Partial score · DNS & email only

75/100

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

Scanned

5 of 7 checks could not complete. The site may be unreachable or blocking automated scans, so the results below cover only what could be checked. Try a rescan later.

NIS2 and GDPR posture

NIS2 outside view

GDPR outside view
Not assessed

Both readouts depend on the site's pages, which could not be loaded in this scan.

Priority findings

No critical or high findings in the checks that completed. These medium findings are worth fixing next.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Medium

      No MTA-STS Policy

      MTA-STS enforces TLS for email delivery

      What to do: Implement MTA-STS to prevent downgrade attacks

  2. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • Medium

      DNSSEC Not Enabled

      DNSSEC is not configured for this domain

      What to do: Enable DNSSEC to prevent DNS spoofing attacks

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

  • SSL/TLS: did not complete in this scan.
  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • Network security: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

SKOV operates in the manufacturing sector focused on agricultural climate control and farm management solutions. Their competitive advantage lies in their long history since 1966, Danish manufacturing quality, and comprehensive service offerings including training and 24/7 support. The business model is B2B, serving livestock producers worldwide with tailored solutions for poultry, pigs, insects, and dairy. The company leverages data-driven technologies to optimize production and animal welfare. Growth indicators include digital value chain services and global reach. The partnership ecosystem includes distributors and service personnel but no explicit partner domains were identified. The website content and structure support a professional and trustworthy market presence.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a good SSL configuration and uses reCAPTCHA to protect forms from abuse. Cookie consent is managed via Cookiebot, indicating GDPR awareness. However, the site lacks several recommended security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options. No security policy or incident response contact information is published, which limits transparency and preparedness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a notable risk factor for domain legitimacy. Overall, the security maturity is moderate to good but could be improved with enhanced headers and published policies.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  2. Implement additional security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Verify and update domain WHOIS registration information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Maintain and enhance privacy compliance by regularly reviewing cookie consent and data protection practices.

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.
