Josef Manner & Comp AG · Retail · Austria

High risk. 3 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view and SSL/TLS.

Security score

49/100

Risk levelHigh

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

Josef Manner & Comp AG operates the website manner.com, a well-established Austrian confectionery brand specializing in Viennese wafer specialties since 1890. The website showcases a comprehensive product range, including wafers, baking products, gingerbread, and merchandise, targeting consumers interested in traditional confectionery. The brand maintains a consistent and professional online presence with rich content, social media integration, and e-commerce capabilities. Technically, the site uses modern technologies such as Vue.js, Algolia search, and Cookiebot for consent management, hosted likely on DigitalOcean. However, the security posture is weak due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of HTTPS, which is a critical issue that undermines user trust and data protection. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear privacy and cookie policies and GDPR consent mechanisms. Overall, the website is professional and credible but requires urgent security improvements to meet modern standards.

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

3 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

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

  2. 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

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

Manner.com represents a medium-sized retail confectionery business with a long heritage and strong market position in Austria and international markets. The business model combines manufacturing with direct-to-consumer sales via an online shop and physical retail locations. The company leverages digital marketing tools and social media to engage customers and promote its products. The partnership ecosystem includes dedicated domains for corporate and shop functions. The brand's competitive advantage lies in its tradition, product quality, and diversified product portfolio. Growth indicators include a modernized website with advanced search and filtering capabilities and active social media channels. Strategic observations suggest focusing on enhancing digital security and expanding direct online sales channels.

Security posture

The website demonstrates basic security best practices through the use of several HTTP security headers and a strict referrer policy. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support is a critical vulnerability that exposes users to data interception and undermines trust. No TLS protocols are enabled, and advanced features like OCSP stapling and session resumption are missing. There is no evidence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. Privacy compliance is supported by Cookiebot consent management and a comprehensive privacy policy. The overall security maturity is low, and immediate remediation is necessary to protect user data and comply with security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire website.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3) and disable insecure protocols.
  3. Implement HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload directives to enforce HTTPS.
  4. Enable OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve security and performance.
  5. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  6. Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments to identify and mitigate risks.
  7. Enhance accessibility features and mobile optimization to improve user experience.
  8. Maintain transparency in data collection and retention policies to strengthen privacy compliance.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern front-end powered by Vue.js and enhanced search capabilities via Algolia. Cookiebot manages cookie consent, and Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and tag management. Hosting appears to be on a DigitalOcean IP address. The site is well-structured with comprehensive metadata, Open Graph tags, and JSON-LD structured data for SEO. Performance metrics are not available, but the site uses lazy loading for images and responsive design elements, indicating good mobile optimization. However, the lack of HTTPS and SSL certificate is a significant technical debt and security risk. The site could benefit from performance monitoring and further accessibility improvements.
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.
