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

The website bhp.lu represents the Bauhärepräis OAI, an architecture and engineering award program managed by the Ordre des Architectes et des Ingénieurs-Conseils (OAI) in Luxembourg. It serves as a platform to showcase award winners, nominees, and related cultural exhibitions, targeting architects, engineers, project owners, and the general public interested in architectural quality and urban development in Luxembourg. The site is professionally designed with consistent branding and good content relevance, reflecting a small but important government-related entity promoting architectural excellence. Technically, the website is built on Drupal 8 CMS, utilizing standard web analytics (Google Analytics) and social sharing tools (AddToAny). The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with moderate performance. However, there is room for improvement in security practices, such as implementing security headers and providing explicit privacy and cookie policies. No contact emails or phone numbers are explicitly provided, which limits direct communication channels. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and anonymizes IP addresses in analytics, but lacks visible security headers and incident response information. No vulnerabilities or suspicious patterns were detected in the WHOIS data, which aligns well with the website's Luxembourg-based professional focus. Overall, the site is trustworthy but could enhance compliance and security posture. Strategic recommendations include adding comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms, improving security headers, publishing contact information for security incidents, and maintaining up-to-date CMS and modules to mitigate vulnerabilities.

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

9 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  3. 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.

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3

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

The Bauhärepräis OAI website positions itself as a key platform for promoting architectural and engineering quality in Luxembourg through awards and public engagement. Its business model is non-profit and professional, focusing on recognition and cultural promotion rather than commercial activities. The site leverages partnerships with official organizations and government portals, enhancing its credibility and reach. The target audience includes professionals in architecture and engineering, public and private project owners, and the general public interested in urban development. The presence of social media links and multimedia content supports community engagement and transparency. Growth opportunities lie in expanding digital presence and improving compliance to meet evolving regulatory standards.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and IP anonymization in analytics. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options indicates potential exposure to common web vulnerabilities. The lack of explicit privacy and cookie policies, as well as incident response contacts, suggests gaps in compliance with GDPR and best security practices. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. To enhance security posture, the organization should implement recommended headers, provide clear privacy documentation, and establish incident response protocols. Regular security audits and CMS updates are also advised.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit user consent mechanisms to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen web security.
  3. Publish clear contact information for security incidents and establish an incident response process.
  4. Regularly update Drupal core and third-party modules to mitigate vulnerabilities and maintain platform security.
  5. Enhance transparency by providing business contact details and data retention policies to build user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 8, a mature and widely used CMS, indicating a stable technical foundation. It uses Google Analytics for visitor tracking and AddToAny for social sharing, reflecting standard digital marketing practices. The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with a clear navigation structure and good content organization. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by image-heavy content and slideshow components. There is no explicit hosting provider information, but the use of Luxembourg-based name servers suggests local hosting or DNS management. Technical risks include potential outdated CMS components and missing security headers, which could impact site integrity and user trust if not addressed.
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.
