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

7 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 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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

MINERALplus holds a stable market position as a specialist waste management company with decades of experience and a clear focus on industrial waste recycling and construction materials production. Its affiliation with the EPH Group and subsidiaries like MINERALplus STORK GmbH strengthens its market presence. The business model revolves around industrial waste disposal, recycling, and landfill operation, targeting industrial clients and the construction sector. The company maintains partnerships with related firms such as Felix Höltken GmbH and EP Power Minerals GmbH, indicating a collaborative ecosystem. The website content and external links support a transparent and credible business operation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, cookie consent management, and the use of privacy-respecting analytics (Matomo). No security headers were detected in the provided data, suggesting room for improvement. There is no visible security policy or incident response information, which could be a compliance gap. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by publishing security policies, adding security headers, and providing incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security frameworks and practices.
  2. Add explicit incident response contact information (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email).
  3. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance contact information visibility by including verified company emails and phone numbers on the website.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses TYPO3 CMS, a robust and widely used content management system, ensuring maintainability and scalability. The tech stack includes modern JavaScript libraries and privacy-focused analytics (Matomo). Hosting is managed via agenturserver nameservers, indicating professional hosting. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive images and good accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with lazy loading of images and efficient resource loading. SEO is well addressed with meta tags and alternate language links. There is no indication of technical debt or outdated technologies, but adding security headers and enhancing incident response readiness would improve the technical maturity.
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.
