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

UnionStal Sp. z o.o. is a Polish industrial company specializing in the supply and sale of wear-resistant steel plates and related products, including CREUSABRO steel. Established in 2003, the company serves industrial sectors such as mining, heavy industry, recycling, and cement production. Their business model focuses on B2B sales, supported by a network of European partners and direct sourcing from manufacturers. The website reflects a professional presence with good content quality and consistent branding, targeting industrial clients primarily in Poland and Europe. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies including Bootstrap, jQuery, and Google services for analytics and security, with moderate performance and good mobile optimization. Security posture is adequate with use of reCAPTCHA and cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks visible HTTP security headers and a dedicated privacy policy page, which are areas for improvement. The domain registration data is consistent with the company's history, supporting legitimacy. Overall, the site is functional, trustworthy, and compliant with basic GDPR cookie requirements, though privacy policy and security enhancements are recommended.

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

8 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

  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"

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

UnionStal operates in the manufacturing sector, focusing on specialized steel products for industrial applications. Their market position is supported by a long operational history since 2003 and a broad European partner ecosystem including UnionOcel, UnionOtel, and Protectparts. The company leverages direct sourcing and a comprehensive product catalog to serve heavy industry clients. Their business model is B2B distribution with value-added services such as mechanical processing and technical consultations. The website content and linked domains indicate a stable partnership network and a focus on industrial customers. Growth potential lies in expanding direct deliveries and maintaining certifications and approvals from classification societies. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers on the site suggests a controlled communication channel via forms, possibly to manage inquiries efficiently.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. It employs Google reCAPTCHA on contact forms to mitigate spam and bot submissions and implements a GDPR-compliant cookie consent banner. However, no explicit privacy policy page was found, which is a compliance gap under GDPR. The absence of visible HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, or X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No incident response or security contact information is provided, limiting transparency in case of security events. The domain uses HTTPS (implied by URLs and Google services), but SSL configuration details are not available. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Recommendations include adding security headers, publishing a privacy policy, and defining incident response contacts to improve compliance and security readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear and comprehensive privacy policy page to meet GDPR requirements.
  2. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Enable DNSSEC for the domain to enhance DNS security.
  4. Provide explicit security and incident response contact information on the website.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure privacy compliance and minimize user tracking.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end technology stack including Bootstrap for responsive design, jQuery for DOM manipulation, Owl Carousel for sliders, and Font Awesome for icons. Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are used for analytics, alongside Seznam Retargeting for marketing. The site includes Google reCAPTCHA v2 for form security. Performance is moderate with video backgrounds and multiple scripts, but mobile optimization is good. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or static site. Hosting is likely via home.pl S.A., the domain registrar. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility is basic with some ARIA roles and form validation. Technical risks include lack of security headers and no visible SSL configuration details. Opportunities exist to improve performance by optimizing video usage and enhancing accessibility features.
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.
