The website offers a rich variety of educational content including articles, quizzes, games, videos, and teaching materials, positioning itself as a leading resource in the German-speaking region for rainforest awareness and activism. The organization actively engages its audience with campaigns and donation drives, supported by a professional and consistent brand presence. Technically, the website is built with modern web standards including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript ES modules. It employs privacy-conscious analytics (Matomo) and cookie consent mechanisms, ensuring compliance with GDPR. The site is mobile-optimized, fast-loading, and accessible, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. Hosting details are not explicit but use privacy-focused nameservers. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and secure form submissions but lacks explicit security policies or incident response information. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Privacy compliance is strong with clear privacy and cookie policies. The WHOIS data indicates privacy-protected domain registration consistent with non-profit best practices. Overall, the website presents a low-risk profile with strong educational value and good technical and privacy standards.

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. 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

    • 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

  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 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';…
  3. 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

Abenteuer Regenwald e.V. occupies a niche in environmental education focused on rainforest conservation, targeting young audiences and educators. Its competitive advantage lies in its comprehensive, interactive content and long-standing presence (approx. 20 years). The non-profit business model relies on donations and community engagement through campaigns and educational outreach. The organization leverages partnerships and certifications to build credibility and trust. Its digital presence is well-structured to support growth and engagement, with clear calls to action and social media integration. The absence of a formal security policy or incident response plan suggests an area for organizational maturity improvement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to strong security posture with mandatory HTTPS, secure form handling, and privacy-respecting analytics. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and does not publish a security policy or incident response contact, which are best practices for transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or sensitive data exposures were found. GDPR compliance is evident through privacy and cookie policies. The organization should consider formalizing and publishing security governance documents and implementing additional HTTP security headers to enhance protection and user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a formal security policy and incident response plan accessible on the website.
  2. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Create and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Provide contact information for a Data Protection Officer or security contact to improve transparency.
  5. Continue maintaining privacy compliance and consider periodic security audits to identify and mitigate risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack with ES modules, CSS3, and HTML5, ensuring good performance and mobile responsiveness. It employs Matomo for analytics, reflecting a privacy-conscious approach. The site is well-structured with semantic HTML and accessible navigation. Hosting is via privacy-focused nameservers (desec.io and desec.org), indicating attention to registrant privacy. Performance is fast with no broken elements detected. There is no indication of a commercial CMS, suggesting a custom or lightweight solution. The site could benefit from enhanced security headers and formalized security documentation to reduce technical risks.
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.
