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

Schmied & Fellmann is a medium-sized Austrian company specializing in electrical engineering services including consulting, planning, installation, and maintenance. They also operate a retail business offering electrical devices, installation materials, postal services, and school and office supplies. The company targets businesses and institutions primarily in the St. Pölten and Wilhelmsburg regions. Their market position is solid locally, supported by certifications such as 'Leitbetrieb' and a broad portfolio of services and references. Technically, the website is built on TYPO3 CMS with common frontend libraries and demonstrates good content quality and navigation. However, the site lacks a valid SSL certificate, serving content over HTTP only, which significantly impacts security posture. No modern security headers or cookie consent mechanisms are implemented, and no analytics or tracking scripts are detected. Overall, the website is functional and professional but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and improve trust. Strategic recommendations include obtaining a valid SSL certificate, implementing security headers, and adding privacy compliance features.

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  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 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"

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 the energy sector with a focus on electrical engineering and retail. Their business model combines service provision with product sales and postal services, targeting local businesses and consumers. The presence of detailed project references and certifications indicates a mature business with a stable market position. The company leverages partnerships with recognized brands and maintains a physical presence with multiple locations. Growth indicators include active job postings and recent certifications. The website content and structure support a professional image, though digital marketing and analytics capabilities appear minimal or absent.

Security posture

The current security posture is weak due to the absence of HTTPS and a valid SSL certificate, exposing users to potential data interception risks. The lack of security headers and DNS security features such as DNSSEC and DMARC further weakens the security stance. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are published, indicating limited formal security governance. While no critical vulnerabilities like malware or phishing indicators were detected, the missing encryption and security best practices represent significant risks. Compliance with GDPR is partial, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism. The company should prioritize securing their website and enhancing privacy compliance to reduce risk and build trust.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire website.
  2. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a cookie policy and consent mechanism to comply with GDPR and enhance user privacy.
  4. Configure DNS security features such as DMARC, DNSSEC, and CAA records.
  5. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  6. Regularly audit and update website software and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  7. Consider integrating analytics with privacy-respecting configurations to gain business insights.

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a mature and extensible content management system, using common frontend libraries such as jQuery and Owl Carousel. The hosting is managed via a1.net DNS servers, indicating a regional hosting provider. Performance is moderate with a page load time of approximately 4 seconds and a page size of ~37 KB, which is acceptable but could be optimized. The site is mobile responsive and has good navigation clarity. However, the lack of HTTPS and security headers represents technical debt and a risk to user trust. No advanced analytics or marketing tools are detected, suggesting a basic digital maturity level. Opportunities exist to modernize security configurations and enhance performance and privacy features.
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.
