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

safetytest.biz is a German-based business specializing in providing complete solutions for VDE electrical safety testing. The company offers a range of products and services including testing equipment and support portals, targeting professionals and businesses in the electrical safety sector. The website is professionally designed using WordPress CMS and integrates modern technologies such as Cookiebot for consent management and Matomo for analytics. The site is well-structured, mobile-optimized, and provides clear navigation to service and support resources. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place, though explicit security policies and incident response contacts are not published. WHOIS data is unavailable, which slightly impacts domain trustworthiness, but the overall website content and external links indicate a legitimate and professional operation.

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 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';…

  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.

    • 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

  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.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • 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

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 company operates in a niche market focused on VDE testing solutions, leveraging a business model that combines product sales with digital support and knowledge resources. Their market position appears stable within the German energy and technology sectors. The use of Atlassian-hosted portals for support and knowledge management suggests a mature approach to customer service. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers on the homepage indicates a preference for structured support channels. The company demonstrates good compliance with GDPR through comprehensive privacy and cookie policies. No certifications or security frameworks are explicitly mentioned, indicating potential areas for future trust-building.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and employs a detailed cookie consent mechanism, reflecting awareness of privacy and security best practices. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents a gap in transparency and readiness. No security headers were detected in the HTML content, which could be improved to enhance protection against common web attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the analysis. Overall, the security posture is good but could be strengthened by formalizing policies and adding security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  2. Implement and serve security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.
  5. Obtain and display relevant certifications or trust badges to increase business credibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with common plugins and libraries such as jQuery, Slick Carousel, and FontAwesome. It uses Cookiebot for cookie consent management and Matomo for analytics tracking. The site is mobile-optimized and performs moderately well, with good SEO and accessibility basics. Hosting provider details are not evident from the HTML content. The technical stack is modern and appropriate for the business domain, though there is room for improvement in security headers and 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.
