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. 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

    • 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

  3. 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 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.

Technical appendix

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

Business context

Business profile

TANATEX Chemicals operates in the manufacturing sector, specializing in textile chemicals with a global reach. Their competitive advantage lies in their long-standing history, focus on sustainability, and innovative product concepts such as bio-based chemicals and advanced textile finishes. The business model is B2B, serving textile brands, mills, and dyehouses. Revenue streams likely include product sales, lab services, and toll manufacturing. The company is part of the Transfar Chemicals group, indicating a broader partnership ecosystem. Growth indicators include active content updates, certifications, and digital presence on LinkedIn and YouTube. The website supports their market positioning with detailed product and concept information, reinforcing their expertise and innovation leadership.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and CSRF tokens implemented for form security. Cookie consent is managed via Cookiebot, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents an area for improvement. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, which could hinder transparency and readiness perception. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found during analysis. Overall, the security maturity is good but can be enhanced by publishing security policies and implementing additional HTTP security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and incident response procedures to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerable libraries are included.
  5. Enhance monitoring and logging capabilities to detect and respond to security incidents promptly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a Laravel backend with a modern JavaScript frontend using Alpine.js. It integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics and Cookiebot for cookie consent management. The site uses SVG graphics and HTML5 video elements for rich media content. The CMS Vormkracht10 is used, indicating a custom or specialized content management system. Performance is moderate with preloading of key assets and responsive design ensuring excellent mobile optimization. Accessibility features are present but could be further enhanced. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Technical risks are low but include missing security headers and potential dependency vulnerabilities if not regularly updated.
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.
