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

The Chocolate on the Pillow Group GmbH operates a hospitality business focused on managing hotels in prime locations within the DACH region. Their website, cotp.group, presents a professional and well-structured digital presence built on WordPress with modern performance and SEO optimizations. The company is relatively new, founded in 2023, and positions itself as a provider of high-quality hospitality concepts. Technically, the site uses recognized tools such as WP Rocket for caching, Cookiebot for cookie consent management, and HubSpot for marketing and analytics integration. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer protection, though DNSSEC is not enabled and security headers are not explicitly visible. Privacy compliance is supported by a cookie consent mechanism but lacks a clearly accessible privacy policy or terms of service page. Contact information is not explicitly provided on the homepage content analyzed. Overall, the website is safe, professional, and trustworthy, with room for improvement in transparency and security best practices.

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

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 targets hotel guests and hospitality stakeholders in the German-speaking DACH region, leveraging a business model centered on hotel operations and hospitality services. Their market position is regional with a focus on quality and comfort. The website reflects a consistent brand image and integrates marketing and analytics tools to support customer engagement and business growth. The absence of direct contact details and formal privacy/legal pages suggests a potential area for business process enhancement. The company maintains active social media channels, indicating engagement with broader audiences and marketing ecosystems.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a baseline security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protection. The use of Cookiebot indicates attention to GDPR compliance for cookie management. However, the lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers such as Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS reduces the overall security maturity. No incident response or security policy information is published, which could hinder rapid response to security events. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The security score is moderate, reflecting good foundational practices but lacking advanced security controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the homepage.
  3. Implement standard security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance browser security.
  4. Add explicit contact information including security incident response contacts and data protection officer details if applicable.
  5. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with modern optimization plugins like WP Rocket and SEO tools such as Yoast SEO. It uses jQuery and Leaflet.js for interactive elements and integrates HubSpot forms for marketing and lead capture. Performance is moderate with preconnect hints and lazy loading scripts. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO metadata is well implemented including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Hosting is managed via InterNetX GmbH with DNS servers pointing to agenturserver domains. The site uses Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing tag management. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and more explicit privacy/legal disclosures.
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.
