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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  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 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

  4. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

Visma Nederland's business model centers on delivering cloud-based business software solutions across multiple sectors, including private enterprises and the public sector. Their competitive advantage lies in their comprehensive product portfolio and strong brand presence within the Dutch market. The company targets a broad customer base from small entrepreneurs to large organizations, supported by a professional website that facilitates customer engagement through clear navigation and contact options. The parent company relationship with Visma Group enhances credibility and market reach. The website's integration with marketing and analytics tools like Google Tag Manager and Cludo Search supports data-driven growth strategies. No suspicious or privacy-protected WHOIS data was found, reinforcing transparency. The company could benefit from publishing more detailed security and incident response information to strengthen trust further.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforcement and a suite of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security. Cookie consent is actively managed, aligning with GDPR requirements. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy page and incident response contact details limits transparency in security governance. Additionally, no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present, which could be considered best practice for enterprise websites. Overall, the security posture is strong but could be enhanced by formalizing and publishing security governance documents and contact channels for security incidents.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information, such as a security@ or abuse@ email address.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet or exceed WCAG standards, improving inclusivity.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Webflow CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries including D3.js for data visualization, Slick Carousel for sliders, and Cludo for search functionality. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and marketing tag management. The site is hosted on Webflow's infrastructure, which provides reliable performance and HTTPS support. The design is responsive and optimized for mobile devices, with good SEO practices evident in meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility is addressed but could be improved further. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, supporting a fast and user-friendly experience. Opportunities exist to enhance security documentation and incident response readiness to align with enterprise best practices.
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.
