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

Printkultur is a well-established printing and study supply service provider based in Graz, Austria, primarily serving the academic community, especially TU Graz students and staff. Founded in 1977, the company offers a broad range of services including digital printing, copying, plotting, scanning, and binding, alongside retail of study materials and promotional items. Their market position is that of a trusted local partner with strong ties to educational institutions, supported by visible partnerships and consistent branding. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with WooCommerce for e-commerce capabilities, integrating modern tools such as Google reCAPTCHA and Borlabs Cookie for privacy compliance. The site demonstrates good SEO practices and mobile optimization, although some legacy libraries like an older jQuery version present minor security concerns. Performance is moderate, and accessibility is basic but functional. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR. However, explicit security policies and incident response contacts are absent, and some security headers are not clearly present. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found, but updating libraries and adding security documentation would enhance posture. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and compliant with privacy regulations, serving its niche audience effectively. Strategic improvements in security policy transparency and technical updates would further strengthen its risk profile and operational resilience.

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

10 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

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: SMB

      Port 445 (SMB) is publicly accessible - SMB - Windows file sharing, high risk

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to SMB using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

Printkultur operates in the education and retail sectors, focusing on printing and study-related products for the academic community in Graz. Their competitive advantage lies in their long-standing presence since 1977, personalized service, and strong partnerships with local universities and educational institutions. The business model combines service provision (printing, binding) with retail sales (study materials, promotional items). Revenue streams likely include direct sales, service fees, and possibly institutional contracts. The target customers are students, faculty, and staff of TU Graz and affiliated organizations. Growth indicators include digital configurators for binding and plotting, and an active online presence. The partnership ecosystem includes multiple educational institutions, enhancing credibility and market reach. Operationally, the company balances physical locations with an online platform, indicating a hybrid approach to customer engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and Google reCAPTCHA is implemented to protect forms from abuse. Cookie consent is managed via Borlabs Cookie with granular user preferences, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the use of an outdated jQuery version introduces potential vulnerabilities. There is no published security policy or incident response contact, which limits transparency and preparedness. Security headers are not explicitly confirmed, suggesting room for improvement. No signs of malware, phishing, or exposed credentials were detected. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but would benefit from modernization of libraries, explicit security documentation, and enhanced header configurations to mitigate risks and improve trust.

Recommendations

  1. Update jQuery and other JavaScript libraries to their latest secure versions to reduce vulnerability exposure.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Implement and verify security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  5. Maintain and regularly audit cookie consent mechanisms and privacy compliance to align with evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality. It uses jQuery 1.12.4, which is outdated and should be updated. The site integrates Borlabs Cookie for cookie management and Google reCAPTCHA for bot protection. SEO is managed via Yoast SEO plugin, and fonts are loaded from external services. The site is moderately performant with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. Hosting provider details are not explicitly available. The technical stack is typical for a medium-sized service and retail website but would benefit from modernization and security hardening to reduce technical debt and improve resilience.
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.
