Risk levelHigh

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

The website www.ekir.de appears to be a German language site with a strong emphasis on accessibility, integrating a comprehensive accessibility tool (digi·access) that offers multiple profiles and customization options for users with various disabilities. The site is built on WordPress CMS and uses common plugins such as Yoast SEO for search engine optimization and MashShare for social sharing. Hosting is provided by Cancom, as indicated by the nameservers. The site includes cookie consent management via Usercentrics, ensuring compliance with cookie regulations. However, explicit privacy policy and terms of service pages were not found in the provided content, which is a gap in compliance and transparency. Contact information such as emails, phone numbers, or physical addresses are not present in the analyzed content, limiting direct communication channels.

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. 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  3. 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

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

The business behind www.ekir.de is not explicitly detailed in the content or structured data. The domain and site appear to serve a German audience, likely related to a church or non-profit organization given the domain name and accessibility focus. The site targets users requiring accessibility accommodations, indicating a socially responsible mission. The business model seems informational and service-oriented rather than commercial. No clear market positioning, revenue streams, or partnerships are evident from the data. The presence of a Twitter handle suggests some social media engagement. The lack of detailed company information and contact data limits deeper business intelligence insights.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and integrates a cookie consent mechanism, which are positive security and privacy practices. The use of Usercentrics for consent management and Piwik (Matomo) for analytics indicates a moderate level of privacy awareness. However, no explicit security headers were detected, and no security or incident response policies are published. There is no evidence of a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file. The site does not expose sensitive data in the analyzed content. The security posture is moderate but could be improved by adding security headers, publishing privacy and security policies, and providing clear security contact information.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve transparency and compliance.
  2. Add explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Provide clear contact information including a dedicated security or abuse contact email.
  4. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including jQuery, Popper.js, and Usercentrics for consent management. SEO is enhanced by Yoast SEO plugin. The site is hosted on Cancom infrastructure, suggesting professional hosting. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features, including a sophisticated accessibility tool offering multiple user profiles and customization. The site uses asynchronous script loading and preconnect hints to optimize resource loading. However, no advanced frameworks or platforms beyond WordPress and common plugins are detected. Technical debt appears low but could be improved by adding security headers and enhancing privacy documentation.
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.
