The website berlin-sport.de serves as a regional sports news portal focused on Berlin's broad and elite sports scene. It provides news, information, and community engagement features such as voting for sports awards. The site targets sports enthusiasts and local sports communities in Berlin. Technically, the site is built on WordPress using the Divi theme, hosted on German servers, and employs GDPR cookie consent mechanisms, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent implemented, but lacks advanced security headers and explicit privacy policies, which are areas for improvement. Overall, the site is functional and safe for general audiences but would benefit from enhanced compliance 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
6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
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.

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.

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
Berlin-sport.de operates as a niche information provider within the sports sector, focusing on local Berlin sports news and community involvement. Its business model revolves around content publishing and community engagement rather than direct commercial transactions. The site likely generates value through audience engagement and possibly sponsorships or partnerships within the sports ecosystem. The lack of detailed business registration or contact information limits transparency but aligns with a small-scale, community-focused operation. The site’s use of WordPress and common plugins suggests a cost-effective approach to digital presence.
Security posture
The website demonstrates basic security hygiene with HTTPS and GDPR cookie consent in place. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others reduces its defense-in-depth posture. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, which could hinder timely reporting and mitigation of security issues. The lack of a privacy policy and terms of service also represents compliance gaps under GDPR and related regulations. No signs of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content.
Recommendations
Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve legal compliance and user trust.
Implement standard security headers to enhance protection against common web attacks.
Add a security.txt file and incident response contact information to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
Provide clear and verified contact information including emails and phone numbers for business credibility.
Conduct a security audit to identify and remediate any potential vulnerabilities in plugins or configurations.

Technical notes
Notes
The site is built on WordPress with the Divi theme, leveraging Google Fonts and a GDPR cookie plugin. Hosting is via RZone in Germany, consistent with the site's regional focus. The site shows moderate performance and good mobile optimization. SEO and accessibility features are basic but functional. There is room for technical modernization, especially in security hardening and compliance documentation. No advanced analytics or marketing tools were detected, indicating a straightforward technical setup focused on content delivery.
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.
