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

MatrikonOPC Inc., a Honeywell International Inc. company, is a leading global provider of industrial connectivity solutions specializing in OPC servers, clients, and historians. The website targets industrial automation professionals and system integrators, offering over 500 OPC products and emphasizing secure, reliable OPC UA and IIoT technologies. The company holds a strong market position as a charter member of the OPC Foundation and serves a large international customer base. Technically, the website is built on ASP.NET Web Forms with JavaScript and jQuery libraries, including an outdated Flash component that poses compatibility and security risks. The site includes modern tracking tools like Google Analytics and implements cookie consent mechanisms, reflecting a moderate level of digital maturity. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic but functional. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and cookie consent but lacks visible security headers and contains deprecated technologies. No explicit incident response or security policy pages were found, indicating room for improvement in security transparency and compliance. The WHOIS data is unavailable due to query restrictions, but the domain aligns with Honeywell branding and is likely legitimate. Overall, the website presents a professional and trustworthy front with good content quality and business credibility. However, technical modernization and enhanced security practices are recommended to improve resilience and compliance.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

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

  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 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';…
  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

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

  • DNS health: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

MatrikonOPC operates in the industrial automation technology sector, providing OPC connectivity solutions globally. Its competitive advantage lies in its extensive product portfolio, strong brand association with Honeywell, and commitment to OPC standards. The business model focuses on software product sales, support, and training services. The target customers include manufacturers, system integrators, and IT professionals in industrial environments. The company demonstrates growth through multilingual sites and comprehensive resources. Partnerships with support sites and Honeywell corporate domains reinforce its ecosystem. Strategic observations suggest focusing on modernizing legacy technologies and enhancing security policies to maintain market leadership.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS usage and cookie consent compliance. However, the presence of deprecated Flash content and older jQuery UI versions introduces vulnerabilities. The absence of security headers and explicit incident response information indicates gaps in security best practices and transparency. GDPR compliance is supported by privacy policies and consent mechanisms. The lack of visible security policies and vulnerability disclosure programs suggests limited readiness for incident response and vulnerability management. Business impact includes potential exposure to client-side attacks and reduced trust from security-conscious users.

Recommendations

  1. Remove all Flash content and replace with modern HTML5 alternatives to eliminate security and compatibility risks.
  2. Upgrade all JavaScript libraries, especially jQuery UI, to the latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  3. Implement comprehensive security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance browser security.
  4. Publish explicit security and incident response policies, including contact channels for vulnerability reporting and abuse.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and penetration testing to identify and remediate vulnerabilities proactively.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on ASP.NET Web Forms, indicating a legacy technology stack with some modern JavaScript enhancements. The use of jQuery 3.7.1 is current, but the inclusion of an older jQuery UI version with known vulnerabilities is a technical debt. Flash content remains embedded, which is deprecated and unsupported by modern browsers, impacting user experience and security. Performance is moderate with no explicit hosting provider identified. SEO is well addressed with meta tags and structured navigation. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic, suggesting opportunities for improvement. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business but requires modernization to reduce risks and improve user experience.
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.
