Risk levelLow

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

Schindler UK is a leading enterprise specializing in the manufacturing and servicing of lifts, escalators, and moving walks. The company operates as part of the global Schindler Group, providing Swiss-engineered vertical and horizontal transportation solutions tailored for residential, commercial, and public transit applications. Their website reflects a mature and professional digital presence, targeting building owners, architects, and infrastructure planners with detailed product and service information. Technically, the site is built on Adobe Experience Manager, leveraging modern web technologies and integrating multiple marketing and analytics tools with a strong emphasis on privacy compliance and user consent. Security posture is robust, featuring HTTPS, strict Content Security Policies, and no evident vulnerabilities. The absence of WHOIS data for the exact subdomain is due to domain naming rules, but the overall legitimacy is high given the brand consistency and professional presentation. Strategic recommendations include tightening script source policies and enhancing security headers to further improve security resilience.

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

2 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 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

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

Schindler UK holds a strong market position as a key player in the transportation manufacturing sector, focusing on lifts and escalators. Their business model centers on product sales, modernisation services, and digital media solutions within vertical transportation. The company targets a broad customer base including property managers and urban developers. The website's extensive regional domain network indicates a global partnership ecosystem supporting localized operations. The digital infrastructure supports marketing automation and analytics, enabling data-driven growth strategies. The brand maintains consistent messaging and trust signals, reinforcing its reputation in a competitive industry.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and a comprehensive Content Security Policy restricting resource loading to trusted domains. The use of third-party analytics and marketing scripts is managed via a consent mechanism, aligning with GDPR requirements. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the allowance of 'unsafe-inline' scripts for certain domains could be reviewed to minimize risk. The absence of explicit security or incident response policies on the site suggests an opportunity to enhance transparency and preparedness. Overall, the security maturity is high with room for incremental improvements.

Recommendations

  1. Review and restrict 'unsafe-inline' script sources in the Content Security Policy to reduce XSS risk.
  2. Implement additional security headers such as X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy, and Permissions-Policy.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  4. Conduct regular third-party script audits to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced via external resources.
  5. Enhance data retention disclosures related to analytics and marketing data to strengthen privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, a robust enterprise CMS platform, indicating a high level of technical maturity. It integrates multiple third-party services including Adobe Launch, Google Analytics, HubSpot, and OneTrust for consent management. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by the number of external scripts and resources. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags, Open Graph data, and structured JSON-LD markup. Technical risks include potential complexity from numerous third-party scripts and the need for ongoing maintenance of security policies to keep pace with evolving threats.
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.
