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

Oryx Simulations AB is a specialized Swedish company providing fully integrated machine simulators designed to enhance safety, reduce operational costs, and minimize environmental impact. With over 20 years of experience, they serve industrial sectors such as mining, construction, ports, forestry, and cargo handling. Their business model focuses on delivering custom simulation solutions for operator training, equipment testing, and marketing support, positioning them as a trusted niche player with reputable clients including ABB, Volvo, Komatsu, and Epiroc. Technically, the website is built on the Squarespace platform, leveraging modern web technologies such as HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, with embedded YouTube videos and Typekit fonts. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and SEO practices, though performance is moderate due to the platform's inherent constraints. The technical infrastructure is stable and suitable for their business needs. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and includes a cookie consent banner compliant with EU regulations. However, it lacks advanced security headers and does not publish explicit security policies or incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected, but improvements in security best practices and transparency are recommended. Overall, the website reflects a professional and credible business presence with clear contact information and trust signals. The risk profile is low, but enhancing security policies and compliance documentation would strengthen their posture and customer confidence.

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  2. 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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 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';…

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

Oryx Simulations operates in a specialized market segment providing simulation technology for heavy machinery and industrial applications. Their competitive advantage lies in their long-standing experience and partnerships with major industry players. The business model is B2B, targeting equipment manufacturers and industrial operators requiring training and testing solutions. Revenue streams likely include custom software development, licensing, and training services. The company maintains a focused partnership ecosystem with industry leaders, enhancing credibility and market reach. Growth indicators include a professional web presence and client testimonials. Strategic observations suggest opportunities to expand digital marketing and formalize security and compliance frameworks to support scaling.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is moderate. The website uses HTTPS and a cookie consent mechanism, indicating awareness of basic security and privacy requirements. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduces protection against common web threats. There is no published security policy or incident response contact, which limits transparency and preparedness. GDPR compliance is partially addressed via cookie consent and privacy policy, but could be improved with clearer data protection officer contact and vulnerability disclosure. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found, suggesting a low immediate risk but room for improvement in security culture and documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance web security.
  2. Publish a detailed security policy and provide clear incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting and improve security posture.
  4. Enhance GDPR compliance by specifying data protection officer contact details and clarifying data retention policies.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to reflect current legal requirements and best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Squarespace CMS platform, which provides a stable and user-friendly infrastructure but limits deep customization and advanced performance tuning. The tech stack includes modern web standards and integrations such as YouTube embeds and Typekit fonts. Performance is moderate, typical for hosted CMS solutions. The site is mobile optimized with good SEO metadata and structured data for enhanced search visibility. Technical debt appears low, but opportunities exist to improve accessibility and security configurations. The platform's limitations should be considered when planning future technical enhancements or scaling.
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.
