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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Milwaukee Tools positions itself as a leading provider of heavy-duty power tools and equipment for professional users, focusing on B2B and B2C sales. The business model revolves around offering complete solutions including tools, accessories, and safety gear. The website's extensive product catalog and localized content for Germany indicate a strong regional focus. The use of multiple marketing and tracking platforms suggests an active customer engagement and lead generation strategy. Absence of direct contact details in the visible content may indicate reliance on dealer networks or online forms for customer interaction. The company benefits from brand recognition and a consistent digital presence, supporting growth and market penetration in the professional tools sector.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent implemented in compliance with GDPR. Multiple third-party analytics and marketing scripts are used, which increases the attack surface but are managed with user consent. Security headers are implied but not explicitly confirmed in the provided data. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a public security policy, incident response contact, or vulnerability disclosure program suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness. Regular audits of third-party scripts and explicit security headers implementation are recommended to maintain and enhance security maturity.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publicly disclose a comprehensive security policy and incident response plan.
  2. Add a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  3. Ensure all recommended security headers (X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, CSP) are configured and verified.
  4. Provide clear and accessible company contact information including support emails and phone numbers.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts to mitigate potential security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-based front end with Relay components, indicating React or similar framework usage. It integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager, Hotjar, Facebook Pixel, and affiliate networks like TradeDoubler and StackAdapt. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO practices including structured data (JSON-LD). The CMS appears custom or proprietary, with no common open-source CMS detected. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by multiple third-party scripts. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. Hosting provider details are not evident from the data. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable e-commerce presence.
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.
