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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 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
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…
  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.

Business context

Business profile

Braintrust GmbH operates in the technology sector as a digital agency with a focus on web, video, and event management solutions. Their competitive advantage lies in their comprehensive service portfolio, local Austrian hosting with GDPR compliance, and a strong client base including government and large corporations. The business model leverages software tools like EventMaker and KontaktManager to provide scalable event and contact management solutions. Growth indicators include a broad service offering, multiple related domains, and a visible presence in key Austrian markets. Partnerships with event and video platforms strengthen their ecosystem. The company targets business clients requiring professional digital communication and event services, positioning itself as a reliable and innovative market leader.

Security posture

The security maturity of Braintrust GmbH's website is good, with HTTPS enforced and use of Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms. Cookie consent mechanisms comply with GDPR requirements, and data hosting is localized in Austria with explicit mention of DSGVO compliance. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of a published security policy and incident response contact information indicates room for improvement in transparency and preparedness. Security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not explicitly confirmed and should be implemented to harden the site further. Overall, the security culture appears professional but could benefit from formalized documentation and proactive vulnerability disclosure channels.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Conduct regular security audits and penetration testing to identify and remediate vulnerabilities.
  4. Establish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  5. Maintain up-to-date software and plugins to minimize exposure to known vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform enhanced with Yoast SEO for search optimization and Matomo for privacy-focused analytics. It uses modern web technologies including FontAwesome for icons and Google reCAPTCHA for bot protection. Hosting is localized in Austria with DSGVO-compliant server housing, supporting data privacy and security. The site demonstrates good mobile responsiveness and accessibility features.

The technical stack is mature and well-maintained, supporting the business's digital service offerings effectively. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and formalize security documentation 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.
