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

Hans Turck GmbH & Co. KG is a well-established German industrial automation company with over 50 years of experience, specializing in smart sensor technology, decentralized automation, and digitalization solutions for production and logistics. The company positions itself as a global automation partner with a strong presence across multiple continents and a comprehensive portfolio including factory, process, and logistics automation. Their offerings extend from robust hardware solutions to cloud-based software services, supporting Industry 4.0 and IIoT initiatives. Technically, the website employs modern JavaScript libraries and Google Tag Manager for analytics, with good mobile optimization and professional design. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and no visible vulnerabilities, though security headers could be improved. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear policies and consent mechanisms. However, WHOIS data is unavailable, which slightly impacts domain trust analysis but does not detract from the overall legitimacy indicated by the website content and branding.

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. 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

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  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"

    • 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. 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

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

Turck operates in the manufacturing and technology sectors, targeting industrial clients requiring automation and digitalization solutions. Their business model is B2B with a global footprint supported by subsidiaries and strategic partnerships, notably with Banner Engineering. The company emphasizes innovation in Industry 4.0 and IIoT, offering modular and decentralized automation technologies. Their growth is supported by a broad product range, digital services, and a global production network aimed at reducing delivery times and carbon footprint. The company culture highlights employee responsibility, sustainability, and corporate ethics, reinforcing their market credibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS and no exposed sensitive data. Use of Google Tag Manager indicates controlled analytics deployment. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS is a gap. No public incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is found, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, reflecting good data protection practices. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from enhanced header configurations and published security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and vulnerability disclosure program to improve transparency and incident handling.
  3. Provide clear contact information for security incidents, such as a dedicated security@ or abuse@ email address.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and analytics tools to ensure no vulnerabilities or privacy issues.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including jQuery, Flowplayer for video, and Select2 for enhanced UI elements. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and marketing tags. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO meta tags. Performance is moderate with some heavy multimedia content but generally well managed. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not available. The site could improve accessibility and security header implementation 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.
