Security report for proact.de
Proact DE · Technology · Germany
Low risk. 1 critical or high finding in SSL/TLS.
Proact Deutschland is a large, established IT service provider specializing in data and information management, cloud services, and data center solutions. Positioned as a leading European specialist, the company targets businesses seeking comprehensive IT strategy consulting, implementation, and operational support. The website reflects a professional digital presence with clear branding and consistent messaging aligned with its market position. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using modern plugins such as Yoast SEO Premium and Elementor, supported by SiteGround hosting inferred from optimization plugins. The site employs HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and integrates Cookiebot for GDPR-compliant cookie consent management. Google Tag Manager and reCAPTCHA are used for analytics and bot protection respectively, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. From a security perspective, the site demonstrates good practices including HTTPS enforcement and consent management. However, it lacks explicit security headers, published security policies, and incident response contacts, which are recommended for enhanced security posture. No vulnerabilities or suspicious activities were detected in the analysis. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professionally maintained, with moderate to good scores in content quality, technical implementation, security, privacy compliance, and business credibility. Strategic improvements include publishing privacy and security policies, adding security headers, and providing clear contact information for incident response to further strengthen trust and compliance.

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.
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 Protocols Supported
Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1
What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions
- CWE-327
- OWASP A04:2025
- ASVS V12.1.1
- RFC 8996
- RFC 7568
- Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: tls_versions TLSv1.2, TLSv1.3
- NIS2 21(2)(h)

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.

Notes
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.
