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

Oertli Instrumente AG is a Swiss-based manufacturer specializing in ophthalmic surgical devices, particularly for cataract surgery. The company emphasizes Swiss quality and innovation, targeting healthcare professionals involved in eye surgeries. Their product portfolio includes surgical platforms, instruments, and consumables, with FDA 510(k) clearance for key products, indicating regulatory compliance and market readiness in the USA. The website is professionally designed, mobile-optimized, and provides comprehensive information tailored to its professional audience. Technically, the website leverages modern technologies including Pimcore CMS, Google Tag Manager, and personalization scripts. It employs HTTPS with good SSL configuration and integrates consent management for cookies, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. However, some security headers are missing, and explicit security policies or incident response information are not publicly available. From a security perspective, the site shows good practices such as encrypted connections and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain is a notable concern, potentially indicating privacy protection or registration issues, which slightly impacts trustworthiness. Overall, the site maintains a good security posture but could improve transparency and security header implementation. The overall risk assessment is moderate with recommendations to enhance security policies, publish incident response contacts, and verify domain registration details. These steps would strengthen trust and compliance, supporting the company’s professional reputation in the healthcare sector.

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

5 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 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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

    • 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

  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
  4. 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

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

Oertli Instrumente AG operates in the healthcare sector, focusing on ophthalmic surgical devices. Their market positioning is strong, supported by regulatory clearances and a global distribution network. The business model is B2B, selling to healthcare professionals and institutions. The company leverages Swiss manufacturing quality as a competitive advantage. Their digital presence includes active social media channels and comprehensive product information, indicating a mature marketing strategy. Growth indicators include recent FDA clearance announcements and a focus on innovation. Partnerships and distribution networks are highlighted but no direct related domains were identified. The company appears medium-sized with consistent branding and professional content.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of a public security policy or incident response contact reduces overall security transparency. GDPR compliance is indicated through privacy and cookie policies. Incident response readiness cannot be assessed due to missing information. The security culture appears professional but could benefit from enhanced documentation and disclosure.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits to maintain compliance and security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Pimcore CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. It integrates third-party services such as LinkedIn Insight and Cookiefirst for consent management. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good SEO practices. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts to improve speed. No major technical debt or outdated technologies were detected. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and security header implementation to align with 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.
