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

UNTHA shredding technology GmbH is a well-established manufacturer specializing in industrial shredding machines for various waste and recycling applications. With over 50 years of experience and a global presence including subsidiaries in the US, the company offers tailored shredding solutions for materials such as residual wood, metal, plastics, electronic waste, and more. The website reflects a professional and comprehensive digital presence with detailed product information and customer testimonials. Technically, the site uses modern frameworks like Next.js and React, hosted on AWS CloudFront, and integrates privacy and analytics tools such as Cookiebot, Google Tag Manager, and Matomo. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS implementation is a critical security gap that significantly impacts the site's security posture. Security headers are properly configured, but the lack of TLS protocols and certificate transparency compliance are notable vulnerabilities. Overall, the site is trustworthy and business credible but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and enhance trust.

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

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

    • 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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

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

UNTHA holds a strong market position as a reliable brand in the manufacturing and recycling sectors, targeting industrial and commercial clients needing shredding solutions. Their business model focuses on manufacturing, sales, and comprehensive service offerings including maintenance and spare parts. The company demonstrates growth through extensive global subsidiaries and partnerships, with a clear emphasis on sustainability and tailored customer solutions. The website's content and structure support their market positioning, showcasing a broad product portfolio and active engagement with customers via testimonials and news updates. Their partnership ecosystem includes a US subsidiary and strategic partners, enhancing their global reach.

Security posture

The current security maturity of the website is moderate to low due to the lack of a valid SSL certificate and absence of HTTPS, which is a critical issue. While security headers such as HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and Content-Security-Policy are implemented, the missing TLS protocols and OCSP stapling reduce the overall security effectiveness. No evidence of incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies was found, indicating potential gaps in security governance. The site uses secure forms and consent mechanisms for privacy compliance, but the critical absence of HTTPS undermines user data protection and trust. Immediate remediation is recommended to implement proper SSL/TLS certificates and enable secure protocols.

Recommendations

  1. Renew and properly configure a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or 1.3) and disable insecure protocols.
  3. Implement OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve security and performance.
  4. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact information.
  5. Maintain and regularly update security headers and conduct security audits to identify and mitigate risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including React and Next.js, indicating a high level of digital maturity. It is hosted on AWS CloudFront, providing global content delivery. The site integrates privacy and analytics tools such as Cookiebot for consent management, Google Tag Manager, and Matomo for analytics. The design is responsive and optimized for mobile devices. However, performance metrics were not available, and the lack of HTTPS is a significant technical risk. The site uses Contentful as a CMS, inferred from asset URLs. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust but requires security enhancements to meet best practices.
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.
