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

Dataport.kommunal is a large German public sector IT service provider specializing in digital transformation solutions for municipalities. The website presents a professional and content-rich platform targeting local government entities, offering tailored digital services to improve citizen engagement and administrative efficiency. Technically, the site is built on TYPO3 CMS with modern JavaScript libraries, providing good accessibility and SEO features. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support significantly weakens its security posture. While privacy and cookie policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, the lack of DMARC and HSTS reduces email and transport security. Overall, the site demonstrates strong business credibility and trust indicators but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and enhance 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.

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

Business profile

Dataport.kommunal holds a leading position in the German public sector IT market, focusing on digitalization of municipal services. Its business model revolves around providing specialized software solutions, consulting, and cloud services to local governments. The company leverages partnerships with its parent entity Dataport and maintains a strong ecosystem including job portals and customer portals. The target audience is primarily municipalities seeking to modernize administrative processes. The presence of ISO 27001 certification and detailed privacy policies indicates a mature compliance posture. The website content and navigation support effective user engagement, reflecting a well-established brand with consistent messaging and trust signals such as testimonials and certifications.

Security posture

The website currently lacks a valid SSL certificate and does not support HTTPS, exposing users to potential interception and data integrity risks. No modern TLS protocols are enabled, and critical security headers like HSTS are missing. Email security is partially addressed with a valid SPF record but lacks DMARC, increasing susceptibility to phishing and spoofing. No OCSP stapling is implemented, which could delay certificate revocation checks. The site shows no signs of subdomain takeover vulnerabilities and does not use vulnerable libraries. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, indicating potential gaps in transparency. Overall, the security posture is weak and requires immediate remediation to meet modern standards and protect user data.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 protocols and disable outdated protocols.
  3. Configure HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload directives.
  4. Publish a DMARC record to complement the existing SPF and improve email security.
  5. Enable OCSP stapling to improve certificate validation performance and security.
  6. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency.
  7. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to avoid vulnerabilities.
  8. Enhance performance optimization to reduce page load times below 3 seconds.
  9. Maintain and promote privacy compliance with clear data retention policies.
  10. Continue to leverage trust indicators such as certifications and testimonials.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by TYPO3 CMS, a robust open-source content management system widely used in the public sector. It uses jQuery and GLightbox for UI interactions and Leaflet.js for interactive maps. The DNS is managed by INWX with no DNSSEC enabled, but SPF is correctly configured. The site lacks a valid SSL certificate and does not support any TLS versions, which is a critical technical deficiency. Performance is moderate with a page load time of approximately 4.8 seconds and 110 resources loaded. The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with good SEO metadata including Open Graph and Twitter cards. Hosting appears to be managed by Dataport or associated providers. Technical debt is indicated by missing HTTPS and security headers, which should be prioritized for modernization.
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.
