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

Schindler Elevator Corporation is a leading global manufacturer and service provider of elevators, escalators, and moving walkways, with a strong presence in the United States and worldwide. The company offers a comprehensive range of products and services including installation, maintenance, modernization, and digital building solutions such as Schindler Ahead and Schindler PORT. Their market position is strong, supported by a large workforce and extensive global operations. The website reflects a mature digital presence with professional design, clear navigation, and multilingual support. Technically, the site is built on Adobe Experience Manager and integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools, demonstrating digital maturity. However, a critical security gap exists due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support, severely impacting the security posture. Security headers are well configured, but the lack of encryption is a major vulnerability. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional but urgently requires SSL implementation to protect user data and maintain trust.

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

7 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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

  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. 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';…

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 operates in the transportation and manufacturing sectors, focusing on vertical mobility solutions for various building types including residential, commercial, healthcare, and public transit. Their business model combines product manufacturing with extensive service offerings such as maintenance, repair, and modernization. The company targets building owners, architects, contractors, and facility managers, leveraging a global network of over 69,000 employees and more than 1,000 branch offices. Their competitive advantage lies in innovation, safety culture, and comprehensive digital solutions. The website supports their business intelligence by providing detailed product information, industry-specific solutions, and digital tools for architects and specifiers. Partnerships and related domains like schindlerplan.com enhance their ecosystem. The company shows strong growth indicators and a commitment to sustainability and compliance.

Security posture

The current security posture of the website is weak due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of HTTPS support, which exposes users to potential data interception and undermines trust. Despite this, the site implements several security best practices including strict transport security headers, frame options, content type options, and a restrictive permissions policy. No known vulnerabilities such as Heartbleed or POODLE are detected. The site uses modern security headers and limits browser features to reduce attack surface. However, the lack of encryption is a critical issue that must be addressed immediately. There is no visible incident response or security policy information on the site, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. Overall, the security maturity is low but with potential for improvement.

Recommendations

  1. Acquire and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site immediately.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3) and disable deprecated protocols.
  3. Implement OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve SSL performance and security.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response information to increase transparency and trust.
  5. Regularly audit and update security headers and permissions policies to maintain best practices.
  6. Enhance privacy compliance by explicitly naming a Data Protection Officer or contact point if applicable.
  7. Monitor and manage third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure privacy and security compliance.
  8. Improve accessibility features and mobile optimization continuously to maintain excellent user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, leveraging Adobe Launch for tag management and integrating multiple analytics and marketing platforms including Google Analytics, HubSpot, and OneTrust for cookie consent. The site uses jQuery and modern lazy loading for images, supporting responsive design and accessibility. Hosting is via Fastly CDN, providing global performance benefits. Despite the advanced tech stack, the site lacks a valid SSL certificate, which is a major technical and security deficiency. Performance data is not available, but the use of CDNs and lazy loading suggests moderate to good performance. The site is well-structured with comprehensive metadata, Open Graph tags, and JSON-LD structured data supporting SEO. There is room for improvement in SSL configuration and performance monitoring.
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.
