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

  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 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

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

EVH operates within the energy sector, focusing on supply and innovative energy solutions for a regional market. Its business model revolves around energy provision and customer service, supported by digital tools for tariff calculation, online services, and customer engagement. The company benefits from its affiliation with Stadtwerke Halle, enhancing its market credibility and operational scale. The website's linkage to multiple related domains and partner sites indicates a well-integrated ecosystem. Growth potential lies in expanding energy solutions and digital services. The company maintains a professional online presence with clear branding and trust signals, supporting customer acquisition and retention.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security maturity level with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and integration of CAPTCHA to prevent automated abuse. Privacy compliance is robust with a consent management platform and detailed privacy policies. However, the absence of a publicly accessible security policy or incident response contact limits transparency. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. The use of modern libraries and frameworks reduces risk exposure. Recommendations include publishing explicit security governance documents and establishing a vulnerability disclosure channel to enhance trust and preparedness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information to facilitate reporting of security issues.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  4. Regularly audit third-party libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.
  5. Enhance transparency around data retention policies and user data handling.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including Bootstrap for responsive design, jQuery for scripting, and integrates third-party services such as Usercentrics for consent management and FriendlyCaptcha for bot protection. The site is mobile-optimized with good accessibility features and SEO practices. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed through optimization of assets. The technical infrastructure appears stable and well-maintained, supporting a professional user experience. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting details are not disclosed but the presence of security headers and HTTPS indicates a secure hosting environment.
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.
