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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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 Bitburger Braugruppe operates in the manufacturing sector, focusing on brewing and distributing beer and related products. Its business model includes both B2C and B2B elements, serving general adult consumers and specialist customers (Fachkunden). The company maintains multiple subdomains for press, careers, and media databases, indicating a structured approach to content and stakeholder engagement. The website's content and structure suggest a large enterprise with a strong market position in Germany. The absence of explicit contact emails or phone numbers on the main page may indicate a preference for controlled partner access via login areas. The company leverages modern consent management tools to ensure compliance with European data protection regulations.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and includes an age verification mechanism to comply with alcohol-related legal requirements. Cookie consent is managed via OneTrust, reflecting good privacy practices. However, explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options were not identified in the provided data, representing an area for improvement. No vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file was found, which could enhance transparency and incident response readiness. No exposed sensitive data or known vulnerabilities were detected. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from additional hardening and published security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.
  5. Expand contact information availability to include verified company emails and phone numbers for better business credibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the TYPO3 CMS platform, a mature and widely used content management system. It uses OneTrust for cookie consent management, ensuring GDPR compliance. The hosting provider appears to be Deutsche Telekom, based on the nameservers. The site includes a search form powered by the IndexedSearch TYPO3 extension. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO optimization is basic but present, with meta tags and Open Graph tags included. The site uses standard HTML5 and CSS with no obvious broken elements. There is room for technical modernization, especially in security header implementation and enhanced accessibility.
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.
