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

uvex safety is a well-established manufacturer and provider of personal protective equipment (PPE) and occupational safety products, primarily targeting business customers and safety professionals. The company offers a broad portfolio including safety helmets, protective eyewear, hearing protection, respiratory masks, gloves, footwear, and workwear. The website reflects a mature digital presence with comprehensive product information, dealer locator tools, and digital PSA solutions, positioning uvex safety as a key player in the manufacturing sector focused on workplace safety in Germany and beyond. Technically, the website is built on TYPO3 CMS with modern JavaScript frameworks and leverages Amazon Cloudfront CDN for fast content delivery. It employs Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking, and implements cookie consent management compliant with GDPR. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly, reflecting a high level of digital maturity. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and includes standard security headers. Cookie consent and privacy policies are comprehensive and transparent. However, the absence of publicly available WHOIS data for the domain www.uvex-safety.com introduces some uncertainty regarding domain registration transparency. No security policy or incident response information is explicitly published, and no vulnerability disclosure mechanism is evident. Overall, the website presents a professional, trustworthy, and secure digital front for uvex safety’s business operations. The main risk lies in the lack of WHOIS transparency, which should be addressed to enhance trust. Strategic recommendations include publishing explicit security policies, establishing a vulnerability disclosure program, and providing direct security contact channels.

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

2 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  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

uvex safety operates in the manufacturing sector specializing in PPE and occupational safety products. The company targets industrial sectors such as automotive, construction, healthcare, metalworking, and fire & rescue. Its business model focuses on B2B sales supported by extensive product consulting and dealer networks. The presence of digital PSA and online shops for both business and private customers indicates diversified revenue streams. The company maintains a strong brand with consistent messaging and trust signals such as CE certifications. Partnerships with online shops and app-based fit advisors demonstrate a modern approach to customer engagement and service delivery. The company’s market position is solid within Germany and likely extends internationally through its group structure.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and a robust SSL configuration. Standard security headers are present, enhancing protection against common web vulnerabilities. The site uses cookie consent management aligned with GDPR requirements, indicating compliance awareness. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response procedures, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms limits transparency and readiness perception. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a notable concern, as it reduces domain registration trustworthiness. Overall, the security posture is strong but could be improved by adding explicit security governance information and contact channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security governance and practices.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Provide direct security contact emails (e.g., security@ or abuse@) for incident reporting.
  4. Ensure WHOIS data is publicly available and consistent with company information to improve trust.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

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.
