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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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';…

  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.

    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

PMI Rope operates in the manufacturing and retail sectors focused on safety and rescue equipment. Their competitive advantage lies in their long-standing industry presence, product quality, and deep understanding of vertical safety needs. Revenue streams include direct product sales, training courses, and consulting services. The target customers are professionals in rescue, climbing, and rope access fields. The company maintains a dealer network and partners with recognized brands. Growth indicators include active product launches and training offerings. The partnership ecosystem includes training platforms and industry organizations. Strategic observations highlight the importance of enhancing privacy compliance and security transparency to strengthen customer trust and regulatory adherence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protections in place. However, the absence of DNSSEC, security.txt, and explicit security policies indicates gaps in security governance and incident response readiness. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected, but the lack of security headers like Content-Security-Policy reduces defense-in-depth. Privacy compliance is minimal, with no cookie consent mechanism or GDPR indicators. The use of multiple third-party tracking scripts increases the attack surface and privacy risks. Overall, the security posture is adequate for business operations but requires enhancements in policy transparency, DNS security, and privacy controls to mitigate risks and comply with regulations.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to protect against DNS spoofing and improve domain security.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  3. Implement a cookie consent mechanism to inform users and obtain consent for tracking technologies.
  4. Add a security.txt file and disclose vulnerability reporting channels to improve incident response.
  5. Enhance HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  6. Review and minimize third-party tracking scripts to reduce privacy risks and improve performance.
  7. Improve accessibility features to meet WCAG standards and enhance user experience for all users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a mature WordPress platform using WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality and Elementor for page building. It integrates several modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery, Swiper.js, and Smart Slider 3 for interactive UI components. Marketing and analytics tools include Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Sendinblue, and Brevo SDK. Hosting is supported by Cloudflare DNS and CDN, providing good availability and moderate performance. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata. However, some technical debt is evident in the lack of advanced security headers and incomplete privacy compliance. Opportunities exist to modernize security configurations and streamline third-party integrations to enhance performance and compliance.
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.
