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

STRG is a well-established Austrian technology and research company specializing in custom software solutions, AI research, and digital transformation services. With over 20 years of experience, STRG offers a modular approach to software development, integrating AI and sustainability principles to optimize business processes across various industries including manufacturing, healthcare, finance, and media. The company maintains a strong market position supported by client testimonials, case studies, and industry partnerships. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with Elementor and employs modern web technologies and performance optimizations. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS configuration is a critical security gap that undermines user trust and data protection. Privacy compliance is well addressed with GDPR-compliant policies and cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, STRG demonstrates a mature digital presence but must urgently address its SSL/TLS security to enhance its security posture and trustworthiness.

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

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

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.

Breach exposure

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention strg.at, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for strg.at right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

STRG operates a modular business model offering tailored software and AI-driven solutions to a diverse client base across multiple sectors. Its competitive advantage lies in its long-standing research background, integration of AI technologies, and commitment to sustainability. Revenue streams likely include consulting, software development, and AI research projects. The company targets medium to large enterprises seeking digital transformation and AI integration. STRG's partnership ecosystem includes technology providers like Master Addons and collaborations with universities and research institutions. The company’s strong media presence and published papers indicate thought leadership and market influence.

Security posture

The website's security maturity is currently low due to the lack of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS enforcement, exposing users to potential data interception risks. While no critical vulnerabilities such as Heartbleed or POODLE were detected, the absence of DNSSEC, CAA records, HSTS, and OCSP stapling indicates room for improvement in DNS and transport security. Forms are protected with Google reCAPTCHA, reducing spam risk. Privacy policies and cookie consent are implemented, supporting GDPR compliance. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, which could be enhanced to improve transparency and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Immediately install and configure a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Implement HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload to enforce secure connections.
  3. Configure DNSSEC and CAA records to strengthen DNS security and certificate issuance control.
  4. Enable OCSP stapling to improve certificate revocation checking performance and security.
  5. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to enhance trust and compliance.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using Elementor page builder and several plugins including Enhanced Tooltip Glossary, Ultimate Post Kit, and Autoptimize for performance. It uses modern JavaScript libraries such as Swiper.js and Lottie for animations. Hosting is on Google Cloud infrastructure. Performance is moderate with lazy loading and caching mechanisms in place. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The site is mobile optimized and features multiple interactive elements including forms with reCAPTCHA. Technical debt is low but the missing SSL certificate is a significant risk factor.
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.
