Risk levelMedium

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

The website www.ermoeglicher.de is a service offering by Deutsche Bürgschaftsbanken, a financial institution in Germany specializing in financial guarantees. However, the current accessible content is minimal and primarily a 404 error page, indicating that the requested page or content is not found. The site uses modern tracking and cookie consent technologies such as Usercentrics CMP and etracker analytics, but lacks fundamental elements like metadata, privacy policy, terms of service, and contact information. The technical infrastructure includes JavaScript libraries and cookie consent management but lacks visible security headers and SSL/TLS confirmation. Overall, the security posture is moderate but incomplete due to missing security best practices and transparency. The domain WHOIS data is consistent and supports legitimacy, but the website content and user experience are poor, limiting trust and usability.

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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

  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

Deutsche Bürgschaftsbanken operates in the finance sector, providing financial guarantees and related services. The website targets businesses or entities seeking such financial support. The business model is service-oriented within the financial guarantees niche. The lack of detailed content and contact information on the website limits insight into market positioning and growth. The presence of cookie consent and analytics indicates some digital maturity, but the absence of key legal and contact pages suggests incomplete digital presence. No partnerships or subsidiaries are identified from the website content or WHOIS data.

Security posture

The website demonstrates basic security awareness through the implementation of cookie consent management and blocking cookies until consent is given. However, the absence of HTTPS confirmation, security headers, and published security policies or incident response contacts indicates gaps in security maturity. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content, but the lack of comprehensive security measures and transparency reduces overall security confidence. Compliance with GDPR is partially indicated by the cookie consent mechanism but lacks supporting documentation such as privacy policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate to secure all communications.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  3. Add visible and verified contact information including emails, phone numbers, and physical addresses.
  4. Enhance security posture by adding HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Improve website content quality and navigation to avoid 404 errors and enhance user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses JavaScript-based tracking and cookie consent technologies including etracker and Usercentrics CMP. The HTML structure is minimal with no metadata or structured data, and the visible content is a 404 error page. No CMS or hosting provider information is detected. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic but limited by the lack of content. SEO optimization is poor due to missing meta tags and structured data. The technical debt includes missing security headers and incomplete content delivery.
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.
