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

EV Freaks GmbH operates a professional website focused on e-mobility solutions, primarily through their chargEV app that helps users find EV charging stations and provides backend services and datasets for e-mobility businesses. The company positions itself as a niche player in the energy and transportation sectors, targeting EV users and related businesses. The website is well-structured, professionally designed, and regularly updated, reflecting an active and credible business presence. Technically, the site is built using the Jekyll static site generator, hosted on AWS infrastructure, and employs modern web technologies including FontAwesome and Google Analytics. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly, with good accessibility features. Security-wise, HTTPS is enforced, and domain transfer protections are in place, but DNSSEC is not enabled and security headers are missing, indicating room for improvement. The security posture is solid but could be enhanced by adding explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and cookie consent mechanisms. Privacy compliance is partially addressed with a privacy policy present, but cookie policies and terms of service are absent. No critical vulnerabilities or suspicious patterns were detected, and the WHOIS data aligns well with the business claims, supporting legitimacy. Overall, the website presents a trustworthy and professional front for EV Freaks GmbH, with a good balance of content quality, technical implementation, and business credibility. Strategic improvements in security headers, privacy compliance, and transparency would further strengthen their posture 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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…

  2. 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
  • 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

EV Freaks GmbH is a small German company founded in 2017, specializing in e-mobility solutions. Their flagship product is the chargEV app for iOS devices, complemented by backend infrastructure and high-quality e-mobility datasets for business clients. The company targets EV drivers and e-mobility service providers, positioning itself as a reliable partner in the growing EV charging ecosystem. Their active blog and recent updates indicate ongoing development and engagement with the market. The business model combines app sales with B2B data and backend services, leveraging partnerships and technology to maintain a competitive edge. The absence of physical addresses or phone numbers on the site suggests a digital-first operation. Their use of AWS and modern web frameworks supports scalability and reliability.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and has domain transfer protections, which are positive security indicators. However, the lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represent potential areas of vulnerability. No forms or inputs that collect sensitive data are present, reducing attack surface. The absence of published security policies or incident response contacts limits transparency and preparedness perception. Google Analytics is used for tracking without visible cookie consent, which may raise privacy compliance concerns under GDPR. Overall, the security posture is moderate to good but could benefit from enhanced DNS security, security headers, and privacy transparency to align with best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Add a cookie policy and consent mechanism to comply with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  4. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve trust and readiness.
  5. Consider adding phone and physical address contact details to increase business credibility and user confidence.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Jekyll static site generator, which provides a lightweight and fast-loading platform. Hosting is via AWS, indicated by the DNS nameservers, ensuring reliable infrastructure. The site uses FontAwesome for icons and Google Analytics for visitor tracking. Meta tags and JSON-LD structured data are properly implemented for SEO and social media integration. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with a clear navigation structure. No CMS vulnerabilities or outdated libraries were detected. Performance is fast due to static content delivery. Opportunities exist to modernize security configurations and enhance privacy compliance features.
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.
