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

The Berufsgenossenschaft für Gesundheitsdienst und Wohlfahrtspflege (BGW) operates as a statutory accident insurance provider for individuals working in the health and social services sectors in Germany. The website serves as a comprehensive portal offering information on accident insurance, prevention, rehabilitation, health protection, and training services. It targets professionals and organizations within the healthcare and welfare industries, positioning itself as a trusted and established institution within the German social system. Technically, the website is built on the CoreMedia CMS platform, hosted on Colt Technology Services infrastructure, and employs modern web technologies including JavaScript and CSS. It integrates analytics tools such as Matomo and eTracker for user behavior tracking, although it lacks a visible cookie consent mechanism. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly, providing a positive user experience. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and mentions the use of two-factor authentication for member services, indicating a commitment to protecting user data. However, explicit security headers are not evident, and no public security or incident response policies are found. The WHOIS data shows professional hosting but limited registrant details, which is typical for large institutional domains. Overall, the website demonstrates a strong business credibility and technical maturity with minor gaps in privacy compliance and security transparency. It is safe for general audiences and free from adult or questionable content.

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

4 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.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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

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

BGW holds a significant market position as a statutory accident insurance provider in Germany's healthcare and social welfare sectors. Its business model is non-profit, focusing on prevention, rehabilitation, and insurance services. The organization offers a broad range of services including seminars, online portals for members, and extensive informational resources. The website reflects a well-structured digital presence with clear navigation and professional branding. BGW maintains active social media channels to engage with its audience and enhance outreach. The lack of direct contact emails or phone numbers suggests a preference for controlled communication via web forms, aligning with institutional communication standards.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and the implementation of two-factor authentication for sensitive user services. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options is a minor gap. There is no publicly available incident response or security policy, which could improve transparency and trust. The use of reputable analytics platforms is balanced by the lack of a visible cookie consent mechanism, which may affect GDPR compliance. Overall, the security measures are adequate for the business context but could be enhanced with additional headers and policy disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publicly disclose a comprehensive security policy and incident response plan to enhance transparency.
  2. Add standard security headers (e.g., Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, Strict-Transport-Security) to improve protection against common web attacks.
  3. Introduce a visible cookie consent mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and improve user privacy control.
  4. Provide clear contact information including official emails and phone numbers for support and security incident reporting.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and analytics tools to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the CoreMedia CMS platform, indicating a robust enterprise-grade content management system. Hosting is managed by Colt Technology Services, a reputable provider, ensuring reliable infrastructure. The site uses modern front-end technologies including responsive CSS and JavaScript frameworks to deliver a good user experience across devices. Analytics integration with Matomo and eTracker shows a focus on data-driven insights, although the absence of cookie consent is a technical and compliance gap. Performance appears moderate with no evident blocking scripts or heavy resources. Accessibility features such as ARIA labels and semantic HTML are present, supporting inclusive design. Opportunities exist to enhance security headers and privacy controls to reduce technical risks.
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.
