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.

    • 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.

    • 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

  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

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

Metal Well operates within the manufacturing sector focusing on metal fabrication and welding services. Its business model is B2B, serving industrial clients requiring custom and serial production of welded metal constructions. The company leverages certifications and documented references to build trust and market presence. The multilingual website and partner domains indicate a regional presence across Czech Republic, Germany, and broader Europe. The company maintains professional contact channels and demonstrates a commitment to quality and compliance, which supports growth and client retention. Partnerships with WeldingPro Group and related domains suggest a collaborative ecosystem enhancing service offerings.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, use of Google reCAPTCHA v3 to protect forms, and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR. However, it lacks explicit security policies, incident response information, and a vulnerability disclosure program, which are important for transparency and trust. Security headers are not fully implemented, representing an area for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Overall, the security measures are adequate for the business type but could be enhanced to meet higher standards and regulatory expectations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  2. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  3. Enhance HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Maintain regular updates of WordPress core and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Continue monitoring and improving privacy compliance and transparency to strengthen user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including jQuery, Google Tag Manager, and reCAPTCHA v3. It uses Yoast SEO for optimization and Cookiedot for cookie consent management. Hosting is provided by Websupport, inferred from nameservers. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Performance is moderate, with caching and minified CSS/JS assets. The technical implementation supports a professional user experience but could benefit from additional security headers and performance tuning.
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.
