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

Lapp Automaatio Oy is a leading Finnish company specializing in the sales and expert services of automation and electrical components for machine building and process industries. The company operates as part of the larger LAPP Group, headquartered in Switzerland, and targets industrial clients primarily in Finland. Their key services include product sales, packaging, electrical maintenance, calibration, enclosure machining, and storage services, supported by digital tools such as product selection aids. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with clear navigation and comprehensive business information. Technically, the website is built on an IBM Domino backend, utilizing legacy JavaScript libraries like jQuery 1.8.3, along with Bootstrap and other UI frameworks. While the site is functional and moderately optimized for mobile, it shows signs of technical debt and lacks modern security headers and DNSSEC. The presence of CookiePro for consent management and Econda for analytics indicates a reasonable level of digital maturity and privacy compliance. From a security perspective, the site lacks advanced security headers and uses outdated JavaScript libraries with known vulnerabilities, which could expose it to risks. DNSSEC is not enabled, and no incident response or security policy information is publicly available. However, the domain registration is transparent and consistent with the business, and no WAF or blocking mechanisms interfere with access. Overall, the website scores well on business credibility and privacy compliance but requires technical and security improvements to enhance its posture. Strategic recommendations include upgrading JavaScript libraries, implementing security headers, enabling DNSSEC, and conducting a security audit of the IBM Domino platform.

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. 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

    • 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

  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.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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 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';…

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

Lapp Automaatio holds a strong market position in Finland as a supplier and expert in automation and electrical components for industrial sectors, particularly machine building and process industries. Their business model focuses on B2B sales complemented by value-added services such as calibration and packaging. The company benefits from its affiliation with the LAPP Group, a Swiss-based parent company, which enhances its credibility and resource base. The website's content and structure indicate a mature business with a clear target audience of industrial clients. The presence of multiple contact channels and comprehensive policies suggests a customer-centric approach. Growth indicators include active news updates and service expansions. The partnership ecosystem includes the parent company and authorized regional partners.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is moderate but with notable gaps. The use of outdated JavaScript libraries like jQuery 1.8.3 introduces vulnerabilities that could be exploited. The absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. DNSSEC is not enabled, which could expose DNS spoofing risks. No public incident response or security policy information is available, indicating limited transparency in security governance. The website employs a consent management platform, supporting GDPR compliance, but lacks visible advanced security controls. Overall, the security posture requires enhancements to align with best practices and reduce risk exposure.

Recommendations

  1. Upgrade all outdated JavaScript libraries, especially jQuery, to the latest secure versions.
  2. Implement essential security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Enable DNSSEC for the domain to protect against DNS spoofing and improve domain security.
  4. Conduct a comprehensive security audit of the IBM Domino backend platform to identify and remediate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency by publishing a security policy and incident response plan on the website.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on an IBM Domino platform, indicated by .nsf URLs, which is less common and may require specialized maintenance. The front-end uses legacy JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 1.8.3, Protoculous, and Highslide, alongside Bootstrap and jQuery UI for UI components. Modernizr is used for feature detection. The site includes multiple sliders and interactive elements but shows signs of technical debt due to outdated libraries. Performance is moderate with basic mobile optimization. SEO is basic with meta tags present but no advanced structured data or Open Graph tags detected. Accessibility features are minimal. Hosting and DNS are managed by CSC Corporate Domains, Inc., a reputable registrar and DNS provider. Overall, the technical infrastructure is functional but would benefit from modernization and security hardening.
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.
