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. 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 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.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention arbeit-und-leben.de, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for arbeit-und-leben.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

The organization targets a diverse audience including trade unions, public institutions, companies, and private individuals, offering tailored educational and consulting services. Their business model is non-profit, focusing on social and labor market integration. The website reveals partnerships with several related projects and initiatives, indicating a collaborative ecosystem. The presence of multiple contact points and detailed service descriptions suggests a transparent and client-focused approach. The organization leverages digital tools for outreach and engagement, including newsletters and blogs, supporting ongoing communication with stakeholders.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a good SSL configuration and uses Usercentrics for cookie consent, ensuring GDPR compliance. Google Analytics is configured with IP anonymization, reducing privacy risks. However, the absence of explicit security headers and a published security policy or incident response contact limits the security maturity level. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The organization would benefit from publishing a security.txt file and formalizing incident response procedures to enhance trust and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries for vulnerabilities and update accordingly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a robust and widely used content management system. Frontend technologies include Bootstrap for responsive design and Slick Slider for interactive elements. Hosting is managed via DomainControl nameservers, indicating use of GoDaddy services. The site loads with moderate performance and is optimized for mobile devices. SEO practices are good with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The integration of Usercentrics for consent management and Google Analytics for traffic analysis shows a balanced approach to user privacy and analytics needs.
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.
