Risk levelMedium

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

Babiel GmbH is a German digital transformation and digital experience company with over 30 years of expertise, operating as part of the CONET Group. The company specializes in strategic consulting and implementation of digital business experiences, serving enterprises and public institutions. Their service portfolio includes digital advisory, customer and citizen experience management, data intelligence, AI, software development, and cloud services. The website is built on Drupal 11, featuring modern consent management and analytics tools, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. Security posture is strong with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, though the absence of a published security policy and incident response details indicates room for improvement. The missing WHOIS registration data for the domain raises concerns about domain legitimacy, though the website content and business information appear professional and trustworthy. Overall, Babiel GmbH presents as a credible and established digital services provider with a solid online presence but should address domain registration transparency and enhance security disclosures.

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

3 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.

    • 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. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Babiel GmbH holds a strong market position as a digital transformation partner, leveraging its affiliation with the CONET Group to offer comprehensive digital solutions. Their business model focuses on B2B consulting and implementation services targeting government and enterprise sectors. The company demonstrates competitive advantages through long-standing experience, a broad service portfolio, and a reputable client base including government entities. Growth indicators include active recruitment and a visible social media presence. The partnership ecosystem is anchored by CONET, enhancing service breadth and market reach. Strategic observations suggest Babiel is well-positioned to capitalize on digital transformation trends but should improve domain registration transparency to reinforce trust.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and employs cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR requirements, indicating a baseline of security and privacy compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the absence of a publicly available security policy, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms limits transparency and preparedness perception. There is no evidence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. Overall, the security maturity is moderate to good but could be improved by publishing comprehensive security documentation and implementing additional HTTP security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a detailed security policy and incident response information on the website.
  2. Implement and expose a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Add HTTP security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Clarify domain registration details and ensure WHOIS data is accurate and publicly available.
  5. Provide contact information for a Data Protection Officer to enhance GDPR compliance transparency.

Usercentrics is used for consent management, reflecting GDPR compliance efforts. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good accessibility features.

Opportunities exist to improve security headers and enhance domain registration transparency to reduce risk.
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.
