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

7 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. 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 X-Frame-Options header

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 company holds a strong local market position as part of the Stadtwerke Bielefeld Gruppe, serving the community with leisure and wellness facilities. Its business model focuses on direct consumer engagement through ticket sales, courses, and subscription services. The presence of a dedicated e-commerce shop and club membership platform indicates diversified revenue streams and customer loyalty initiatives. The website’s integration with partner domains and municipal services reflects a cohesive ecosystem. Growth indicators include active event promotion, seasonal courses, and wellness offerings. The company leverages digital tools for customer interaction, including online appointment scheduling and chat support, enhancing user engagement and service accessibility.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security posture with HTTPS enabled and a consent management platform ensuring GDPR compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security policy pages and incident response contacts suggests an opportunity to strengthen transparency and readiness. Security headers were not explicitly identified in the provided data, which could be improved to mitigate common web threats. The use of third-party scripts like Google Tag Manager and Consentmanager.net is managed with consent mechanisms, reducing privacy risks. Overall, the site is secure for typical public-facing operations but would benefit from enhanced documentation and security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Implement and verify security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.
  5. Enhance user trust by adding certifications or trust badges related to security and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, leveraging Bootstrap for responsive design and Swiper.js for interactive sliders. It uses a consent management platform from Consentmanager.net to handle GDPR compliance and integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics. The site is mobile-optimized with good accessibility features and SEO practices including structured data (JSON-LD) and meta tags. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in loading times and script management. The technical infrastructure appears stable and modern, suitable for a municipal service provider. Hosting details are not explicitly identified, but domain name servers suggest local/regional hosting. The site includes multiple interactive elements such as chat forms and online booking links, indicating a mature digital engagement strategy.
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.
