Risk levelMedium

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

The website designpreis.org serves as the official platform for the ZWP Designpreis, an established German award recognizing outstanding dental practice designs. Operated by OEMUS MEDIA AG, the site provides comprehensive information about the competition, showcases winners, and facilitates applications. The target audience includes dental professionals and architects interested in innovative dental office design. Technically, the site is built on WordPress 6.8.2, uses Matomo for privacy-conscious analytics, and hosts media assets on Amazon S3, reflecting a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protections, but lacks DNSSEC and security headers, indicating room for improvement. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and well-aligned with its niche business purpose.

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.

  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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. 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 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';…

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

The ZWP Designpreis is a niche media and award platform with a strong market position in the German dental sector. Its business model revolves around promoting dental practice design excellence through annual competitions and related publications. The platform benefits from a long history since 2002 and is supported by OEMUS MEDIA AG, a medium-sized media company. The ecosystem includes partnerships with zwp-online.info and related media outlets. Revenue streams likely include sponsorships, advertising, and media sales. The site’s clear focus and consistent branding support its credibility and growth within its specialized market segment.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is properly configured, and the domain status clientTransferProhibited protects against unauthorized transfers. Matomo analytics is configured with DoNotTrack and cookie disabling, enhancing privacy. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which could be a gap in security readiness. There are no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Compliance with GDPR is partial, lacking cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the security posture is functional but could be strengthened with additional best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to mitigate common web attacks.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply fully with GDPR requirements.
  4. Publish explicit security and incident response policies to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to avoid vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern WordPress CMS version (6.8.2) with custom CSS and JavaScript. Media assets are hosted on Amazon S3, ensuring scalable and reliable delivery. Matomo analytics is used with privacy-respecting configurations. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good SEO meta tags. Performance is moderate, likely due to large images and external resources. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. No major technical debt or outdated libraries were detected. Opportunities exist to enhance security headers and implement cookie consent for compliance. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs effectively with room for incremental improvements.
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.
