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

ADAC Reisen is a well-established travel service provider affiliated with the reputable ADAC brand in Germany. The company offers a wide range of travel products including package holidays, member-exclusive trips, camper rentals, flights, and cruises. The website demonstrates a high level of professionalism with excellent content quality, clear navigation, and strong branding consistency. Technically, the site uses modern frameworks such as Next.js and React, hosted on DigitalOcean infrastructure, and integrates consent management and analytics tools responsibly.

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

4 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. 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

ADAC Reisen targets primarily ADAC members and general travelers seeking comprehensive travel solutions. Its business model revolves around providing curated travel experiences with exclusive member benefits, leveraging the strong ADAC brand. The company maintains partnerships with flight and cruise booking platforms and offers a broad portfolio of travel services. The website's content and structure indicate a large-scale operation with a focus on quality and customer trust. The presence of multiple related domains and partner sites supports a robust ecosystem. Growth potential is supported by digital maturity and strong market positioning in the German travel sector.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and integration of consent management via Usercentrics. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics, loaded asynchronously to minimize performance impact. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contact information, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. Security headers are inferred but not explicitly confirmed, suggesting room for enhancement. Overall, the site is secure but could benefit from formalizing security governance and communication.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Verify and explicitly implement security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Maintain and regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React and Next.js stack, ensuring server-side rendering and good SEO performance. Hosting on DigitalOcean Spaces for media assets indicates scalable and reliable infrastructure. The site uses Usercentrics for GDPR-compliant consent management and Google Tag Manager for analytics, reflecting a mature digital marketing setup. Performance is optimized with async script loading and prefetching. Mobile optimization and accessibility are well addressed. The technical implementation supports a fast, responsive, and user-friendly experience, suitable for a large-scale travel service provider.
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.
