Both readouts depend on the site's pages, which could not be loaded in this scan.

Priority findings

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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.

Their business model includes product manufacturing, patient education, and professional services. The company maintains a strong partnership ecosystem, including a long-standing relationship with the Paralympics. Their digital presence supports both B2C and B2B audiences, with dedicated sections for patients and professionals.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communications. Consent management is implemented via Usercentrics, supporting GDPR compliance. No exposed sensitive data or critical vulnerabilities were detected in the HTML content. The site uses third-party analytics and optimization tools like Google Analytics and VWO, with appropriate consent mechanisms in place. However, explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not clearly present and should be reviewed. Incident response and security policy pages are not found, indicating areas for improvement in transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is good but can be enhanced by publishing detailed security policies and incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Publish explicit security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Create and publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate risks from external dependencies.
  4. Enhance form input validation and sanitization to prevent potential injection attacks.
  5. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to reflect evolving regulations and 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.
