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

Van Genechten Packaging is a well-established packaging company specializing in innovative and sustainable folding carton packaging solutions for diverse markets such as food, pet care, beverages, and more. The company positions itself as a creative and business-impact-driven partner for brands seeking to differentiate their products. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with good content quality and clear navigation. Technically, the website is built on Drupal 10, hosted with Azure DNS, and employs modern web technologies including Google Tag Manager for analytics and cookie consent management. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices and structured data implementation. From a security perspective, the website enforces HTTPS with a strong SSL configuration and domain transfer protection. Cookie consent mechanisms are in place, supporting GDPR compliance. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and no explicit security policy or incident response contacts are published. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the website demonstrates a mature digital presence with solid security and privacy practices, supporting the credibility of the business. Strategic improvements could include enabling DNSSEC, publishing a security.txt file, and providing explicit security contact information to enhance trust and incident response readiness.

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

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  3. 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

Van Genechten Packaging operates in the manufacturing sector, focusing on packaging solutions that combine sustainability and innovation. Their business model is B2B, targeting brands that require high-quality packaging to enhance product appeal and logistics efficiency. The company has a long history dating back to 1997, indicating market stability and experience. Their digital presence supports multiple languages and markets, with clear segmentation of services and markets. The use of structured data and detailed policy documents reflects a commitment to transparency and compliance. The LinkedIn presence suggests active professional engagement. No direct revenue or partnership domains were identified beyond the main site and LinkedIn. The company emphasizes sustainability and business impact, which aligns with current market trends and customer expectations. Their content and navigation facilitate user engagement and lead generation through contact forms.

Security posture

The website exhibits a strong security posture with mandatory HTTPS and domain transfer protection. Cookie consent is implemented with granular categories, supporting GDPR compliance. The absence of DNSSEC is a minor security gap that could be addressed to improve DNS integrity. No security.txt or incident response contact information is provided, which is a common best practice for vulnerability disclosure and incident management. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were found. Embedded third-party content (YouTube) is blocked until cookie consent is granted, demonstrating privacy-conscious design. Security headers beyond domain status and HTTPS are not explicitly visible in the provided data, suggesting room for enhancement (e.g., Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options). Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved with additional DNS security and explicit security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a security.txt file at the root of the domain to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response contacts.
  3. Add explicit security policy or contact information for incident response to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Implement additional HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy and X-Frame-Options to harden the website against common attacks.
  5. Continue monitoring third-party scripts and embedded content to ensure privacy compliance and security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by Drupal 10 CMS, indicating a modern and supported content management system. It uses Google Tag Manager for analytics and cookie consent management, and Font Awesome for iconography. Hosting is managed via Azure DNS, with multiple Azure DNS name servers configured. The site is mobile-optimized and includes accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA roles. Performance is moderate, with preloading of fonts and lazy loading of images. Structured data in JSON-LD format is implemented for SEO and rich snippets. The site uses cookie consent blocking for embedded YouTube videos, enhancing privacy compliance. No broken links or errors were detected in the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid with opportunities for DNS security improvements.
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.
