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

CALAMUS-AREAL is a medium-sized hospitality and leisure complex located in Kehl, Germany, offering a comprehensive range of services including a 4-star superior hotel, spa and wellness facilities, multiple restaurants, event locations, and entertainment options such as an electric kart racing track. The website is professionally designed with excellent content quality, clear navigation, and strong branding consistency, targeting families, groups, and business travelers seeking leisure and relaxation. The business holds a solid regional market position with a domain age consistent with its operational history since 2016. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern plugins such as Yoast SEO and Modern Events Calendar Lite, leveraging the UIkit framework for responsive design. The site demonstrates good SEO practices, accessibility, and mobile optimization. Hosting details suggest professional management with domain control via domaincontrol.com nameservers. Performance is moderate, with no critical technical issues detected. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS with a good SSL configuration and implements cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and there is no publicly visible security policy or incident response contact information. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found. The WHOIS data indicates a legitimate and consistent domain registration without privacy protection, enhancing trustworthiness. Overall, CALAMUS-AREAL presents a low-risk profile with strong business credibility and privacy compliance. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, publishing security and incident response policies, and adding terms of service to enhance legal completeness and user trust.

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. 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

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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

CALAMUS-AREAL operates in the hospitality and leisure sector, providing integrated services on a large 46,000 m² site. Its business model focuses on combining accommodation, wellness, gastronomy, and entertainment to attract diverse customer segments including families, groups, and corporate clients. The presence of multiple partner domains indicates a collaborative ecosystem enhancing service offerings. The website's content and structured data reflect a mature digital presence with ongoing marketing efforts via social media and Google Tag Manager. The domain age and registration details support a stable operational history. No direct revenue streams or e-commerce functionalities were detected on the main site, but linked partner sites may handle transactions. Growth potential lies in expanding event hosting and wellness services.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR requirements. WHOIS domain status flags prevent unauthorized domain modifications, adding a layer of protection. However, the absence of DNSSEC leaves DNS queries vulnerable to spoofing attacks. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, which could hinder timely communication in case of security incidents. No vulnerable or outdated libraries were detected in the HTML content. The site does not expose sensitive data or credentials. Overall, the security maturity is moderate to good but could be improved by adopting DNSSEC and publishing formal security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page including incident response contacts.
  3. Add a terms of service page to clarify user agreements and legal terms.
  4. Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party plugins and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using version 6.8.3, enhanced with popular plugins such as Yoast SEO for search engine optimization and Modern Events Calendar Lite for event management. The UIkit framework is used for responsive and accessible front-end design. JavaScript libraries include jQuery 3.7.1 and various Borlabs Cookie scripts for cookie management and consent. The site loads multimedia content such as videos and images optimized with WebP formats. Hosting appears stable with domaincontrol.com nameservers, likely linked to GoDaddy services. Performance is moderate with no critical errors or broken elements detected. The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with good SEO metadata and structured data in JSON-LD format. Opportunities exist to improve DNS security and add formal security documentation.
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.
