Risk levelHigh

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

Rosenbauer International AG is a globally recognized leader in firefighting technology, manufacturing a wide range of firefighting vehicles, equipment, and digital solutions. With over 150 years of history, the company serves fire departments, municipal authorities, industrial clients, and airports worldwide. The website reflects a mature digital presence with multilingual support and comprehensive product and service information. Technically, the site is built on TYPO3 CMS with PHP backend and uses Amazon CloudFront CDN for delivery. However, the security posture is weakened by an invalid SSL certificate, which undermines HTTPS protection despite the presence of several security headers. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear privacy and cookie policies and GDPR adherence. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but requires urgent SSL remediation to improve security and user trust.

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

6 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

    • 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.

    • 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 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

Rosenbauer holds a strong market position as a full-range supplier in firefighting technology, offering vehicles, equipment, stationary systems, and telematics. Its business model focuses on manufacturing and after-sales services including maintenance and refurbishment. The company targets emergency services and industrial sectors globally, supported by a broad service network. The website's linkage to subsidiaries and partners like Rosenbauer America and GS Brandschutz indicates a well-established partnership ecosystem. The digital presence supports marketing and customer engagement through newsletters, blogs, and social media. The company’s longevity and comprehensive offerings position it as a trusted industry leader.

Security posture

The website demonstrates moderate security maturity with several HTTP security headers implemented, including HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-XSS-Protection, and Referrer-Policy. However, the lack of a valid SSL certificate critically impacts the security posture, exposing users to potential risks and undermining trust. No explicit security policy or incident response contacts are found, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. The use of Matomo analytics suggests privacy-conscious tracking. Overall, the site requires immediate SSL certificate renewal and enhanced incident response visibility to meet best practices and compliance standards.

Recommendations

  1. Renew and properly configure SSL certificates to enable HTTPS and improve security posture.
  2. Enable full HSTS including subdomains and preload to enforce HTTPS.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Upgrade PHP version to a supported and secure release to reduce vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and mobile optimization for better user experience.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by TYPO3 CMS with PHP 7.4.33 backend and uses jQuery 1.8.1 for frontend scripting. It is served via nginx 1.25.0 and uses Amazon CloudFront as CDN. The site includes multiple CSS and JS compressed assets, indicating optimization efforts. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags and hreflang attributes for multilingual support. However, performance metrics are missing, and SSL configuration is poor due to invalid certificates. The technology stack is moderately modern but would benefit from updates to PHP and frontend libraries. The site is mobile optimized with good navigation and content structure but could improve 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.
