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

5 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 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

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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

  3. 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
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

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.

Add-on

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 positions itself as a specialized IT services provider for the German Mittelstand, leveraging a coalition of experts to deliver innovative and secure IT solutions. Its business model revolves around managed IT services and cloud solutions, with a focus on security and workplace modernization. The use of HubSpot and Google marketing tools indicates a mature marketing strategy aimed at lead generation and customer engagement. The absence of detailed contact information and legal pages suggests areas for improvement in transparency and customer trust. The domain and hosting align with the company's German market focus, supporting legitimacy and operational consistency.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and is protected by Cloudflare's WAF, including Turnstile captcha mechanisms, which enhance defense against automated attacks and bots. Cookie consent management is robust, with detailed cookie categorization and user control, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the lack of visible security headers and published security policies limits transparency. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not publicly documented, representing a potential compliance and trust gap.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page clearly accessible from the homepage.
  2. Add explicit terms of service and security policy pages to improve transparency and compliance.
  3. Include incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Implement and verify security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and marketing tools for security and privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with a child theme and uses popular plugins such as Yoast SEO for search engine optimization. It integrates multiple JavaScript libraries including jQuery, Swiper.js for sliders, and Plyr.js for media playback. HubSpot scripts are used for analytics, marketing automation, and form collection, while Cookiebot manages cookie consent. The site is hosted on INWX nameservers, indicating German hosting. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO is well implemented with meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data for rich snippets. The presence of Cloudflare WAF and Turnstile captcha indicates a strong security infrastructure but may cause access challenges for automated analysis.
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.
