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

8 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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

  2. 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';…

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

The company targets professional customers in the electrotechnical sector, including electricians, wholesalers, industry clients, and public sector entities. Its business model centers on wholesale distribution complemented by consulting, training, and logistics services. The presence of dedicated subdomains for careers and online shopping indicates a mature digital ecosystem. The company leverages partnerships such as with Telering and maintains a strong regional presence. The website content and structure support a customer-centric approach with emphasis on quality, service, and knowledge transfer. The firm’s long history and family ownership contribute to its market credibility and trustworthiness.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Matomo analytics with cookie consent requirements, which is positive for privacy. However, the absence of explicit cookie consent banners and security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No incident response or security policy information is published, limiting transparency in case of security events. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. The security score is good but could be improved by implementing recommended headers and policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a visible cookie consent banner to ensure GDPR compliance and user transparency.
  2. Add security headers including Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  4. Consider establishing a vulnerability disclosure policy and hosting a security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.

Technical notes

Notes

The website runs on TYPO3 CMS, a robust and widely used enterprise content management system. It uses modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, Flexslider, and DataTables for enhanced UI/UX. Matomo analytics is used for privacy-respecting visitor tracking. The hosting appears to be with Deutsche Telekom based on nameservers, suggesting reliable infrastructure. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. SEO is supported by Yoast SEO for TYPO3. Accessibility is basic and could be improved. The site uses multiple CSS and JS assets, indicating a well-structured frontend but with potential for optimization. No critical technical debt or outdated technologies were identified.
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.
