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

Virtual Identity AG is a well-established digital agency founded in 1999, specializing in AI integration, UX design, software engineering, and digital marketing services. The company targets businesses aiming for digital transformation and human-centered business growth. Their market position is strong, supported by a reputable client portfolio and consistent branding. Technically, the website is built on WordPress, hosted on AWS CloudFront, and uses modern JavaScript libraries and SEO tools, though performance is moderate. Security posture is currently weak due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of modern TLS protocols, which poses risks to data confidentiality and user trust. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but requires urgent security improvements to meet modern standards.

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

5 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

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

  2. 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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';…

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

The company operates in the technology sector, focusing on AI-driven digital solutions and business growth strategies. Their business model includes consulting, software development, and digital marketing services. They maintain strong partnerships and a diverse client base across industries such as finance, healthcare, mobility, and consumer goods. The website content and client logos indicate a medium-sized enterprise with a solid market presence in Germany and Europe. Their strategic focus on AI and human-centered design positions them competitively in the digital agency landscape.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is low due to missing HTTPS and TLS support, which are critical for secure communications. While security headers like X-Frame-Options and X-XSS-Protection are present, the lack of a valid SSL certificate and no DNSSEC or CAA records reduce overall security. No explicit incident response or security policies are published, indicating potential gaps in security governance. The company should prioritize SSL certificate installation, enable modern TLS protocols, and implement DNS security extensions to improve their security posture and compliance with GDPR and other regulations.

Recommendations

  1. Install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the site.
  2. Enable TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3 protocols and disable outdated protocols to enhance encryption.
  3. Implement DNSSEC and CAA records to protect DNS integrity and certificate issuance.
  4. Publish clear security and incident response policies to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Maintain and regularly update security headers and conduct vulnerability assessments.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern WordPress CMS with popular plugins such as Yoast SEO and WP Rocket for SEO and performance optimization. It leverages AWS CloudFront CDN for content delivery and includes JavaScript libraries like jQuery and Swiper.js for UI components. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features. However, the absence of HTTPS and modern TLS protocols is a significant technical risk. Performance metrics are not provided but inferred as moderate. The technical stack is solid but requires security upgrades and continuous monitoring to reduce technical debt and risks.
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.
