Risk levelMedium

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

Olsberg GmbH is a historic German family-owned manufacturing company with over 440 years of history, specializing in three main business units: casting technology, heating technology, and fine sheet metal technology. The company offers customized, high-precision products and solutions serving various industrial sectors. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image, supported by multiple subsidiary domains and active social media presence. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern libraries and frameworks, providing a good user experience and mobile optimization. Security posture is solid with HTTPS, reCAPTCHA, and cookie consent mechanisms, though some security headers could be improved. The lack of WHOIS transparency slightly reduces trust but does not outweigh the strong business signals and compliance with GDPR. Overall, the site is well-maintained and credible.

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

6 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. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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. 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

      No DMARC record found

      DMARC provides email authentication and reporting

      What to do: Add DMARC record: "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@yourdomain.com"

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.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention olsberg.com, from OffSeq Breach.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Olsberg GmbH operates in the manufacturing and energy sectors, targeting industrial clients requiring specialized casting, heating, and sheet metal solutions. The company leverages its long-standing heritage and diversified business units to maintain a strong market position in Germany. Its business model focuses on customized system solutions, supported by a professional online presence and active recruitment efforts. The company ecosystem includes multiple related domains representing subsidiaries or specialized units. The website content and social media engagement indicate a growth-oriented and customer-focused approach.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a good SSL configuration and uses security best practices such as reCAPTCHA on forms and a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not detected, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the analysis. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact is a gap in transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is good but could be strengthened with additional headers and documented policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance web security.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update all WordPress plugins and core to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enable DNSSEC for the domain to improve DNS security and trust.
  5. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve security communication.

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.
