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. 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
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  2. 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

    • 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

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

VCxray operates in the manufacturing and industrial inspection sector, targeting B2B clients requiring high-quality non-destructive testing solutions. Their competitive advantage lies in customized turnkey X-ray systems, extensive industry experience, and a global service network. Revenue streams likely include product sales, inspection services, technical support, and spare parts. The company maintains strategic partnerships and subsidiaries, notably the acquisition of diondo, expanding their CT system offerings. The website reflects a mature digital presence with clear navigation, multilingual support, and comprehensive contact options, supporting lead generation and customer engagement. Growth indicators include active news updates, event participation, and a broad application and market coverage. The partnership ecosystem includes inspection service providers and technology collaborators, enhancing market reach and innovation capacity.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced using TLS 1.3 and 1.2, absence of known SSL vulnerabilities, and a valid SPF record for email. However, the lack of DMARC and DNSSEC exposes the domain to potential email spoofing and DNS attacks. The absence of HSTS reduces protection against protocol downgrade attacks. Cookie consent is managed effectively via Cookiebot, supporting GDPR compliance. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are publicly found, which could be improved to enhance security transparency. Overall, the security measures are adequate for business operations but could be strengthened to mitigate advanced threats and improve trustworthiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a strict DMARC policy to prevent email spoofing and phishing attacks.
  2. Enable HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload directives to enforce HTTPS.
  3. Deploy DNSSEC to protect DNS queries from spoofing and cache poisoning.
  4. Enable OCSP stapling on the web server to improve SSL certificate revocation checking performance.
  5. Achieve certificate transparency compliance to enhance SSL certificate trust and detect mis-issuance.
  6. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve security communication and incident handling.
  7. Consider adding a dedicated security or incident response contact channel (e.g., security@ or abuse@).

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, leveraging Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for client-side scripting. It integrates Cookiebot for GDPR-compliant cookie consent management and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing tags. Hosting appears to be managed via private nameservers with an IPv4 address in Germany. Performance is moderate with a page load time of approximately 7 seconds and 107 resources loaded, indicating potential optimization opportunities. Accessibility and SEO are well addressed with proper meta tags, language attributes, and structured navigation. Security headers are partially implemented; however, improvements in HSTS and email authentication are needed. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from performance tuning and enhanced security configurations to reduce risks and improve user experience.
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.
