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

      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

    • 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

  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 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

The company targets businesses seeking digital transformation and marketing services, leveraging a business model focused on consulting, design, development, and marketing. Their competitive advantage lies in their comprehensive service offering, strong client portfolio, and presence in the Austrian market. The website content and client logos indicate a medium-sized enterprise with a focus on technology sector clients. Marketing tools such as SendGrid and HubSpot are integrated, and analytics are handled via Matomo, indicating a preference for privacy-conscious analytics. The company maintains active social media channels to engage with their audience and promote their services.

Security posture

The current security posture reveals significant gaps, notably the lack of a valid SSL certificate and incomplete HTTPS implementation, which exposes the site to risks such as data interception and loss of user trust. Security headers are partially implemented, including HSTS, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection, but HSTS is not fully enabled. No vulnerabilities related to known SSL/TLS attacks were detected, but the absence of session resumption and OCSP stapling reduces security robustness. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are publicly available, which could impact the company's readiness to handle security incidents. Privacy policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, reflecting a good data protection culture.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable full HTTPS across the site.
  2. Enable and configure HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload to enforce secure connections.
  3. Add a cookie policy and consent mechanism to comply fully with privacy regulations.
  4. Publish an incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve security transparency.
  5. Enable OCSP stapling and session resumption to enhance SSL/TLS performance and security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, hosted on AWS infrastructure, and uses modern web technologies such as responsive images, lazy loading, and HTML5 video. Analytics are performed using Matomo, a privacy-friendly alternative to Google Analytics. The site has good SEO and accessibility basics, with proper meta tags and language attributes. Performance data is missing, but the use of preconnect and preload hints suggests optimization efforts. The site is mobile optimized and has clear navigation and professional design. However, the invalid SSL certificate is a critical technical debt that must be addressed to avoid security warnings and loss of user trust.
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.
