Security score

80/100

Risk levelLow

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

Wienerberger is a well-established manufacturer and distributor of ceramic building materials such as bricks, roof tiles, and clay pavers, targeting construction professionals and end customers primarily in Belgium. The website is professionally designed, leveraging Adobe Experience Manager as its CMS, and integrates modern marketing and analytics tools including Google Tag Manager and Adobe Launch. The presence of a cookie consent banner via Cookiebot indicates attention to privacy compliance, although no explicit privacy policy or terms of service pages were found in the provided content. The WHOIS data for the domain is restricted with a 'NOT ALLOWED' status, limiting transparency about domain registration details. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS implied but no explicit security headers detected. Overall, the website presents a credible and professional business presence but could improve transparency and security practices.

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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

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

Wienerberger operates in the manufacturing sector with a focus on ceramic building materials, holding a strong market position supported by over 200 years of experience. The business model includes product manufacturing, distribution, and value-added services such as training and digital tools for customers. The website content reflects a comprehensive product catalog and service offerings, targeting both professionals and consumers in Belgium. The company maintains a partner domain for employment opportunities, indicating an active business ecosystem. The lack of visible contact details and restricted WHOIS data suggest areas for improvement in customer engagement and transparency.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS and implements a cookie consent mechanism, which are positive security and privacy indicators. However, the absence of visible HTTP security headers and lack of published security or incident response policies reduce the overall security maturity. The restricted WHOIS data limits domain trust assessment. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The site would benefit from enhanced security headers, clear privacy and security policies, and published incident response contacts to improve compliance and trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, and X-Frame-Options.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the website footer or main navigation.
  3. Provide clear contact information including company emails and phone numbers for customer support and security incident reporting.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Increase transparency by publishing WHOIS data or justifying privacy protection consistent with business type.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, a robust enterprise CMS, and uses modern web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. Integration with Google Tag Manager and Adobe Launch enables advanced analytics and marketing capabilities. The site shows good mobile optimization and SEO practices with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Performance is moderate, with some images showing lazy loading errors which could be optimized. No hosting provider details were found. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional digital presence but could improve in performance optimization and accessibility compliance.
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.
