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

THIMM is a well-established German family-owned company founded in 1949, specializing in sustainable packaging and display solutions made from corrugated cardboard. The company positions itself as a leading provider in this niche, targeting businesses that require environmentally friendly packaging options. Their website reflects a mature digital presence with multi-language support and comprehensive content about their products and services. Technically, the site is built on TYPO3 CMS, integrates modern tools like Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot for analytics and privacy compliance, and demonstrates good performance and accessibility standards. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and provides a detailed cookie consent mechanism, though it lacks explicit security policies or incident response contacts. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain legitimacy verification, but the professional website and business information suggest a credible entity. Overall, the site scores well on content quality, technical implementation, and privacy compliance, with room for improvement in security transparency and WHOIS data availability.

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

6 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 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"

    • 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. 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.

Breach exposure

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention thimm.com, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for thimm.com 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

THIMM operates in the manufacturing sector, focusing on sustainable packaging and display solutions, a growing market driven by environmental concerns. Their business model centers on manufacturing and direct supply to consumer goods companies. The company leverages digital tools for marketing and customer engagement, including analytics and consent management. Their multi-language website indicates an international or European market reach. The lack of visible certifications or security policies suggests potential areas for strengthening trust and compliance. The company maintains clear contact channels and a professional online presence, supporting business credibility and customer trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with HTTPS enforced and a robust cookie consent framework that aligns with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of security headers and a public security policy or incident response contact reduces transparency and may impact trust from security-conscious users. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The site would benefit from implementing standard security headers and publishing a security.txt file or similar disclosure to enhance its security maturity and incident readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and user trust.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve security communication.
  4. Verify and publish accurate WHOIS information or use a registrar that provides transparent domain registration data to enhance legitimacy.
  5. Continue to maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to stay compliant with evolving regulations and user expectations.

Notes

The website uses TYPO3 CMS, a robust and scalable content management system suitable for enterprise-level websites. Integration with Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot indicates a mature approach to analytics and privacy compliance. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices including meta tags and structured data. Performance appears moderate, with potential for optimization in loading speed. The use of modern JavaScript libraries and CSS frameworks supports a responsive and user-friendly experience. No hosting provider details were found, and no obvious technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected.
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.
