Vertiv · Technology · United States
Low risk. No critical or high findings.
Vertiv is a global leader specializing in critical digital infrastructure solutions for data centers, telecommunications, and commercial/industrial environments. The company offers a broad portfolio including critical power, thermal management, racks and enclosures, monitoring and management, and related services. Vertiv targets enterprise customers and partners worldwide, positioning itself as a trusted provider in the technology and energy sectors. The website reflects a mature, enterprise-grade digital presence with comprehensive content and strong branding consistency. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies such as AngularJS, jQuery, and integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools including Google Analytics, Hotjar, and Oracle Eloqua. The site is well-optimized for SEO, mobile responsiveness, and accessibility, indicating a high level of digital maturity. Structured data is used effectively to enhance search engine understanding and trust. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS, uses secure login forms, and provides clear privacy and security policies. While some security headers are not explicitly visible, the overall posture is strong with mechanisms for incident reporting and vulnerability disclosure. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the website presents a low-risk profile with strong business credibility and technical implementation. The only notable concern is the absence of WHOIS registration data, which may be due to privacy protection or a technical issue but does not detract significantly from the site's legitimacy.

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
No critical or high findings. These medium findings are worth fixing next.
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.
- Medium
Missing Permissions-Policy header
Controls browser features and APIs
What to do: Implement a Permissions-Policy to restrict feature access
- OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Permissions-Policy: accelerometer=(), autoplay=(), camera=(), cross-origin-isolated=(),…
- Medium
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.
- Medium
No MTA-STS Policy
MTA-STS enforces TLS for email delivery
What to do: Implement MTA-STS to prevent downgrade attacks
- RFC 8461
- NIS2 21(2)(e)
- IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(k): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(k): Network security
- NIST SP 800-177r1
- Medium
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.
- Medium
SSL Certificate Expires Within 90 Days
SSL certificate expires in 59 days
What to do: Plan SSL certificate renewal
- Medium
DNS health
DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.
- Medium
DNSSEC Not Enabled
DNSSEC is not configured for this domain
What to do: Enable DNSSEC to prevent DNS spoofing attacks
- CAPEC-142
- RFC 4033
- RFC 4035
- NIS2 21(2)(e)
- IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(l): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(l): Network security

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.

Recommendations
- Implement and publish a comprehensive Content-Security-Policy header to mitigate XSS and related attacks.
- Add security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options to improve protection against clickjacking and MIME sniffing.
- Publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve transparency.
- Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerable versions are in use.
- Enhance visibility of data protection officer contact information to strengthen GDPR compliance and user trust.

Notes
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.
