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

SIAT S.p.A is a medium-sized Italian manufacturing company specializing in secondary packaging machinery. The company offers a broad range of products including taping machines, case erectors, wrapping machines, strapping tools, and flexographic printing machines, supported by after-sales service and spare parts. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand presence targeting industrial clients requiring reliable packaging solutions. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with a modern front-end stack including Bootstrap and jQuery, and integrates Google Analytics and Iubenda for privacy compliance. Security posture is adequate with valid SSL and several security headers, but the absence of modern TLS protocols and OCSP stapling indicates room for improvement.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  2. 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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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 · found on this site
  • 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 positions itself as an experienced player in the packaging machinery sector with over 40 years of expertise. Its business model focuses on manufacturing and selling industrial packaging equipment and providing related services. The presence of an e-commerce subdomain and partnerships with consumables suppliers like Maillis indicates a diversified revenue stream and a comprehensive ecosystem. The website targets industrial and manufacturing sectors, emphasizing reliability and innovation. The company maintains active social media channels on LinkedIn and YouTube, supporting marketing and customer engagement efforts. The domain registration and DNS records are consistent with the business claims, reinforcing legitimacy.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and several security headers such as HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options, which are positive security indicators. However, the disabling of all TLS protocols is a significant anomaly that could impact secure connections and compatibility. The lack of OCSP stapling and session resumption reduces SSL performance and security. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are found, which is a gap in transparency and preparedness. The site uses standard WordPress plugins and libraries without detected vulnerable versions. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires updates to TLS configuration and enhanced transparency on security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 protocols on the web server to ensure secure and compatible HTTPS connections.
  2. Implement OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve SSL performance and security.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and trust.
  4. Upgrade PHP version to a supported release beyond 7.4 to maintain security and performance.
  5. Continue maintaining and updating privacy and cookie consent mechanisms to ensure ongoing GDPR compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on an Apache server with PHP 7.4 and runs WordPress 6.8.1 CMS. It uses Bootstrap 3.4.1 for responsive design and jQuery 3.7.1 for client-side scripting. Additional libraries include Modal Video, LightGallery, and Owl Carousel for UI components. Google Tag Manager and Analytics are integrated for tracking, alongside Iubenda scripts for cookie consent management. DNS records indicate hosting with Register.it and email services via Outlook protection. The SSL certificate is valid but the TLS configuration disables all TLS versions, which is unusual and should be corrected. Performance metrics are not available, but the site appears well-structured with good SEO metadata and schema.org JSON-LD structured data. Accessibility and mobile optimization are basic to good. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but requires updates to security protocols and PHP version.
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.
