Risk levelHigh

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

eichels GmbH is a German-based event management and marketing company specializing in emotional marketing, event planning, innovation marketing, and network strategies. The company targets corporate clients seeking impactful and sustainable event experiences. Their website is professionally designed using TYPO3 CMS and modern frontend libraries, providing a good user experience with mobile optimization and clear navigation. Contact information and privacy compliance measures such as cookie consent and privacy policy are present, supporting trustworthiness. However, the absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy and requires further verification. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled and spam-protected emails, but lacks visible security headers and explicit security policies. Overall, the website is functional and professional but would benefit from enhanced security practices and domain registration 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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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: 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)
      • 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
  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 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';…
  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

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.

Breach exposure

Leaked credentials and lookalike domains from OffSeq Breach. The counts are free; the detailed lists are paid add-ons.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention eichels-event.com, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for eichels-event.com right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

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

Business context

Business profile

The company operates in the event management and marketing sector with a focus on emotional and innovation marketing. Their business model is service-oriented, catering primarily to corporate clients in Germany. The website indicates a small-sized enterprise with consistent branding and a clear market position as a regional expert. The presence of a partner domain (invite-e.com) suggests a collaborative ecosystem. Revenue streams likely derive from event planning, marketing consultancy, and training services. The company maintains active social media channels to engage its audience and enhance brand visibility.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses JavaScript obfuscation to protect email addresses, indicating awareness of basic security practices. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No incident response or security policy information is available, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are found. The missing WHOIS data is a critical concern for domain legitimacy and trust. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended headers, publishing security policies, and ensuring domain registration transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection against web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Verify and update domain registration details to ensure WHOIS data is accurate and publicly available.
  4. Regularly update all third-party libraries and CMS components to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct periodic security audits to maintain compliance and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS with frontend technologies including jQuery, Bootstrap 3.3.6, Font Awesome, Fancybox, and Slick Carousel. The site loads moderately fast and is mobile optimized with responsive CSS. Meta tags and Open Graph tags are properly configured for SEO and social sharing. The use of JavaScript for email obfuscation is a positive security measure. However, no hosting provider information is discernible from the data. The site lacks advanced performance optimizations such as HTTP/2 or CDN usage visible from the data. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but has room for modernization and enhanced 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.
