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

3 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

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

Proximion operates in the telecommunications sector, providing advanced fiber optic technology solutions primarily through customized Fiber Bragg Grating products. Their business model is B2B, targeting telecom operators, industrial sensing companies, and photonic equipment manufacturers. The company benefits from being part of the Hexatronic Group, which enhances its market credibility and reach. The website content and structure indicate a focus on quality, customer partnership, and innovation. Marketing efforts are supported by HubSpot tools, and social media presence on LinkedIn and YouTube supports brand engagement. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers suggests a controlled lead generation approach via contact forms. The company maintains compliance with privacy regulations and provides clear user consent options, which is critical for their European and global audience. No suspicious or inconsistent data was found in WHOIS or website content, reinforcing legitimacy.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and strong SSL configuration. Security headers are likely set by the hosting platform (HubSpot), providing protection against common web vulnerabilities. The use of OneTrust for cookie consent indicates attention to privacy and regulatory compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy page and incident response contact information limits transparency in security governance. There is no security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure mechanism visible, which could be improved to enhance trust and readiness for security incidents. Overall, the site is secure for visitors and customers but could benefit from enhanced security communication and incident response preparedness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide explicit incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures and improve transparency.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance website accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the HubSpot CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery 3.3.1 and HubSpot's own analytics and marketing scripts. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and preloading of CSS assets. The site is mobile optimized with responsive images and layout. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags including Open Graph and Twitter cards. Cookie consent is managed via OneTrust, providing granular user control. Hosting is likely provided by HubSpot, ensuring reliable uptime and security. Technical risks are minimal, but reliance on multiple third-party scripts requires ongoing monitoring. The site shows no signs of technical debt or deprecated technologies, indicating good maintenance and modernization practices.
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.
