Risk levelHigh

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

Ovotherm International Handels GmbH is a medium-sized Austrian manufacturing company established in 1969, specializing in eco-friendly clear egg packaging made from recycled PET waste. The company positions itself as the global market leader in the egg packaging industry, targeting businesses within the egg supply chain. Their website reflects a professional and consistent brand image, offering detailed product information, environmental benefits, and company insights. Technically, the site uses the ProcessWire CMS with modern frontend libraries such as GSAP and Tailwind CSS, providing a good user experience and mobile optimization. However, the website critically lacks a valid SSL/TLS certificate, resulting in no HTTPS support and weak security posture. Privacy and cookie policies are present and GDPR compliant, and contact information is clearly provided, enhancing business credibility. Social media presence on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn supports trust and engagement.

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

8 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

      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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: PostgreSQL

      Port 5432 (PostgreSQL) is publicly accessible - PostgreSQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to PostgreSQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  4. 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';…

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 · found on this site
  • 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

Ovotherm operates in the manufacturing sector with a focus on sustainable packaging solutions for the egg industry. Their business model centers on producing and supplying innovative, eco-friendly packaging products globally. The company leverages its long-standing market presence since 1969 to maintain a leadership position. Their website content and navigation are well-structured, targeting industry professionals and buyers. The absence of terms of service and explicit security policies suggests areas for improvement in formalizing customer and partner agreements. No advertising or analytics tools are detected, indicating a privacy-conscious approach or limited digital marketing activities. The company maintains active social media channels to support brand visibility and customer engagement.

Security posture

The website's security posture is weak due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of HTTPS support, exposing users to potential data interception risks. While some security headers like X-Frame-Options and X-XSS-Protection are present, critical modern TLS protocols are disabled, and HSTS is not effectively enforced. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is available, limiting transparency on security practices. Cookie management includes consent mechanisms, aligning with GDPR requirements. Overall, the site requires urgent improvements in SSL/TLS implementation and enhanced security policies to protect user data and build trust.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site immediately.
  2. Enable and configure modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3) and disable outdated protocols.
  3. Implement and enforce HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload flags to prevent protocol downgrade attacks.
  4. Publish clear terms of service and security policy pages to formalize user agreements and security commitments.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and incident response readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the ProcessWire CMS platform, utilizing Apache as the web server. Frontend technologies include GSAP for animations, Tailwind CSS for styling, and utility libraries such as Tingle.js for modals, js.cookie for cookie management, Popper.js, and Tippy.js for tooltips. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good navigation clarity. Performance metrics are not provided, but the use of modern CSS frameworks suggests moderate to good performance. The lack of SSL/TLS and modern security protocols represents a significant technical risk. DNS records indicate proper MX configuration using Outlook protection services, and no DNSSEC or CAA records are present. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern but requires critical security upgrades.
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.
