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 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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

  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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Veolia Deutschland operates as a subsidiary of the global Veolia Group, with multiple specialized subsidiaries and brands linked from the site. The business model focuses on providing integrated environmental solutions across energy, water, and waste sectors, targeting public and private sectors. The company maintains certifications such as ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001, reinforcing its quality and environmental management standards. The website's extensive regional and specialty brand links indicate a broad partnership ecosystem and diversified service offerings. Marketing and analytics tools are used moderately with transparent consent mechanisms. The company’s digital strategy supports its leadership in the German market with clear communication of services and sustainability commitments.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and implements multiple security headers, indicating a robust security baseline. Consent management is handled via Didomi, ensuring GDPR compliance for cookie usage and tracking. No sensitive data leaks or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a publicly available security policy and incident response contact reduces transparency in security governance. There is no evidence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file. Recommendations include publishing explicit security policies and incident response contacts to enhance trust and preparedness. Overall, the security posture is strong but could benefit from improved transparency and formalized disclosure mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and tracking tools for security risks.
  5. Enhance security headers with Subresource Integrity (SRI) for external scripts where feasible.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal CMS, leveraging modern JavaScript and CSS frameworks with integration of Google Tag Manager and Didomi for analytics and consent management. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is well addressed with comprehensive meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. The site uses privacy-enhanced YouTube embeds and preconnect/dns-prefetch optimizations. Hosting provider details are not explicit but the domain uses multiple authoritative name servers. Technical risks are minimal, though continuous monitoring of third-party scripts is advised to mitigate supply chain risks. The site architecture supports scalability and user experience effectively.
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.
