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

VOLA is a Danish manufacturing company specializing in taps and accessories characterized by timeless Scandinavian design and exceptional craftsmanship since 1968. The company positions itself as a premium brand with a strong heritage, targeting architects, designers, and discerning consumers worldwide. Their business model emphasizes made-to-order production, customization, and a modular product system, supported by a global dealer and specialist network. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including AngularJS, Google Tag Manager, and Cookiebot for consent management, hosted likely behind Cloudflare, ensuring good performance and mobile optimization. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforcement, CSRF protection, and cookie consent mechanisms, though explicit security policies and incident response contacts are not publicly available. Privacy compliance is well addressed with a comprehensive GDPR-aligned privacy policy and cookie consent banner. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain limits full trust verification, but the website's professional presentation and external social media presence support legitimacy. Overall, the site demonstrates a mature digital presence with room for improvement in transparency of security and contact information.

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. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Unregistered MX Record

      MX record points to unregistered domain: ms64818129.msv1.invalid

      What to do: Remove or fix MX record pointing to unregistered domain

      • RFC 5321 §5.1
      • NIS2 21(2)(i)
      • IR 2024/2690 12.4: Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 12.4: Asset inventory
      • NIST CM-8: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-8: System Component Inventory

  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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • 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

  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

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

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

VOLA holds a strong market position as a premium Danish design manufacturer with a legacy dating back to 1968. Their competitive advantage lies in authentic craftsmanship, design heritage linked to Arne Jacobsen, and a flexible modular product system. Revenue streams likely derive from direct sales through dealers and specialists globally, focusing on high-end architectural and consumer markets. The company targets professionals in building and design sectors as well as end consumers valuing quality and design. Growth indicators include active content marketing, social media engagement, and continuous product innovation. The partnership ecosystem includes dealers worldwide and integration with major advertising and analytics platforms. Strategic observations suggest a focus on sustainability, repairability, and customization as key differentiators in a competitive market.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security maturity level with HTTPS enforced, CSRF protection cookies, and a robust cookie consent mechanism ensuring GDPR compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of a published security policy or incident response contact information represents a compliance gap and potential risk in incident handling readiness. The use of third-party scripts such as Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot is standard but requires ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by publishing explicit security policies, incident response procedures, and a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear security policy and incident response information on the website.
  2. Provide explicit company contact emails and phone numbers for support and security reporting.
  3. Implement and publish a security.txt file to enable responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency around data protection officer contact details and compliance measures.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using AngularJS framework with modern JavaScript and CSS, leveraging Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot for analytics and consent management. Hosting appears to be behind Cloudflare, providing performance and security benefits. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessible navigation. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is fast with asynchronous script loading and optimized images. Technical risks include reliance on third-party scripts and the use of an older AngularJS framework version, which may require modernization to maintain security and performance standards. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust and supports the business goals 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.
