59/100

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

Pelipal is a well-established German manufacturer and retailer specializing in high-quality bathroom furniture with a history spanning over 110 years. The company targets consumers and retail partners primarily in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, offering a broad product range including mounted and customizable bathroom furniture, mirrors, and accessories. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with good content quality and clear navigation. Technically, the site uses a traditional Apache server with jQuery and other JavaScript libraries, managed via the dialogperfect® CMS platform. However, the website lacks HTTPS support, which is a critical security shortfall. Security headers are minimal, and no advanced security policies or incident response information is provided. The cookie consent mechanism is implemented, indicating some privacy compliance efforts. WHOIS data confirms the domain's legitimacy and consistency with the business claims. Overall, the site is functional and informative but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and enhance trust.

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

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.

Technical appendix

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

Business context

Business profile

Pelipal holds a strong market position as a leading bathroom furniture brand in Germany, leveraging its long history and quality manufacturing. The business model focuses on manufacturing and retail distribution, supported by a dealer network and customer service. The website supports this model with product finders, detailed product categories, and dealer search functionality. The company maintains an active social media presence to engage customers. No direct revenue streams like e-commerce are evident on the site, suggesting sales occur through partners. The multilingual partner domains indicate international reach. The company appears medium-sized with a focus on retail and manufacturing sectors.

Security posture

The website's security posture is weak due to the absence of HTTPS and a valid SSL certificate, exposing users to potential data interception risks. Security headers are minimal and do not include modern protections like Content-Security-Policy or HSTS. No incident response or security policy information is available, indicating limited transparency in security governance. Cookie consent is implemented, but privacy compliance could be enhanced. No known vulnerabilities or malware were detected, but the lack of encryption is a critical vulnerability that must be addressed to meet modern security standards and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a valid SSL/TLS certificate and enable HTTPS site-wide immediately.
  2. Add and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Enable HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload to enforce HTTPS.
  4. Publish clear security and incident response policies to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Enhance privacy compliance by detailing data retention policies and improving cookie consent mechanisms.
Technical notes

Notes

The website runs on an Apache server and uses a mix of JavaScript libraries including jQuery 3.1.1, Swiper.js, Lightbox, and jquery.mmenu, managed through the dialogperfect® CMS. The site lacks modern TLS protocols and does not support HTTPS, which is a significant technical deficiency. Performance metrics are not available, but the page size and resource count are zero in the provided data, suggesting incomplete performance data or measurement issues. The site is mobile optimized with viewport meta tags and responsive design elements. SEO is supported with meta descriptions and structured navigation. Accessibility is basic with skip links and some ARIA roles but could be improved. Hosting provider details are not explicit but the IP address suggests a dedicated or VPS hosting environment. Overall, the technical stack is functional but outdated in security aspects and could benefit from modernization and performance optimization.
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.
