It operates globally with multiple regional subsidiaries and is part of the Accenture group, enhancing its market credibility and reach.

The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly, though hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS, implements key security headers, and uses cookie consent banners to comply with GDPR.

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.

Business context

Business profile

Staufen AG holds a strong market position as a specialized consulting firm in operational excellence, leveraging its affiliation with Accenture to expand its global footprint. Its business model focuses on delivering consulting services that improve operational efficiency and lean processes across various industries, particularly manufacturing. The company targets industrial clients seeking performance improvements and digital transformation. The presence of multiple regional domains indicates a strategic approach to localization and market penetration. The firm’s certifications, such as ISO 27001, and its comprehensive service offerings provide competitive advantages. The website content and structure support lead generation and client engagement through insights, academy programs, and contact forms, reflecting a mature and growth-oriented business strategy.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security posture with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers in place, reducing common web vulnerabilities. The use of cookie consent mechanisms aligns with GDPR requirements, demonstrating privacy awareness. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response information, or a vulnerability disclosure program limits transparency and may impact incident handling readiness. The lack of direct security contact emails is a minor gap. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by publishing explicit security governance documents and establishing clear communication channels for security incidents.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security governance and controls.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Provide a direct security contact email (e.g., security@staufen.ag) for incident reporting.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party plugins and scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency on data retention and processing policies to strengthen GDPR compliance.

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform utilizing modern plugins such as Yoast SEO for search engine optimization and WPML for multilingual support, indicating a well-maintained technical infrastructure. The inclusion of jQuery and OneTrust for cookie consent reflects standard web development practices. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO metadata and structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search visibility. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in media delivery and script loading. No critical technical debt or risks were identified, but continuous monitoring of plugin updates and security patches is advised to maintain operational stability.
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.
