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

6 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. 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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

Powertools operates in the industrial tools manufacturing sector with a focus on pneumatic and hydraulic tools, threading arms, and torque tools. Their business model includes product development, manufacturing, distribution, and after-sales services such as repair and calibration. The company targets industrial maintenance professionals and manufacturing sectors, including energy and transportation. They maintain partnerships with several recognized brands and provide extensive product catalogs and customer engagement through digital channels. The presence of multiple contact forms and booking options indicates a customer-centric approach. The company appears medium-sized with a consistent brand image and strong trust signals.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with mandatory HTTPS encryption and a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism ensuring GDPR compliance. No exposed credentials or sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The use of security and privacy plugins like Cookiebot and Caldera Forms with nonce tokens indicates attention to secure data handling. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options suggests potential areas for enhancement. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which could be improved to increase transparency and readiness. Overall, the security maturity is good but can be elevated with additional best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-XSS-Protection) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party plugins and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  5. Enhance monitoring and validation of form inputs to prevent injection attacks and ensure data integrity.

Notes

It employs modern technologies including React for dynamic components and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. Performance optimizations such as lazy loading of images and videos are implemented via WP Rocket. The site is mobile responsive and accessible, with good SEO metadata and structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine understanding. No major technical debt or outdated technologies were detected. Hosting provider details are not explicitly available from the HTML content.
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.
