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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Deutsche Post AG holds a dominant position in the German postal and logistics market, leveraging its brand and extensive service portfolio. Its business model focuses on providing essential mail and parcel services to individuals and enterprises, supplemented by digital offerings such as online postage printing and shipment tracking. The company benefits from strategic partnerships and subsidiaries, notably DHL, enhancing its logistics capabilities. The website reflects a customer-centric approach with clear navigation and comprehensive service information. Growth indicators include digital transformation efforts and integration of consent management tools. The company maintains a robust partnership ecosystem and demonstrates operational maturity in its online presence.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security posture with enforced HTTPS, implementation of key security headers, and integration of a reputable cookie consent platform. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. However, the absence of a publicly accessible security policy or incident response contact limits transparency. There is no evidence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file, which are best practices for enterprise websites. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be improved by publishing explicit security governance documents and incident handling procedures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information, such as a security@ or abuse@ email address.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency and user trust by detailing data retention policies and security certifications.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack including JavaScript, SVG icons, Adobe Launch for tag management, and OneTrust for cookie consent management. The site is responsive and optimized for mobile devices, with good accessibility features and SEO meta tags. Performance is moderate, likely due to the integration of multiple third-party scripts. There is no explicit CMS detected from the provided data. Hosting details are not disclosed but the domain uses stable name servers. The technical implementation supports a professional and user-friendly experience, though opportunities exist to improve performance and security transparency.
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.
