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

REICHLUNDPARTNER Werbeagentur is a well-established, large full-service advertising agency based in Austria with offices in Linz, Vienna, and Graz. The company offers a broad range of marketing and communication services including advertising, digital marketing, media planning, public relations, social media, event management, and innovative business model development through its Future Thinking division. The agency holds a strong market position supported by numerous industry awards and a large, skilled team. The website reflects a professional and comprehensive digital presence with multilingual support and clear branding. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern tools like Google Tag Manager and HubSpot integration, but suffers from a critical security shortfall due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support. This significantly impacts the security posture and user trust. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms are present and appear GDPR compliant. Contact information is clearly provided with multiple channels and physical addresses. Overall, the business credibility and content quality are high, but urgent security improvements are recommended.

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

7 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 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

The agency operates in the media sector, targeting both B2B and B2C clients seeking integrated marketing solutions. Its business model is based on full-service offerings spanning creative, digital, media, PR, social media, and event marketing. The company has a large team of specialists and generalists, positioning itself as a leading Austrian agency with a strong reputation for creativity and innovation. Revenue streams likely include project-based fees, retainer contracts, and media buying commissions. The agency is well-networked globally and locally, with partnerships such as the event agency Erlebnismarketing. Growth indicators include recent office expansions and multiple awards. The website content and structure support lead generation and client engagement through case studies, news, and contact forms.

Security posture

The current security posture is weak due to the lack of a valid SSL certificate and absence of HTTPS, exposing users to potential data interception risks. While some security headers like X-Content-Type-Options are present, critical best practices such as HSTS, OCSP stapling, and session resumption are missing. No explicit security or incident response policies are publicly disclosed, and no dedicated security contact channels are found. The use of Cloudflare CDN provides some protection and caching benefits but does not compensate for the missing SSL. The site does not expose known vulnerabilities or sensitive data in the HTML content. Immediate remediation of SSL/TLS configuration is essential to improve security and trust.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable and configure modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or 1.3) and disable insecure protocols.
  3. Implement HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload directives.
  4. Enable OCSP stapling to improve certificate status checking performance and security.
  5. Establish and publish a security policy and incident response contact information.
  6. Conduct regular security audits and update security headers to industry best practices.
  7. Enhance accessibility features and optimize site performance for faster load times.
  8. Maintain transparency on data retention policies and improve privacy compliance disclosures.

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with multilingual support via WPML. It uses jQuery and modern JavaScript libraries such as Splide.js for sliders. Google Tag Manager and HubSpot scripts are integrated for analytics and marketing automation. The site is hosted behind Cloudflare CDN, providing caching and some security features. Performance metrics are not explicitly provided but the site uses font preloading and responsive images, indicating moderate optimization. The site is mobile responsive with good navigation clarity and SEO optimization via Yoast SEO plugin. However, the lack of SSL and HTTPS is a significant technical deficiency. The site uses modern web fonts and has a well-structured HTML layout with JSON-LD structured data for SEO. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern but requires urgent security upgrades.
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.
