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

SCHOTTE e.V. is a small non-profit organization based in Erfurt, Germany, dedicated to promoting theater activities for interested and talented children and youth. The website serves as a platform to showcase upcoming theater performances, provide ticket sales, and share organizational information. The organization positions itself as a local cultural institution with a focus on youth engagement in the arts. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with a suite of plugins including WooCommerce for ticket sales, GiveWP for donations, and Smart Slider 3 for visual content. Hosting is provided by Goneo, as indicated by the nameservers. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and user experience, though some technical improvements in security headers and cookie consent mechanisms are recommended. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data. However, it lacks several important security headers and a cookie consent mechanism, which are important for GDPR compliance and overall security posture. No signs of WAF or content blocking were detected, and the WHOIS data aligns well with the website's identity, indicating legitimacy. Overall, the site is professionally maintained with a clear business focus and good trust indicators. Strategic improvements in privacy compliance and security hardening would enhance its risk profile and user trust.

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

    • 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

  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 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';…

  3. 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 organization operates in the cultural non-profit sector, focusing on youth theater in Erfurt. Its business model revolves around event ticket sales, educational theater programs, and community engagement. The presence of donation plugins suggests additional revenue streams through contributions. The website's partnership with local cultural foundations and theater associations strengthens its market position. The target audience includes children, youth, families, and local cultural patrons. The site reflects a stable, community-oriented operation with consistent branding and active event promotion.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no visible sensitive data leaks. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces its defense-in-depth. The lack of a cookie consent mechanism also poses compliance risks under GDPR. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, indicating potential gaps in security governance. Regular plugin updates and implementation of recommended headers would improve resilience. No critical vulnerabilities or malware indicators were found in the provided content.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve trust and preparedness.
  4. Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and SEO optimization for broader reach and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform with a well-integrated tech stack including WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality, GiveWP for donations, and Smart Slider 3 for dynamic content presentation. The use of jQuery and Fancybox supports interactive UI elements. Hosting is managed by Goneo, a known provider. Performance is moderate with good mobile responsiveness. However, the site lacks advanced SEO and accessibility features and could benefit from performance optimizations and security enhancements. The technical implementation is solid for a small non-profit but has room for modernization and hardening.
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.
