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

5 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.

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

The company maintains a strong market position supported by a diversified brand portfolio including uvex safety, uvex sports, and other subsidiaries. Their online presence includes an e-commerce platform and extensive corporate information, targeting industrial safety professionals and sports consumers. The group demonstrates growth through multiple subsidiaries and partnerships, leveraging digital channels and social media for marketing and customer engagement. The business model is focused on manufacturing excellence and direct customer interaction via online shops and brand websites.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with excellent SSL configuration and integrates a cookie consent mechanism via Usercentrics, indicating good privacy compliance. However, explicit security headers are not detected, and no dedicated security policy or incident response contacts are published. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file suggests room for improvement in transparency and incident readiness. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from enhanced security communication and header implementation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security frameworks and practices.
  2. Add standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact information, including dedicated security or abuse email addresses.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or publish a security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Continue to monitor and update privacy compliance mechanisms to maintain GDPR adherence and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS with modern frontend technologies including StencilJS and uses Amazon Cloudfront CDN for hosting and performance optimization. It integrates Usercentrics for privacy management and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile optimized with good SEO practices and fast loading times. Accessibility features are basic but present. The technical infrastructure is modern and well-maintained, supporting a professional digital presence with opportunities to enhance security headers and accessibility.
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.
