High risk. 9 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view, SSL/TLS and 2 other checks.

Security score

28/100

Risk levelHigh

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

Thöni Industriebetriebe GmbH is a well-established family-owned industrial group based in Austria, specializing in aluminum manufacturing, automotive components, environmental energy technology, machinery and plant construction, and hose production. The company operates internationally with multiple production sites across Austria, Germany, Italy, and the USA. The website reflects a professional and comprehensive digital presence, targeting industrial clients and partners in related sectors. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern frontend frameworks and plugins, but suffers from a critical lack of HTTPS support due to an invalid or missing SSL certificate, which significantly impacts its security posture. Privacy compliance is well addressed with GDPR-aligned policies and cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the business credibility and content quality are high, but the security deficiencies pose a risk to user trust and data protection.

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

9 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

      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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  4. 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 · found on this site
  • 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

Thöni holds a strong market position as a diversified industrial manufacturer with a focus on innovation, quality, and sustainability. Its business model centers on providing end-to-end solutions from product development to delivery in multiple sectors including energy and automotive. The company leverages a global footprint and maintains active engagement through social media and a dedicated job portal. Growth indicators include international trade show participation and expansion of energy technology projects. The partnership ecosystem includes subsidiaries and specialized platforms such as whistleblowing services. Strategic observations highlight the importance of digital modernization and enhanced security to maintain competitive advantage.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is low due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of HTTPS support, exposing users to potential interception and data integrity risks. While no known vulnerabilities like Heartbleed or POODLE are detected, the missing encryption and security headers reduce the overall security posture. Compliance with GDPR is evident in privacy and cookie policies, but incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not publicly documented. The lack of secure session management and modern TLS protocols further weakens security. Business impact includes potential loss of customer trust and regulatory risks. Security culture indicators are not explicitly visible on the site.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate immediately to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Implement HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload directives.
  3. Add and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Establish and publish an incident response policy and contact channels for security issues.
  5. Introduce a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  6. Regularly audit and update all third-party libraries and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  7. Enhance website performance monitoring and optimize resource loading for faster user experience.
  8. Maintain consistent branding and update content to reflect ongoing business developments.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by WordPress 6.2.6 running on an Apache server with a variety of frontend technologies including Bootstrap, jQuery, Slick Carousel, Owl Carousel, and Plyr video player. The site uses several plugins such as 3D Flipbook and Download Monitor. DNS is managed by Telekom Austria with MX records pointing to Microsoft Outlook protection. The site lacks DNSSEC and CAA records. Performance metrics are missing but the page size and resource count suggest moderate complexity. Mobile optimization and accessibility are good, with responsive design and ARIA landmarks. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. However, the absence of HTTPS and modern TLS protocols is a significant technical risk. Hosting appears to be on a VPS or dedicated server with IP 159.69.224.2. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern but requires urgent security upgrades.
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.
