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

Queen® is a well-established Danish family-owned company specializing in the breeding and supply of high-quality plants and flowers worldwide. With a history dating back to 1939, the company operates globally with a strong focus on innovation, sustainability, and quality. Their business model includes multiple specialized business units and subsidiaries, serving customers in over 75 countries. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image, targeting growers and consumers interested in sustainable and innovative horticultural products. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including jQuery, GSAP for animations, and integrates analytics and user tracking tools such as Google Analytics and Hotjar. The site is hosted on Azure CDN, ensuring reliable performance and availability. The design is responsive and optimized for mobile devices, with good SEO and accessibility considerations. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and implements a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. However, it lacks visible security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure information, which are recommended for enhanced trust and compliance. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the website demonstrates a mature digital presence with strong business credibility and good security posture. Strategic improvements in transparency around security policies and incident response would 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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  2. 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
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

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

Queen® holds a strong market position as a global flower brand with a legacy of over 80 years. Their competitive advantage lies in their broad assortment of innovative and sustainable plant varieties, supported by extensive breeding and growing facilities. The company targets both B2B and B2C segments, including growers and consumers worldwide. Revenue streams likely include sales of cuttings, finished plants, and flowers through their subsidiaries and partners. The partnership ecosystem includes dedicated business units for flowers, genetics, and regional operations such as Queen Türkiye. Growth indicators include continuous product range expansion and sustainability initiatives aligned with UN global goals. Strategically, Queen® leverages its family business heritage and innovation focus to maintain market leadership. The company’s digital presence supports brand recognition and customer engagement through multiple social media channels and newsletters. The absence of a formal security policy or incident response page suggests an opportunity to enhance corporate governance and stakeholder confidence.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforced and no visible exposure of sensitive data. The presence of a cookie consent banner indicates GDPR awareness and compliance. Use of reputable third-party analytics and tracking services is managed with user consent. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents a compliance gap and potential risk in incident handling. Security headers are not explicitly detected, which could improve protection against common web attacks. Overall, the security maturity is good but can be enhanced by formalizing policies and improving transparency to users and partners.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Add incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Enhance HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and libraries for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and stable technology stack including jQuery 3.5.1, GSAP for animations, and Bootstrap for responsive design. Hosting on Azure CDN provides reliable performance and scalability. The site loads scripts asynchronously to optimize performance. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured navigation. Mobile optimization is good with a responsive menu and layout. Accessibility is basic but present. There is no detected CMS, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Technical risks are minimal but could be reduced further by adding security headers and improving accessibility compliance.
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.
