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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  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

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.

Breach exposure

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention deutschebahnconnect.com, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

DB Connect holds a strong market position as part of the Deutsche Bahn Group, focusing on sustainable and flexible mobility solutions. Its business model centers on providing mobility management services and sharing products that reduce emissions and optimize fleet usage. The company targets diverse customer segments including private users, corporate clients, and public sector entities. Partnerships with internal DB portals and external job platforms enhance its ecosystem. The product portfolio and digital presence indicate a mature and growth-oriented business with a focus on innovation in urban mobility.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and integrates a consent management platform (Usercentrics) and Matomo analytics, indicating attention to privacy and security. However, explicit security headers are not detected, and no public security policy or incident response contacts are published. There is no evidence of vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved by adding explicit security headers and publishing security policies to enhance transparency and trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance contact information by providing verified company emails and phone numbers for customer and security inquiries.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure no vulnerable libraries are included.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on CoreMedia CMS with modern JavaScript libraries and integrates Usercentrics for consent management and Matomo for analytics. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate with preloading of fonts and asynchronous script loading. No major technical debt or outdated technologies are evident. Hosting provider details are not explicit but the infrastructure supports a professional and scalable platform suitable for enterprise use.
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.
