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

ÖkoFEN Forschungs- und Entwicklungs Ges.m.b.H. is a specialist company in the energy sector focusing on wood pellet heating systems and boilers. With over 100,000 pellet heating systems sold worldwide, the company holds a strong market position as a leading provider in sustainable heating solutions. The website reflects a professional international presence with multiple subsidiaries across Europe, America, and Oceania, supporting a broad target audience of consumers and businesses interested in pellet heating technology. Technically, the website employs modern technologies such as Bootstrap 5 and cloud hosting via AWS S3, ensuring moderate to good performance and mobile optimization. The presence of a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism and privacy policy indicates a mature approach to privacy compliance. However, some security headers are missing, and no explicit security or incident response policies are published on the site. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and enforces cookie consent, but lacks visible security headers and incident response contact information. The WHOIS data is unavailable, which slightly reduces trustworthiness, but the professional content and international footprint support legitimacy. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the website is well-structured, professional, and compliant with privacy regulations, with room for improvement in security headers and transparency around security policies. The domain's WHOIS data absence is a minor concern but does not outweigh the strong business indicators present.

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. 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

      Forces HTTPS connections

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

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

    • 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';…

  2. 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.

    • High

      SPF DNS Lookup Limit Exceeded

      SPF record requires 11 DNS lookups (max 10)

      What to do: Reduce includes and mechanisms to stay under limit

  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

  • 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

ÖkoFEN operates in the energy sector with a focus on sustainable pellet heating systems. Their business model centers on manufacturing and selling specialized heating boilers, supported by a network of international subsidiaries and partners. The company targets both residential and commercial customers seeking eco-friendly heating solutions. Their market position is strong, supported by a large installed base and international reach. The website's structured data and multiple localized sites indicate a well-organized global strategy. Partnerships with local distributors and service providers enhance market penetration. Revenue streams likely include product sales, installation, and after-sales services. The company demonstrates growth potential through geographic expansion and product specialization.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture. HTTPS is enforced, and a cookie consent mechanism is implemented to comply with privacy regulations. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces the overall security hardening. No forms or input fields were detected on the homepage, minimizing attack surface. The lack of published incident response or security policy information limits transparency. WHOIS data is missing, which could be a concern for domain legitimacy verification. Overall, the site is secure for general browsing but could improve in security header implementation and incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and user trust.
  3. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve security communication.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and cookies to ensure compliance with privacy regulations and minimize tracking risks.
  5. Improve WHOIS data transparency or use verified domain registration to enhance domain legitimacy and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack including Bootstrap 5 for responsive design and AWS S3 for hosting static assets, ensuring good performance and scalability. Cookie consent is managed via DataReporter scripts, indicating compliance with GDPR and other privacy laws. Analytics and marketing tracking are implemented through Google Analytics, Microsoft, Facebook, Pinterest, and LinkedIn cookies, with user consent. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. No CMS or dynamic backend is evident from the HTML content, suggesting a static or headless architecture. Performance is moderate with potential for optimization in accessibility and security headers.
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.
