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
6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
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
GDPR outside view
These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.
Critical
EU business without adequate privacy measures
EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements
What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures
High
No Cookie Policy found
GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage
What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes
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 X-Frame-Options header
Prevents clickjacking attacks
What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

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.

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

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
The Social Innovation Center operates as a non-profit government initiative under Region Hannover, targeting social entrepreneurs and partners interested in social business models. Its competitive advantage lies in its free, structured support program and strong regional partnerships with economic development agencies and city government. The business model focuses on community building, mentoring, and resource provision rather than direct revenue generation. The presence of multiple official partners and consistent branding indicates a stable ecosystem. Growth indicators include ongoing events, workshops, and active social media engagement. The center's operations align with regional development goals and social innovation agendas.
Security posture
The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, privacy-conscious analytics (Matomo with DoNotTrack and cookie-less tracking), and a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism allowing granular user control. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and lack of a published security policy or incident response information are areas for improvement. No security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy was found, which could enhance transparency and incident handling readiness. Overall, the site balances user privacy and security well but could benefit from formalizing security policies.
Recommendations
Implement security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
Publish a clear security policy and incident response information on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve trust with security researchers.
Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
Continue enhancing accessibility and mobile optimization to maintain high user experience standards.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built with standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, leveraging libraries such as jQuery, Swiper.js for sliders, and Simple Lightbox for image viewing. It uses Matomo for analytics with privacy-respecting configurations. The CMS is not explicitly identified but appears custom or proprietary. Performance is moderate with good mobile responsiveness and accessibility features. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The site uses canonical links and hreflang tags for language targeting. There is no evidence of heavy technical debt or outdated technologies, but some improvements in security headers and formal documentation could be made to modernize the technical infrastructure further.
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.
