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

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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 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. 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 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';…

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

VELUX Danmark operates primarily in the manufacturing and retail sectors, targeting homeowners, professionals like architects and builders, and commercial clients. Their business model integrates product sales with design consultation and installation support, supported by digital tools such as an online configurator and e-commerce platforms. The company maintains a strong partnership ecosystem and brand presence, including sponsorships like the Tour de France. Growth indicators include comprehensive resource offerings for professionals and sustainability reporting. The website's content and structure support a clear customer journey and emphasize quality and innovation in daylight solutions.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and multiple security headers implemented, reducing common web vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a public vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file suggests an opportunity to enhance transparency and incident response readiness. Privacy policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, indicating good data protection practices. Overall, the security maturity is high but could benefit from formalized disclosure and incident response documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a publicly accessible vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and encourage responsible reporting.
  2. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  3. Publish incident response procedures or contact channels dedicated to security issues.
  4. Enhance visibility of data protection officer contact information to strengthen GDPR compliance.
  5. Continue to monitor and optimize website performance and accessibility to maintain high user experience standards.

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack including Vue.js for frontend interactivity and Sitecore CMS for content management. It uses Algolia for search functionality and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing tags. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and demonstrates fast loading times. SEO best practices are followed with proper meta tags, Open Graph data, and structured JSON-LD schema. The technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable digital presence, though hosting provider details were not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical implementation supports the business goals effectively with minimal technical debt observed.
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.
