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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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';…

  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.

Technical appendix

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

Business context

Business profile

The DGPPN Akademie targets a specialized market segment of healthcare professionals requiring advanced training in psychiatry and psychotherapy. Its competitive advantage lies in its focused educational offerings and partnerships with reputable organizations in the psychiatric community. Revenue streams likely derive from course fees and workshop registrations. The presence of a newsletter and multiple workshop offerings indicates active engagement with its audience. The partnership ecosystem includes well-known psychiatric organizations, enhancing credibility and reach. The business operates primarily in Germany and appears to be a small-sized entity with a clear and consistent brand presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level, with HTTPS enforced and a GDPR-compliant cookie consent banner. The use of Google Analytics is managed with an opt-out option, reflecting privacy awareness. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests room for improvement in security governance. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Implementing additional HTTP security headers and publishing a security policy would strengthen the security posture and incident readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and incident response procedures to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Add explicit contact information for security incidents or abuse to improve incident response capabilities.
  5. Continue monitoring and updating third-party plugins and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities and maintain compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using standard technologies including jQuery and PHP. Performance is moderate with optimization plugins like Autoptimize and lazy loading scripts implemented. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly with proper meta tags and structured data in JSON-LD format. Analytics are handled via Koko Analytics and Google Analytics with privacy considerations. No major technical debt or outdated technologies were detected, though the site could benefit from enhanced accessibility features and additional security headers. Hosting provider details were not explicitly identified from the data.
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.
