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

accessibility.cloud is a non-profit initiative operated by SOZIALHELDEN e.V., focused on aggregating and sharing standardized accessibility data globally to foster an inclusive world. The platform offers free API access to location-based accessibility data and encourages organizations to contribute their data. Supported by reputable partners such as Google.org and Wheelmap.org, it holds a niche position in the accessibility data ecosystem. Technically, the website is built on the Meteor framework with integration of Mapbox mapping libraries, hosted with Cloudflare DNS and AWS S3 for uploads. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization, accessibility, and SEO practices, though performance is moderate. No CMS is detected, and the technical stack is modern but could benefit from enhanced security headers and DNSSEC. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and has domain transfer protections but lacks DNSSEC and security headers. There is no visible privacy or cookie policy, nor a published security or incident response policy, indicating compliance gaps. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The domain WHOIS data is consistent with the organization's profile, showing a stable and legitimate registration. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional with good content quality and business credibility. However, it should improve privacy compliance and security posture by adding policies, security headers, and DNSSEC. These enhancements will strengthen user trust and regulatory compliance.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  2. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Unregistered MX Record

      MX record points to unregistered domain: held01.sozialhelden.de

      What to do: Remove or fix MX record pointing to unregistered domain

      • RFC 5321 §5.1
      • NIS2 21(2)(i)
      • IR 2024/2690 12.4: Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 12.4: Asset inventory
      • NIST CM-8: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-8: System Component Inventory
  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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048
  4. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

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

accessibility.cloud operates as a small non-profit entity focused on accessibility data sharing. Its competitive advantage lies in its open API and standardized data format, enabling broad usage by developers and researchers. Revenue streams are likely limited or grant-based given the NGO status. The target audience includes app developers, researchers, NGOs, and the general public interested in accessibility. The partnership ecosystem with recognized organizations enhances credibility and reach. Growth indicators include ongoing development of real-time elevator data integration. Strategic observations suggest focusing on expanding data sources and improving compliance to attract more contributors and users.

Security posture

The current security maturity is moderate. HTTPS is enforced, and domain transfer is protected, but DNSSEC is not enabled, and no security headers are detected, which are important for preventing common web attacks. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and other regulations. No incident response or security contact information is published, limiting transparency. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found, which is positive. The security culture appears basic but could be improved by formalizing policies and implementing recommended headers and DNSSEC.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  4. Add a security policy page including incident response contact information (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email).
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Meteor 1.4.4.2 as its primary framework, combined with Mapbox.js and Mapbox GL JS for interactive mapping features. Hosting is supported by Cloudflare DNS and AWS S3 for file storage. The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with good SEO metadata including Open Graph and Twitter cards. Performance is moderate, likely due to map rendering and JavaScript usage. No CMS is detected, indicating a custom or framework-based build. Technical risks include lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers, which should be addressed to reduce attack surface and improve 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.
