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

Aktionsbündnis Nichtrauchen e.V. (ABNR) is a German non-profit coalition of 22 nationwide health organizations focused on tobacco and nicotine prevention advocacy. The website serves as an information hub for political lobbying, public awareness, and dissemination of publications and newsletters related to tobacco control. The organization targets health professionals, policymakers, and the general public in Germany. Technically, the website is built on the REDAXO CMS platform, uses jQuery and skrollr for UI effects, and integrates Matomo analytics for privacy-conscious user tracking. The site is mobile-optimized with a clear navigation structure and consistent branding. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies. No contact emails or phone numbers are directly exposed, relying on a contact form instead. WHOIS data shows the domain is active with domaincontrol.com nameservers, typical for GoDaddy hosting, with no privacy protection but limited registrant info. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and safe, with room for improvement in security policy transparency and technical security headers.

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

11 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

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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

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 · found on this site
  • 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.

Add-on

Leaked records that mention abnr.de, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for abnr.de right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

ABNR holds a strong position as a national coalition in the healthcare non-profit sector, focusing on tobacco and nicotine prevention. Its business model revolves around advocacy, political lobbying, and public education. The organization benefits from partnerships with reputable entities like Deutsche Krebshilfe and Deutsche Herzstiftung, enhancing credibility. Revenue streams likely include grants and donations. The website supports growth through newsletters and public campaigns. The absence of direct contact emails suggests controlled communication channels. The partnership ecosystem includes specialized medical societies and health foundations, indicating a collaborative approach. The organization’s market presence is stable but focused on a niche public health domain.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent is implemented, reflecting GDPR awareness. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are published, limiting transparency. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The use of Matomo analytics aligns with privacy best practices. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a non-profit informational site but could be enhanced by adding explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and technical security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to improve protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and trust.
  3. Add explicit contact emails or phone numbers for general and security-related inquiries to improve communication.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to comply with WCAG standards for broader user inclusivity.
  5. Improve SEO by adding structured data (JSON-LD) and enriching meta tags for better search engine visibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a moderately modern technology stack with jQuery 2.2.4, skrollr for parallax effects, and Font Awesome for icons. The CMS is REDAXO, a flexible but less common CMS, which may require specialized maintenance. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of analytics scripts. Mobile optimization is good with responsive meta tags and mobile-friendly navigation. SEO is basic with canonical and hreflang tags but lacks advanced structured data. No major technical debt or deprecated libraries detected, but updating jQuery to a newer version could improve security and performance. Hosting provider details are not explicit but domaincontrol.com nameservers suggest GoDaddy hosting. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs but has room for modernization and security hardening.
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.
