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

The Deutsche Gesellschaft für christliche Kunst e.V. operates the DG Kunstraum Diskurs Gegenwart website, serving as a cultural and artistic forum with a Christian perspective focused on contemporary art and discourse. The organization is a small non-profit entity based in Germany, offering exhibitions, events, publications, and membership opportunities to art enthusiasts and the Christian art community. The website reflects this mission with rich content, event previews, and partner collaborations, targeting a niche audience interested in art and culture within a religious context. Technically, the website is built on WordPress and employs common JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Masonry for layout and image handling. The site is moderately optimized for performance and mobile devices, with good design quality and clear navigation. However, accessibility features and SEO optimizations are basic, and no advanced frameworks or hosting details are evident from the content. From a security standpoint, the site uses HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data or vulnerable libraries. However, it lacks important security headers and does not provide explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure information. Privacy compliance is partially addressed with a privacy policy and cookie policy, but no active cookie consent mechanism is implemented. Contact information is limited to social media links, with no direct email or phone contacts visible. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professionally presented, suitable for its cultural non-profit purpose. Strategic improvements in security headers, privacy consent, and incident response transparency would enhance its security posture and compliance. The domain registration aligns well with the organization's profile, supporting legitimacy and trustworthiness.

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. 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

  2. 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

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

Business context

Business profile

DG Kunstraum is positioned as a culturally significant non-profit art organization in Munich, focusing on Christian and contemporary art. Its business model revolves around art exhibitions, events, publications, and fostering a community through memberships. The organization leverages partnerships with local cultural institutions and maintains an active social media presence to engage its audience. Revenue streams likely include membership fees, event participation, and publication sales. The website content and partner links indicate a stable ecosystem with regional influence but limited commercial scale. Growth potential lies in expanding digital engagement and enhancing transparency in governance and security practices.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and no visible vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces its defense-in-depth. Lack of incident response contacts and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates limited preparedness for security incidents. Privacy compliance is basic, with policies present but no cookie consent mechanism. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small non-profit but could benefit from adopting best practices to mitigate risks and improve user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement essential security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and improve user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish incident response contact information and consider a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to foster responsible security communication.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users and meet modern web standards.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses WordPress CMS with a custom theme and relies on JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, Masonry, and ImagesLoaded for dynamic layout and image handling. Images are optimized with WebP format support. The site is mobile responsive and has a clear navigation structure. Performance is moderate, with no evident advanced caching or CDN usage from the provided data. SEO and accessibility are basic, with room for improvement in metadata completeness and ARIA attributes. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Overall, the technical infrastructure is standard for a small cultural non-profit but could be modernized for better performance and security.
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.
