cookie consent but lacks visible advanced security headers and explicit security or incident response policies. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. WHOIS data is unavailable due to query restrictions, but the website's professional presentation and contact information strongly indicate legitimacy. Overall, the website presents a low-risk profile with good privacy compliance and business credibility. Strategic improvements include enhancing security headers, publishing security policies, and improving accessibility features to further 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

5 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 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"

    • 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. 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

  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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

Business profile

KRAUSE-Werk GmbH & Co. KG holds a strong market position as a traditional and innovative manufacturer of access technology products. Their business model focuses on manufacturing, sales, and after-sales services, targeting industrial clients requiring safe and reliable access solutions. The company demonstrates international reach with multiple country-specific websites and localized content. Their marketing ecosystem includes analytics and retargeting tools, supporting data-driven customer engagement. The presence of detailed product information, service offerings, and multilingual support indicates a customer-centric approach. No direct revenue streams or financial data are disclosed, but the extensive service and product portfolio suggest a large enterprise scale. Partnerships or subsidiaries are implied through related domains but not explicitly detailed.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate to good security posture with mandatory HTTPS usage and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security hardening. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, which could impact transparency and readiness perception. The use of third-party analytics and marketing scripts introduces potential risk vectors that require ongoing monitoring. No vulnerabilities or sensitive data exposures were identified in the analyzed content. The WHOIS privacy protection is justified for a large enterprise but limits external verification of domain registration details.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate risks from external libraries.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to comply with standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to reflect evolving regulations and best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a robust and scalable content management system suitable for enterprise use. It uses Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for client-side scripting. Analytics are handled via Matomo, a privacy-focused platform, supplemented by Facebook Pixel and Google Tag Manager for marketing and tracking. The site loads multiple compressed CSS and JS assets, indicating optimization efforts. Performance is moderate with room for improvement in loading speed and accessibility. The multilingual setup and structured navigation demonstrate good technical planning. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. No critical technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected.
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.
