Risk levelHigh

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

The Deutscher Turner-Bund (DTB) is a leading German sports federation specializing in gymnastics, fitness, and health sports. The website reflects a comprehensive and professional digital presence, offering extensive information on various sports disciplines, education, events, and organizational structure. The DTB targets sports clubs, athletes, and fitness enthusiasts across Germany, promoting values such as fairness, tolerance, and respect within the sports community. Technically, the site is built on TYPO3 CMS, integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics, and employs a consent management platform for cookie compliance. While the site is well-structured and mobile-optimized, it lacks explicit privacy policy and terms of service pages, which are critical for GDPR compliance. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled but missing security headers and no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information. Overall, the DTB website is a trustworthy and professional platform with room for improvement in privacy and security transparency.

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

9 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

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: PostgreSQL

      Port 5432 (PostgreSQL) is publicly accessible - PostgreSQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to PostgreSQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  3. 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

      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options 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 · found on this site
  • 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

DTB holds a strong market position as Germany's primary gymnastics and fitness sports federation, operating as a non-profit entity. Its business model focuses on community engagement, education, event management, and promoting safe sport practices. The website links to several partner domains including the DTB Academy and DTB Shop, indicating a broad partnership ecosystem. The absence of detailed registrant WHOIS data is typical for organizations using hosting providers but does not detract from legitimacy. The target audience includes sports clubs, athletes, and health-conscious individuals, with services spanning from grassroots to elite sports. The site’s content and navigation support a large, diverse user base, reflecting a mature digital strategy.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and integrates cookie consent mechanisms, demonstrating baseline security and privacy awareness. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of published security policies or incident response contacts indicate gaps in security maturity. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The use of Google Tag Manager introduces moderate tracking, which is managed via consent. The site would benefit from publishing a security.txt file and explicit vulnerability disclosure to enhance transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be strengthened to align with best practices and compliance requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages prominently linked on the website.
  2. Implement and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Create and publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by TYPO3 CMS, a robust open-source content management system, indicating a solid technical foundation. Integration of Google Tag Manager and Consentmanager.net shows adoption of modern analytics and privacy tools. The site is mobile-optimized with smooth navigation and consistent branding. Hosting appears to be managed via your-server.de and second-ns.de nameservers, typical for professional hosting providers. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading. The site lacks some advanced SEO and accessibility features but maintains good meta tag usage and structured navigation. Technical risks are low but could be mitigated by updating security headers and improving privacy disclosures.
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.
