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

ROTORWORKS is a German company specializing in wind energy services, including installation, maintenance, and repair of wind turbines. Established in 1995, the company emphasizes safety and innovation as core values. The website is professionally designed using WordPress with modern plugins, providing a good user experience and clear navigation primarily in German with English support. Contact is mainly via a contact form, with no direct emails or phone numbers visible on the homepage. The company targets businesses and professionals in the renewable energy sector and potential employees seeking careers in this field. Technically, the site uses a standard WordPress stack with jQuery and popular page builder and slider plugins, showing moderate performance and good mobile optimization. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled but lacks advanced security headers and published security policies. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism. Overall, the site is trustworthy and credible but could improve in transparency and security documentation.

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

9 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

  2. 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.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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

ROTORWORKS operates in the energy sector focusing on wind power services. Their market position is that of an established medium-sized service provider with a history dating back to 1995. Their competitive advantage lies in their focus on safety and continuous innovation. The business model revolves around providing technical services to wind turbine operators and maintaining a skilled workforce, as evidenced by their career section. The website content and structure suggest a B2B and B2E (business to employee) focus. There is no evidence of direct e-commerce or affiliate partnerships. The company appears to maintain a consistent brand identity and targets the German market primarily.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security posture. HTTPS is properly configured, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others reduces protection against common web attacks. No sensitive data exposure or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates room for improvement in security transparency and readiness. Forms are present but no explicit anti-CSRF or input validation mechanisms are visible from the HTML alone. Overall, the security posture is functional but could be enhanced to meet higher standards and compliance requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure security headers (CSP, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options) to enhance protection against common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply with EU cookie laws and improve privacy compliance.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Consider creating and hosting a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct an accessibility audit to improve compliance and user experience for all users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using popular plugins such as Slider Revolution and WPBakery Page Builder, indicating a standard and widely supported technology stack. The use of jQuery and other JavaScript libraries is current but not cutting-edge. Performance is moderate, with some optimization possible. The site is mobile responsive and uses Google Fonts for typography. No advanced frameworks or headless CMS architectures are detected. Hosting provider details are not explicit. The site could benefit from performance optimizations such as caching and image compression. Technical debt appears low but the site lacks modern security headers and privacy mechanisms, which are important for compliance and security posture.
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.
