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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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.

    • 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

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

The company holds a strong market position in the German generics pharmaceutical sector, leveraging its parent company Teva's global resources. Its business model centers on affordable, high-quality medicines complemented by health education and digital tools. The website supports multiple user segments including pharmacies, medical professionals, and end consumers. Partnerships with industry associations like Pro Generika enhance credibility. The digital ecosystem integrates analytics and marketing tools with user consent, reflecting a mature approach to data privacy and user engagement.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and integrates a consent management platform (Usercentrics) to comply with privacy laws. Security headers are implied but not explicitly visible in the HTML. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure pages are found, indicating room for improvement in transparency. Forms appear secured by TYPO3's mechanisms. No exposed sensitive data or known vulnerabilities were detected. Incident response contact channels are not published, which could be enhanced to improve security readiness and trust.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  2. Implement and expose a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Verify and explicitly configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to move from basic to good or excellent compliance.
  5. Continue monitoring and updating third-party libraries and tracking tools to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by TYPO3 CMS, a robust and scalable content management system widely used in enterprise environments. It uses RequireJS for JavaScript module loading and integrates Google Tag Manager and Google Optimize for analytics and A/B testing. Usercentrics CMP manages cookie consent, reflecting GDPR compliance. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and includes SEO best practices such as meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Hosting appears to be managed within the Teva group infrastructure, ensuring alignment with corporate IT standards. Performance is moderate, with lazy loading of images and asynchronous script loading to optimize user experience.
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.
