Risk levelLow

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

Puratos.at is the Austrian localized website of Puratos, a large international manufacturer specializing in bakery, patisserie, and chocolate products. The company offers a broad portfolio of innovative ingredients and solutions aimed at professional customers in the food manufacturing sector. The website is well-structured, professionally designed, and provides extensive product information, recipes, and sustainability commitments, targeting B2B clients in Austria. Technically, the site is built on Adobe Experience Manager with modern frontend technologies and includes GDPR-compliant privacy and cookie policies. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, though some security headers could be improved. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain trust assessment, but the website content and structure strongly indicate a legitimate and professional business presence.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

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

Puratos operates in the manufacturing sector, focusing on bakery and confectionery ingredients and solutions. The business model is B2B, serving professional bakers, patissiers, and chocolatiers. The website reflects a mature digital presence with localized content for Austria, indicating a strong market position and commitment to customer engagement through recipes, product innovation, and sustainability. The company leverages a global network of related domains and platforms for marketing and customer interaction. The lack of direct contact emails or phone numbers on the site suggests a preference for controlled contact via forms, typical for large enterprises. Certifications and sustainability commitments are highlighted, reinforcing brand trust and compliance.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and includes a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not present or not easily discoverable. Security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not explicitly found and should be implemented to enhance protection. The absence of WHOIS data is a concern for domain trust but does not directly impact website security. Overall, the security posture is good but could be strengthened with additional headers and transparency on security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish explicit security and incident response policies with contact channels for vulnerability reporting.
  3. Consider providing direct verified contact emails or phone numbers for customer and security inquiries to improve transparency.
  4. Regularly audit third-party libraries and scripts for vulnerabilities and update accordingly.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager CMS, utilizing modern frontend libraries such as Slick Carousel and FontAwesome. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and marketing tracking. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO practices including meta tags and alternate hreflang links for internationalization. Performance is moderate with some room for optimization. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable digital presence suitable for a large manufacturing enterprise.
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.
