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

7 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

    • 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. 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
  • 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

UFAB operates in the manufacturing sector with a focus on contract manufacturing and system supply for OEM clients. Their business model revolves around providing complex components and turnkey production services, leveraging facilities in Sweden and China. The company targets industrial clients requiring precision and reliability, supported by certifications and a strong client portfolio including Tetra Pak, Siemens, and GE Healthcare. The website content and structure indicate a medium-sized enterprise with a consistent brand presence and a focus on quality and delivery precision. Marketing efforts include multiple analytics and tracking tools, suggesting an active approach to customer engagement and market analysis. The absence of terms of service and explicit security policies suggests areas for maturity improvement. No suspicious or inconsistent domain relationships were found, reinforcing a stable partnership ecosystem.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data in the HTML content. Security headers are partially present, though Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security headers are not confirmed and should be implemented for enhanced protection. The use of multiple third-party scripts introduces potential attack surfaces, necessitating regular audits. No incident response or security policy pages are published, which limits transparency and preparedness communication. The cookie consent mechanism aligns with privacy best practices, but GDPR compliance could be more explicitly documented. Overall, the security score is good, but improvements in policy transparency and header implementation are recommended to strengthen defenses and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a comprehensive Content-Security-Policy header to mitigate cross-site scripting and related attacks.
  2. Publish a security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to reduce potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance GDPR compliance documentation and ensure all privacy practices are clearly communicated.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform using the Divi theme, supported by a variety of JavaScript libraries including jQuery, Slick Carousel, Masonry, and Fluent Forms for enhanced UI and form handling. SEO is managed via Yoast SEO Premium, ensuring proper meta tags and structured data. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of analytics and tracking scripts to optimize page load times. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design elements and accessible navigation. However, accessibility features are basic and could be improved. The technical stack is robust for the business needs but would benefit from enhanced security headers and performance tuning to further improve user experience and security posture.
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.
