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

Rotax Limited is a well-established industrial electrical solutions provider based in Sri Lanka with over 60 years of experience. The company offers a broad range of services including automation, system integration, manufacturing, contracting, and supply of electrical products. It operates associate companies such as Rotax Global LTD in Canada and Roche Engineering Lanka, expanding its market reach internationally. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with good content quality and clear navigation. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with WooCommerce and uses modern plugins such as Elementor and Yoast SEO, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. Performance and mobile optimization are good, though accessibility features are basic. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data, but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies. The site lacks visible privacy and cookie policies, which is a compliance gap that should be addressed. Contact information is primarily via forms and social media links, with no direct emails or phone numbers explicitly labeled. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional but could improve privacy compliance and security transparency. Strategic recommendations include implementing privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms, adding security headers, publishing incident response contacts, and enhancing accessibility and compliance features to strengthen trust and regulatory adherence.

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

11 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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: PostgreSQL

      Port 5432 (PostgreSQL) is publicly accessible - PostgreSQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to PostgreSQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  4. 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"

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 · found on this site
  • 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

Rotax Limited holds a strong market position in Sri Lanka's electrical engineering sector, leveraging over five decades of experience and a diversified service portfolio. Its business model focuses on B2B industrial solutions, including automation, manufacturing, and contracting services. The company benefits from a global network through its associate companies, enabling access to international markets such as Canada. Key competitive advantages include ISO certification, a high customer rating, and a large project portfolio. The company targets industrial clients and engineering firms seeking high-quality electrical solutions. Growth indicators include recent projects, awards, and expansion into new markets. The partnership ecosystem includes related entities like RTX Smart Energy and Roche Engineering Lanka, supporting a comprehensive service offering.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security robustness. There is no publicly available security policy or incident response contact information, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. Compliance gaps include missing privacy and cookie policies, which are critical for GDPR and other data protection regulations. The site uses standard WordPress and WooCommerce plugins, which should be regularly audited for vulnerabilities. Overall, the security posture is adequate but requires enhancements in policy publication and technical controls to meet best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with clear consent mechanisms to ensure GDPR and global privacy compliance.
  2. Implement and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Provide a publicly accessible security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users and comply with accessibility standards.
  5. Regularly audit and update all plugins and themes to mitigate vulnerabilities and maintain a secure environment.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using WooCommerce for e-commerce capabilities. It employs popular plugins such as Elementor for page building, Yoast SEO for search engine optimization, and SiteGround Optimizer for performance enhancements. The site loads with moderate speed and is mobile optimized with responsive design. The use of external fonts from Google Fonts and integration of Facebook SDK for social features are noted. Technical debt appears low, but the absence of certain security headers and privacy compliance features indicates areas for modernization. The infrastructure is hosted likely on SiteGround, a reputable hosting provider, supporting stable performance. Overall, the technical implementation supports business operations effectively but can be improved for security and 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.
