Security report for beisheim-stiftung.com

Beisheim Stiftung · Non-profit · Germany

Partial score · DNS & email only

75/100

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

Beisheim Stiftung is a non-profit foundation operating primarily in Germany and Switzerland, providing funding and support for various projects. The website serves as an informational portal offering downloadable resources such as funding criteria and application guidelines. The foundation targets applicants and partners interested in its funding programs. Technically, the website is built using the Nuxt.js framework and integrates Cookiebot for cookie consent management, ensuring compliance with privacy regulations. The site employs HTTPS and uses Piwik Analytics for visitor statistics, reflecting a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks visible security headers and explicit security policies. The absence of WHOIS data and contact information slightly reduces trustworthiness. Overall, the website is professional and functional but could improve transparency and security documentation.

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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 384-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

  • 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 foundation occupies a niche position in the non-profit sector, focusing on regional funding activities in Germany and Switzerland. Its business model revolves around grant-making and information dissemination. The website supports this by providing clear funding criteria and downloadable documents for applicants. The lack of direct contact details and social media presence suggests a controlled communication approach, possibly to manage inquiries efficiently. The use of a custom CMS and modern JavaScript framework indicates investment in digital infrastructure. The foundation's partnership ecosystem is not explicitly detailed on the site. Growth indicators and revenue streams are not publicly disclosed, consistent with typical non-profit transparency norms.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and a comprehensive cookie consent banner is implemented, reflecting GDPR compliance efforts. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap. No security.txt or incident response information is published, limiting transparency in vulnerability management. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of Piwik Analytics is privacy-friendly compared to other analytics platforms. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a non-profit informational site but could be enhanced with additional security controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, HSTS) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear and accessible privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve compliance and user trust.
  3. Add contact information including emails and phone numbers to facilitate communication and support.
  4. Create and publish a security.txt file to provide a formal channel for vulnerability disclosure.
  5. Regularly review and update cookie and privacy compliance mechanisms to maintain GDPR adherence.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Nuxt.js, a modern Vue.js framework, indicating a contemporary front-end technology stack. It uses a custom CMS backend hosted at cms.beisheim.com for content management and asset delivery. Cookiebot is integrated for cookie consent management, providing granular user control over cookie categories. The site loads multiple JavaScript bundles asynchronously, suggesting optimization for performance. However, no explicit hosting provider or CDN was identified from the HTML content. The site appears mobile-optimized with responsive design elements. Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO optimization is minimal with basic meta tags and no structured data like JSON-LD detected. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in loading speed and SEO.
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.
