Risk levelHigh

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

EWIVS Certification is a specialized certification provider focusing on person certifications according to ISO 17024, targeting experts and assessors primarily in Germany and Europe. The company offers transparent, practice-oriented certification processes with personal support and a money-back guarantee for pre-checks, positioning itself as a trusted niche player in the certification market. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the Divi theme, with modern SEO and cookie consent implementations, and moderate performance and mobile optimization. Security posture is good with HTTPS and cookie consent but lacks some advanced security headers and explicit incident response information. The absence of WHOIS registration data raises legitimacy concerns, though the professional website content and structured data suggest a legitimate business. Overall, the site scores well on content quality and technical implementation but could improve business credibility and security 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

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  2. 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
      • 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

  3. 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';…

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

EWIVS Certification operates in the certification services sector, focusing on ISO 17024 person certifications. Its business model revolves around providing certification, pre-examination, and training services to professionals such as assessors and experts. The company leverages a European network and emphasizes transparency and risk mitigation through guarantees. The target customers are professionals seeking recognized certifications to enhance credibility. The website indicates a small-sized company with consistent branding and good content quality. The lack of public WHOIS data and direct contact details suggests a need for enhanced transparency to strengthen trust. No partnerships or subsidiaries are evident from the data.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL configuration and uses a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. No security headers were detected in the provided data, and there is no visible security policy or incident response contact information. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The use of third-party scripts like Usercentrics and Google Analytics is standard but requires ongoing monitoring for security. The absence of a security.txt file or explicit vulnerability disclosure policy limits the site's security transparency. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for improvement in headers and incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve trust.
  4. Provide direct company contact emails and phone numbers on the website to enhance business credibility.
  5. Verify and update WHOIS registration information to ensure domain legitimacy and reduce suspicion.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using the Divi theme, enhanced with plugins such as Rank Math SEO and Usercentrics for cookie consent. It uses jQuery and modern JavaScript modules. The site loads Google Analytics for tracking with IP anonymization enabled. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. The site uses structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO and social media integration. Hosting provider details are not evident from the data. No critical technical debt or vulnerabilities were detected, but security headers are missing, which is a technical risk. Overall, the technical infrastructure is standard for a small professional service website.
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.
