Security score

77/100

Risk levelLow

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

PWN is a well-established regional utility company based in the Netherlands, specializing in sustainable drinking water supply and nature management in the Noord-Holland region. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand presence, targeting residents and businesses in the area with services such as water supply and water meter reading. The digital infrastructure leverages modern web technologies including Angular, Cookiebot for consent management, and analytics platforms like Piwik PRO and Google Tag Manager, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place; however, the absence of explicit security headers and published security policies suggests room for improvement. Privacy compliance is partially addressed through cookie consent but lacks a visible privacy policy and terms of service, which are critical for full GDPR compliance. Overall, the website is trustworthy and safe for general audiences, with no adult or questionable content detected.

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.

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

PWN holds a strong market position as a regional leader in water supply and nature management within Noord-Holland. Its business model focuses on providing essential utility services with an emphasis on sustainability and innovation. The website content and metadata suggest a clear target audience of local residents and businesses. The company employs modern digital tools for user engagement and analytics but lacks visible contact details and formalized security or privacy policies on the site, which could impact customer trust and regulatory compliance. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries from the analyzed data. The use of Cookiebot and analytics platforms indicates an awareness of data privacy and marketing needs, though further transparency would benefit the company’s compliance posture.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS, uses cookie consent management, and integrates reputable analytics services, which are positive security indicators. However, the lack of detected security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is published, limiting transparency and preparedness for security incidents. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified in the provided content. The security score is moderate, with recommendations to implement additional security headers, publish security policies, and provide clear incident response contacts to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement and configure security headers (e.g., Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options) to strengthen website security.
  3. Add a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Provide clear and accessible contact information including emails and phone numbers for customer support and security incidents.
  5. Regularly review and update analytics and tracking practices to ensure minimal user tracking and compliance with privacy regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Angular framework, indicating a modern single-page application architecture. It integrates Cookiebot for cookie consent management and uses Piwik PRO and Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking. The site appears mobile-optimized with responsive design elements. Performance is moderate, with no explicit indicators of slow loading but also no advanced optimization signals. Accessibility features are basic, with room for improvement to meet higher standards. No CMS or hosting provider details were identified from the content. The technical stack supports a professional user experience but could benefit from enhanced SEO and accessibility optimizations.
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.
