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

The Berufsverband für Anthroposophische Kunsttherapie e.V. (BVAKT) operates a professional association website focused on anthroposophic art therapy, integrating painting, sculpture, music, and speech as therapeutic methods. The organization, founded in 1978 and based in Germany, targets patients, therapists, and members interested in holistic health approaches. The website serves as an informational and member resource platform, offering quality assurance guidelines, therapist directories, and educational content. Technically, the site is built on Joomla CMS with modern JavaScript libraries and Bootstrap framework, delivering a moderately performant and mobile-optimized experience. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and cookie consent implemented, though lacking advanced security headers and incident response disclosures. Privacy compliance is strong with a clear privacy policy and cookie banner. Overall, the site is trustworthy and professionally maintained, reflecting the association's long-standing presence and niche market position.

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. 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

  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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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';…

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

BVAKT holds a niche position in the healthcare sector as a non-profit professional association promoting anthroposophic art therapy. Its business model revolves around member services, quality assurance, and patient education rather than commercial sales. The association benefits from a stable market presence since 1978, with a focused target audience of therapists and patients interested in complementary medicine. The website supports this by providing structured navigation, comprehensive content, and contact channels. No evident partnerships or subsidiaries are identified. The lack of advertising and analytics suggests a privacy-respecting approach aligned with the organization's values.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and CSRF tokens present. Cookie consent is implemented in compliance with GDPR. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are published, which could hinder rapid response to security incidents. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The site would benefit from enhanced security policies and transparency to improve trust and resilience.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to harden the site against common attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and CMS components to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users, including those with disabilities.
  5. Consider adding terms of service to clarify user rights and responsibilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Joomla CMS with jQuery 3.7.1 and Bootstrap for responsive design. The presence of KickGDPR plugin indicates attention to privacy compliance. The site loads scripts asynchronously or deferred to optimize performance. The hosting appears to be managed via united-domains nameservers. While the site is mobile-optimized and accessible, SEO optimization is basic with minimal meta tags beyond description and viewport. No analytics or tracking scripts are present, reducing potential privacy concerns but limiting marketing insights. The technical stack is stable but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
