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 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

    • 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

      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

Miele operates in the premium appliance market with a strong brand reputation and a comprehensive product portfolio. The business model focuses on manufacturing and direct retail, supported by technical assistance and customer service. The website reflects a mature digital presence with clear navigation and promotional campaigns such as 'Cooking Days'. The absence of explicit privacy and cookie policies suggests room for compliance improvement. The company maintains a consistent brand image and targets a broad audience including both consumers and professionals. Partnerships or subsidiaries are not explicitly identified in the provided data.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of published security policies or incident response contacts indicate areas for improvement. No vulnerability disclosures or security.txt files were found, which limits transparency for security researchers. The use of Google Tag Manager introduces moderate tracking but no evident privacy controls were detected. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be strengthened by adopting best practices in headers, policies, and disclosure.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Create and maintain a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance visibility of official contact information including emails and phone numbers for customer and security inquiries.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack centered on Nuxt.js and Vue.js frameworks, integrated with Commerce Cloud and Contentstack CMS platforms. The site is mobile-optimized with good accessibility and SEO practices evident from meta tags and structured navigation. Performance is moderate, likely due to rich media content and client-side rendering. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and marketing tracking. There is no evidence of legacy or vulnerable libraries. Technical debt appears low, but the absence of security headers and privacy mechanisms suggests some gaps in security best practices.
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.
