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.

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

bevestor's market positioning is strong within the digital investment advisory space in Germany, emphasizing sustainability and automated portfolio management. Their business model revolves around digital onboarding, portfolio customization via an Anlageassistent, and continuous portfolio monitoring by experts. Revenue streams likely include management fees on assets under management. The company maintains a robust partnership ecosystem, including DekaBank for custody and TÜV Saar for certification, enhancing credibility. The presence of a blog and educational content supports customer engagement and brand authority. The company targets retail investors seeking modern alternatives to traditional savings products.

Security posture

The website exhibits a basic security posture with a valid SPF record and no subdomain takeover vulnerabilities. However, a critical security gap exists due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of HTTPS support, exposing users to potential data interception risks. No modern TLS protocols or security headers like HSTS are enabled, and session resumption and OCSP stapling are missing. While cookie consent mechanisms are implemented, the lack of HTTPS severely undermines overall security. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies are not evident. The company should urgently address SSL/TLS implementation to protect user data and comply with best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3) and disable deprecated protocols.
  3. Implement HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload directives.
  4. Enable OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve security and performance.
  5. Publish a clear security policy and vulnerability disclosure program to enhance transparency and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including React and Gatsby, with Primereact UI components and accessibility tools like EyeAble. It uses a static site generation approach for performance and SEO benefits. However, the site suffers from slow load times and a large page size, indicating potential optimization opportunities. Hosting appears to be managed via Ondns.eu DNS services. The site includes comprehensive metadata, Open Graph tags, and JSON-LD structured data for SEO. Cookie consent is managed by Consentmanager.net. Analytics and marketing tools include Google Tag Manager and Adobe DTM. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern but requires security hardening and performance tuning.
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.
