Low risk. 2 critical or high findings in SSL/TLS.

Security score

79/100

Risk levelLow

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

Schwarz Digits is the IT and digital division of the Schwarz Gruppe, offering digital products and services that comply with stringent German data protection standards. The website positions the company as a digital powerhouse within the enterprise technology sector, targeting businesses requiring secure and compliant IT solutions. The technical infrastructure leverages modern JavaScript modules, OneTrust for cookie consent, and Google Tag Manager for analytics, hosted on a cloud object storage platform. The website demonstrates good design quality, mobile optimization, and SEO practices, though explicit contact and privacy policy details are not evident in the provided content. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and cookie consent but lacks visible advanced security headers and incident response information. Overall, the domain appears legitimate and consistent with the business claims, though WHOIS data is minimal. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing privacy and security policies, and providing clear contact channels for security incidents.

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. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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 as an important entity within the technology sector, specifically as part of the Schwarz Gruppe enterprise. It offers IT and digital services including cloud and cybersecurity solutions under various brands such as STACKIT and XM Cyber. The business model focuses on providing compliant digital services to enterprises, leveraging the reputation and resources of its parent group. The website content and branding are consistent and professional, supporting a high trust level. The absence of detailed contact information and privacy policies on the main page suggests areas for improvement in transparency. The use of OneTrust and Google Tag Manager indicates a commitment to compliance and analytics. No suspicious domains or partners were identified from the website content.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and integrates a cookie consent mechanism, reflecting baseline security and privacy compliance. However, no explicit security headers (e.g., CSP, HSTS) were detected in the provided data, and there is no visible security policy or incident response contact information. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file limits transparency for security researchers. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified from the content. The security score is moderate, with recommendations to enhance header configurations, publish security policies, and establish clear incident response contacts to improve security maturity and compliance with GDPR and related regulations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the website footer or main navigation.
  3. Provide clear contact information including a dedicated security or abuse email address for incident reporting.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance transparency and trust by including certifications, compliance statements, and detailed business contact information.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses modern web technologies including ES modules for JavaScript, web fonts, and a modular CSS approach. It integrates OneTrust for cookie consent management and Google Tag Manager for analytics, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. Hosting appears to be on a cloud object storage platform, which supports scalability. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO is supported by appropriate meta tags and Open Graph data. However, no CMS or specific frameworks were identified. Technical risks include the lack of visible security headers and limited accessibility features, which could impact security and user experience. Opportunities exist to modernize security practices and improve transparency through policy publication.
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.
