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

Roth Elektrotechnik is a well-established electrical services company based in Großwallstadt, Germany, with over 18 years of experience. The company specializes in photovoltaic systems, electrical engineering, smart home KNX technology, and construction site power supply rental. Their market position is that of a trusted regional master craftsman business emphasizing quality, reliability, and customer satisfaction. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image targeting residential and commercial customers in the local region. Technically, the website is built on Joomla CMS with modern frontend technologies such as Bootstrap, GLightbox, and AOS for animations. It is mobile-optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. Cookie consent is implemented via TermsFeed scripts, indicating attention to privacy compliance. However, no advanced analytics or tracking services are detected, suggesting a privacy-conscious approach. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses cookie consent mechanisms but lacks visible security headers and does not provide explicit security or incident response policies. The domain WHOIS data is consistent with the business claims, showing a long registration period without privacy protection, supporting legitimacy. No critical vulnerabilities or suspicious patterns were detected. Overall, the website scores well in content quality, technical implementation, privacy compliance, and business credibility, with moderate security posture. Strategic improvements in security headers and incident response disclosures could further enhance trust and security maturity.

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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

  3. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • High

      No DMARC record found

      DMARC provides email authentication and reporting

      What to do: Add DMARC record: "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@yourdomain.com"

  4. 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

Roth Elektrotechnik operates in the energy sector, focusing on electrical installations and renewable energy solutions such as photovoltaic systems. Their business model is service-oriented, targeting both private homeowners and commercial clients in the Aschaffenburg and Miltenberg regions. The company leverages its 18+ years of experience as a competitive advantage, emphasizing quality craftsmanship and customer service. The website's testimonials and project portfolios reinforce their market credibility. They maintain a partnership with REIKEM GbR for web development, indicating a professional digital presence. The company appears to have a stable local market position with potential for growth in the renewable energy segment. No subsidiaries or parent companies are indicated, suggesting an independent small business structure.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a baseline security posture with mandatory HTTPS and a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents a missed opportunity to harden the site against common web attacks. No incident response or security policy information is provided, which limits transparency and preparedness perception. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure policy is found, reducing avenues for responsible vulnerability reporting. The domain registration is stable and transparent, which supports trust. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be improved by implementing recommended headers, publishing security policies, and enabling DNSSEC.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  5. Regularly review and update cookie and privacy policies to maintain GDPR compliance and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Joomla CMS with Bootstrap framework and several modern JavaScript libraries for UI enhancements such as GLightbox and AOS animations. The site is mobile responsive and has a clear navigation structure. Performance is moderate, with no obvious broken elements or errors. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured JSON-LD data describing the organization, website, and articles. Cookie consent is managed by TermsFeed scripts, indicating a privacy-aware implementation. No advanced analytics or tracking scripts were detected, which reduces privacy risks but limits marketing insights. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. The site could benefit from improved accessibility features and enhanced security headers to reduce technical risks.
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.
