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

The website www.pattex.es serves as the Spanish brand portal for Pattex adhesives, a product line under the global enterprise Henkel. It provides product information, DIY project guidance, and news updates targeted at general consumers interested in adhesives and home improvement. The site is professionally designed, mobile-optimized, and built on Adobe Experience Manager, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. It integrates modern telemetry and analytics tools such as Adobe Analytics, Google Analytics, and OpenTelemetry for performance and user behavior tracking. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent managed via OneTrust, although explicit privacy and terms of service pages are not found, which is a compliance gap. No contact information or incident response channels are visible, limiting direct communication for security or business inquiries. Overall, the site is trustworthy, legitimate, and well-positioned as a brand information resource within the manufacturing 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. 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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  2. 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.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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 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

Pattex.es operates as a key digital touchpoint for Henkel's adhesive products in Spain, supporting brand awareness and customer engagement. The business model focuses on product marketing and consumer education rather than direct e-commerce. The site is part of a broader international network of Pattex domains tailored to regional markets, indicating a global brand strategy. The use of enterprise-grade CMS and analytics platforms suggests significant investment in digital maturity. The absence of direct contact details and privacy policy links may reflect a centralized approach to customer service and compliance handled at the parent company level. The site’s target audience includes DIY enthusiasts and professional users seeking adhesive solutions. Henkel’s strong market position and brand recognition underpin the website’s credibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforced and integration of cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR. The use of modern telemetry and analytics frameworks indicates attention to monitoring and performance. However, the lack of visible security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents a gap in transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Security headers are presumed but not explicitly confirmed. Recommendations include publishing privacy and security policies, adding security contact channels, and ensuring all security headers are properly configured and documented. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with better transparency and incident readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear and accessible privacy policy and terms of service linked from the homepage.
  2. Add visible contact information including security incident response emails (e.g., security@ or abuse@).
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  4. Verify and explicitly set all recommended security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy).
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and analytics tools for security and privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, leveraging Adobe Helix RUM and OpenTelemetry for real user monitoring and telemetry. It uses OneTrust for cookie consent management and integrates Google Tag Manager and Adobe Analytics for tracking. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. Performance is fast with preconnect hints and deferred script loading. The technical stack is modern and enterprise-grade, supporting scalability and maintainability. No technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected. Opportunities include enhancing SEO with more comprehensive metadata and improving privacy compliance documentation.
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.
