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

Krka is a well-established pharmaceutical company specializing in the development, production, marketing, and sale of generic prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, and veterinary products. With over 70 years of experience and a strong international presence, Krka holds a leading market position in the generic pharmaceuticals sector. The website targets healthcare professionals, patients, media, and potential employees, providing comprehensive corporate, product, and investor information. Technically, the site is built on modern JavaScript frameworks (Nuxt.js), uses Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking, and is mobile optimized with good accessibility features. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities, though DNSSEC is not enabled and security headers are not explicitly detected. Privacy compliance is adequate with clear privacy and cookie policies, though no explicit consent mechanism is observed. Business credibility is high, supported by clear contact information, corporate transparency, and trust signals such as awards and published financial reports.

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

6 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

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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

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

Krka operates in the healthcare sector as a large pharmaceutical manufacturer with a focus on generic drugs and veterinary products. The company benefits from a strong brand reputation, international market reach, and a diversified product portfolio. Revenue streams include prescription medicines, OTC products, and veterinary pharmaceuticals. The company maintains a robust partnership ecosystem, including extranets for partners and related business sites. Growth indicators include recent financial reports showing revenue increases and awards for investor relations. The business model emphasizes quality, innovation, and sustainability, with dedicated sections on ESG and corporate responsibility. The website content and structure reflect a mature, professional organization with clear strategic direction.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced site-wide and no exposed sensitive data in the HTML. The login modal for healthcare professionals indicates controlled access to sensitive product information. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options represents areas for improvement. No explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are found, which could limit rapid response to security incidents. The use of third-party analytics and tag management is standard but requires ongoing privacy compliance monitoring. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with additional technical controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement security headers such as CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Publish an explicit incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply fully with GDPR cookie consent requirements.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure privacy compliance and minimize user tracking.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Nuxt.js, a modern Vue.js framework, indicating a contemporary SPA architecture. It uses asynchronous loading of Google Analytics and Tag Manager scripts for performance optimization. Fonts are loaded via Adobe Typekit. The site is mobile responsive and includes accessibility features such as font size adjustment and high contrast themes. Performance appears moderate with preloading of key scripts and styles. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or framework-based solution. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The site uses standard SEO meta tags and Open Graph tags for social media integration. No critical technical debt or outdated libraries are evident, but security enhancements are recommended.
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.
