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

5 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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 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';…
  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 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

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 company operates as a medium-sized entity focused on wholesale distribution for Tiefbau and industrial supplies, leveraging a network of partner houses for regional coverage. Its business model emphasizes partnership, quality product assortment, and digital service integration. The presence of compliance and career pages indicates organizational maturity. The company uses Adobe Launch for analytics and Usercentrics for privacy management, reflecting a commitment to data-driven marketing and regulatory compliance. The external partner domain tfgonlineplus.de suggests an extended digital ecosystem. No direct contact details were found in the main HTML, implying dedicated contact pages. The company appears well-positioned in its niche with a clear value proposition and digital strategy.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and integrates a GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanism, demonstrating good baseline security and privacy practices. The use of Usercentrics and Adobe Launch indicates controlled data collection and user consent management. However, no explicit security headers were detected, and no incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which are areas for improvement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were found in the HTML content. The absence of a security.txt file or explicit incident contact channels limits transparency in security incident handling. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by adding security headers and formal vulnerability disclosure policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen security posture.
  2. Publish a security.txt file or dedicated vulnerability disclosure page with clear contact information for security incidents.
  3. Add explicit incident response contact channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email addresses) to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.
  5. Enhance privacy policy with detailed data retention and processing information to further improve GDPR compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10 CMS, indicating a modern and supported platform. It uses Usercentrics for consent management and Adobe Launch for analytics, showing integration of advanced marketing and privacy tools. Hosting is provided by Adacor, a reputable German hosting provider. The site uses SVG graphics for logos and icons, improving scalability and performance. The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with good SEO meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Performance is moderate, likely due to the use of multiple external scripts. No critical technical debt or outdated technologies were detected. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and incident response mechanisms to reduce technical risks.
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.
