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. 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

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  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 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.

Technical appendix

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

Business context

Business profile

The firm positions itself as a leading economic law advisor with a comprehensive service portfolio targeting corporate clients. Its business model revolves around providing high-level legal consultancy and representation. The website content and structure emphasize expertise, professionalism, and client engagement. The firm maintains multiple office locations in Germany and Belgium, indicating a medium-sized operation with international reach. The presence of awards and active social media channels supports its market positioning and brand trust. No direct revenue streams or partnerships were identified from the website data, but the firm likely relies on client engagements and legal mandates.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with good SSL configuration and includes privacy and cookie policies aligned with GDPR requirements. Security headers are partially implemented, and no critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The use of Matomo analytics indicates a preference for privacy-conscious tracking. However, the absence of a security.txt file and explicit incident response or security policy pages suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is mature but could benefit from enhanced header policies and published security governance documents.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a comprehensive Content-Security-Policy header to mitigate XSS and related attacks.
  2. Publish a security policy and incident response plan on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities and update accordingly.
  5. Enhance HTTP security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options if not already set.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on modern JavaScript frameworks Nuxt.js and Vue.js, ensuring a responsive and dynamic user experience. SEOmatic CMS is used for content management and SEO optimization. The site loads multiple optimized images and uses lazy loading techniques. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in loading speed. Mobile optimization is excellent, with responsive design and accessible navigation. The hosting provider appears to be INWX based on nameservers. Analytics are handled via Matomo, favoring privacy. No legacy or vulnerable libraries were detected in the scripts. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and well-maintained, supporting the firm's professional image.
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.
