No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, indicating an area for improvement in transparency and readiness. Privacy compliance is partial, with a cookie consent banner present but no visible privacy policy or terms of service pages in the analyzed content.

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

3 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
    • 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

Scott Technology operates in the manufacturing and industrial automation sector, providing customized automation and robotic solutions. Their market positioning is that of an established, medium-sized player with a global reach, serving diverse industries such as appliances, automotive, cosmetics, healthcare, mining, and meat processing. The company leverages a B2B business model focused on delivering high-value automation systems. Their website supports investor relations and customer engagement, indicating a mature business with growth ambitions. The presence of multiple brands and product lines suggests a diversified portfolio. The company uses advanced marketing and analytics tools to optimize customer engagement and track performance. No direct contact information is publicly visible, which may indicate a preference for controlled communication channels or a focus on qualified leads through web forms or direct contacts.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses domain registration locks to prevent unauthorized domain changes, which are positive security indicators. However, the absence of DNSSEC leaves the domain vulnerable to DNS spoofing attacks. No security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, or Strict-Transport-Security were detected, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. The site uses multiple third-party tracking scripts, which increases the attack surface but is managed with a cookie consent mechanism. There is no published security policy or incident response contact information, limiting transparency and preparedness for security incidents. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file was found, which is a best practice for responsible vulnerability management. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved with additional controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and user trust.
  3. Add essential security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to harden the website against common attacks.
  4. Develop and publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and LinkedIn Insight Tag for analytics and marketing. It is hosted with Cloudflare DNS services, providing reliable DNS resolution but lacks DNSSEC. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata including Open Graph tags. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization. Accessibility features are basic, suggesting room for improvement to meet WCAG standards. No CMS or specific frameworks were detected from the provided content. The site uses CookiePro for cookie consent management, indicating attention to privacy compliance. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and performance tuning.
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.
