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 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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

    • High

      No DMARC record found

      DMARC provides email authentication and reporting

      What to do: Add DMARC record: "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@yourdomain.com"

  3. 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

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 29 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography
      • NIST SC-17: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-17: Public Key Infrastructure Certificates

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.

Breach exposure

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention krytox.de, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for krytox.de right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Krytox™ holds a strong market position as a niche manufacturer of specialty lubricants, leveraging the Chemours corporate brand. Their business model focuses on B2B sales through distributors and direct support, emphasizing product performance in extreme industrial environments. The website supports this with detailed product guides, whitepapers, and industry-specific applications. The multilingual presence and links to sister sites indicate a global footprint. The company targets sectors requiring durable and chemically resistant lubricants, such as aerospace and automotive, which suggests stable revenue streams from specialized industrial clients. The presence of social media channels and technical resources supports brand credibility and customer engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with enforced HTTPS and integration of monitoring tools like Microsoft Application Insights. Cookie consent is implemented via OneTrust, indicating GDPR awareness. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security hardening. No direct contact information for security incidents or vulnerability disclosure is provided, which is a gap in incident response readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The security score is good but could be improved by publishing security policies and adding security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve compliance and transparency.
  2. Add explicit security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, HSTS) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a security policy and provide dedicated contact channels for incident response and vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Enhance WHOIS information with registrant details to improve domain trustworthiness and transparency.
  5. Continue monitoring and updating third-party libraries and tracking tools to avoid vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including JavaScript, Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Application Insights, and OneTrust for cookie consent. It is hosted with UltraDNS nameservers, indicating a stable DNS infrastructure. The site is multilingual with alternate hreflang tags and uses structured data (JSON-LD) for organization and website schema, improving SEO. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and lazy loading of images. Accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA roles are present, contributing to good user experience. The site lacks a detected CMS, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Overall, the technical implementation is solid with room for improvement in security headers and explicit privacy documentation.
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.
