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

Triple A Aqua Service GmbH operates the website watercooler.at, offering water dispensers and related services primarily in Austria. The company positions itself as a market leader with over 25 years of experience, providing both leased water dispensers and Alpenwasser bottled water delivery. The website is professionally designed using WordPress with the Divi theme and includes comprehensive content, customer testimonials, and social media integration. However, the technical infrastructure shows weaknesses in SSL/TLS configuration, lacking a valid certificate and modern protocols, which poses security risks. Privacy and cookie policies are present and GDPR compliant, with active consent mechanisms. Contact information is clearly provided, enhancing business credibility.

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

9 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

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  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 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
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

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 targets both residential and corporate customers in Austria, offering subscription-based water dispenser services and bottled water delivery. Their business model focuses on leasing and service contracts rather than outright sales, emphasizing convenience and quality. The website reflects a mature digital presence with SEO optimization and marketing tools like Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and HubSpot. Positive customer reviews and social proof support a strong market position. The parent company is Culligan Austria GmbH, indicating a reputable backing. The company maintains consistent branding and a clear value proposition centered on water quality and service reliability.

Security posture

The website currently lacks a valid SSL certificate and does not support any TLS protocols, resulting in unencrypted HTTP traffic. No HSTS or advanced security headers are implemented, and session resumption features are absent. While no critical vulnerabilities like Heartbleed or POODLE are detected, the absence of HTTPS is a significant security gap that undermines user trust and data protection. No explicit security or incident response policies are published on the site. The site uses standard WordPress plugins and scripts, which should be regularly updated to mitigate risks. Overall, the security posture is weak and requires urgent improvement to meet modern standards.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and install a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3 protocols and disable insecure legacy protocols.
  3. Implement HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload directives to enforce secure connections.
  4. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  5. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and trust.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress using the Divi theme and several plugins including Yoast SEO, PixelYourSite, and HubSpot integration. The hosting environment uses Apache with PHP 7.4.16 and PleskLin control panel. DNS is managed via Azure DNS servers. Performance data is not available, but the site includes modern SEO and marketing scripts. Mobile optimization is good, and accessibility is basic but functional. The lack of HTTPS and SSL certificate is a critical technical deficiency. The site uses multiple external resources from trusted domains such as Google and Facebook. Overall, the technical stack is standard for a mid-sized business but requires security upgrades and performance monitoring.
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.
