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.

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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 organization operates as a membership association serving trade and commerce sectors, offering a broad range of consulting and educational services. It maintains partnerships with several related organizations and provides exclusive member benefits. The business model relies on membership fees and service offerings such as legal advice, HR tools, and training events. The website content and structure support clear communication of services and engagement with members. The presence of multiple partner domains indicates a collaborative ecosystem. The company targets medium-sized businesses and professionals in northern Germany, positioning itself as a regional leader in business support services.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent implemented with opt-in and revocation capabilities. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. There is no public incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which could enhance transparency and trust. The login form uses secure password fields, but additional security measures like multi-factor authentication are not evident. Overall, the site is secure but could benefit from enhanced security policies and disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish an incident response policy and provide a dedicated security contact email to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all users.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize security risks and ensure privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS with Bootstrap framework, leveraging modern web technologies and responsive design. It uses Google Tag Manager and LinkedIn Insight Tag for analytics and marketing, integrated with a cookie consent mechanism that respects user privacy. Performance is moderate with deferred loading of CSS and JavaScript assets. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. No major technical debt or outdated technologies were detected. Hosting details are not explicitly available, but the domain uses stable name servers. The site could improve by adding more advanced accessibility features and optimizing security headers.
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.
