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

3RIDES.de is a German-based cycling event website focused on organizing and promoting cycling races and rides in the Dreiländereck region, including internationally recognized UCI Gravel and Gran Fondo World Series events. The site targets cycling enthusiasts, athletes, and families interested in cycling activities, offering event information, race results, training programs, and expo details. The website is built on WordPress with modern plugins and technologies, providing a good user experience with mobile optimization and clear navigation. However, explicit privacy and cookie policies are not found, and no direct contact information is visible, which may impact user trust and compliance. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled but lacks visible security headers and formal security policies. Social media integration is strong, enhancing community engagement and marketing reach.

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

6 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

    • 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

  2. 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"

    • 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 business operates as a niche event organizer in the transportation sector, leveraging partnerships with UCI and datasport.de for race management and results. Its business model centers on event promotion, participant engagement, and ancillary services like bike expos and training. The website's multilingual support and social media presence indicate a strategy to attract both local and international participants. The absence of detailed registrant WHOIS data slightly reduces transparency but does not raise immediate concerns. Growth potential exists through expanded digital presence and enhanced compliance measures.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no visible sensitive data exposure. However, the lack of security headers, absence of a security.txt file, and missing incident response contacts indicate gaps in security best practices. No known vulnerabilities or malware indicators are present in the analyzed content. Compliance with GDPR and other privacy regulations is uncertain due to missing privacy and cookie policies. The site should improve its security framework documentation and implement additional technical controls to enhance resilience and user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve security posture.
  3. Implement and publicize a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting and incident response.
  4. Provide clear and accessible contact information including emails and phone numbers for business and security inquiries.
  5. Regularly audit and update all plugins and themes to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by WordPress with a modern tech stack including jQuery, GSAP for animations, and Elementor for page building. It uses Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking and marketing analytics. The site is hosted on servers indicated by nameservers your-server.de and second-ns.de, suggesting a professional hosting environment. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. Accessibility features are basic and could be enhanced. No critical technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected, but security-related technical improvements are recommended.
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.
