75/100

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

The website artkapella.de represents a small local cultural venue in Germany focused on visual arts and music events such as exhibitions, vernissages, finissages, and choral concerts. The business model revolves around hosting and promoting cultural events to a general audience interested in arts and music. The site is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including Yoast SEO and React libraries, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. The website is well-structured with good SEO metadata and mobile optimization, but lacks explicit privacy, cookie, and security policies. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled but could be improved by adding security headers and incident response information. Overall, the site is safe, professional, and trustworthy for its intended audience but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance and security transparency.

NIS2 and GDPR posture

Both readouts depend on the site's pages, which could not be loaded in this scan.

Priority findings

No critical or high findings. These medium findings are worth fixing next.

  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.

    • Medium

      No DKIM record found

      DKIM adds cryptographic signatures to emails

      What to do: Configure DKIM with your email provider

    • Medium

      No MTA-STS Policy

      MTA-STS enforces TLS for email delivery

      What to do: Implement MTA-STS to prevent downgrade attacks

  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.

  3. DNS health

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

    • Medium

      DNSSEC Not Enabled

      DNSSEC is not configured for this domain

      What to do: Enable DNSSEC to prevent DNS spoofing attacks

      • CAPEC-142
      • RFC 4033
      • RFC 4035
    • Medium

      Domain Transfer Lock Not Enabled

      Domain can be transferred without authorization

      What to do: Enable domain transfer lock for security

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.
  • GDPR outside view: 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

Art Kapella Schkeuditz operates in the cultural arts sector, providing event hosting and promotion services primarily for local audiences in Germany. The business leverages WordPress CMS with SEO optimization to reach its audience. There is no evidence of commercial transactions or e-commerce functionality, suggesting a non-profit or community-focused model. The lack of detailed business registration or contact information limits deeper business intelligence. The company appears to maintain a consistent brand presence with a focus on arts and music. No partnerships or subsidiaries are indicated. Growth potential may be tied to expanding event offerings and digital presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security posture. HTTPS is properly configured, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others reduces protection against common web attacks. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, which could hinder timely vulnerability reporting and mitigation. The use of popular WordPress plugins suggests regular updates but also requires vigilance against plugin vulnerabilities. No signs of exposed sensitive data or malicious content were found. Overall, the site is secure for general use but should improve transparency and technical defenses.

Recommendations

  1. Add a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to comply with GDPR and enhance user trust.
  2. Implement standard security headers to protect against clickjacking, MIME sniffing, and cross-site scripting.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  4. Include clear contact information such as company email and phone number to improve business credibility.
  5. Regularly audit and update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate known vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by WordPress 6.8.3 with a combination of plugins including Yoast SEO, Contact Form 7, Wysija Newsletters, and UpdraftCentral for site management. The front-end uses React and jQuery libraries, indicating a modern and interactive user experience. The site is mobile optimized and uses canonical URLs and Open Graph metadata for social sharing. Performance is moderate with deferred script loading. No advanced hosting provider details were found. The site lacks advanced accessibility features but meets basic standards. There is room for improvement in security headers and privacy compliance. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs effectively but could benefit from modernization in security and privacy aspects.
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.
