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

Faire Integration is a German nationwide non-profit advisory service focused on providing free labor and social law consultation to refugees and migrants from non-EU countries. Coordinated by the Fachstelle Faire Integration under IQ Consult gGmbH, a subsidiary of DGB Bildungswerk e.V., the organization operates through multiple regional counseling centers and offers multilingual support. The website serves as an information hub with resources, videos, and contact points for beneficiaries. The project is funded by German federal ministries and the European Union, ensuring strong institutional backing and trustworthiness. Technically, the website is built on the KONTEXT-CMS platform with modern frontend technologies including Tailwind CSS and jQuery. It is mobile responsive and optimized for accessibility and SEO. The site uses Matomo analytics with an opt-in cookie consent mechanism, reflecting good privacy practices. Hosting is provided by Warenform, consistent with the CMS provider, indicating a stable technical infrastructure. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, the site lacks explicit security headers and published security or incident response policies, which could be improved to enhance trust and compliance. Privacy compliance is strong with a clear privacy policy and cookie consent banner. Business credibility is high due to transparent funding, partnerships, and professional content. Overall, Faire Integration presents a trustworthy, well-structured, and professionally maintained online presence supporting a socially important mission. Strategic improvements in security policy transparency and technical security headers would further strengthen its posture.

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.

Priority findings

5 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 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';…
  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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 384-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Faire Integration occupies a unique position as a government-funded non-profit advisory service targeting refugees and migrants in Germany. Its competitive advantage lies in its nationwide network, multilingual offerings, and institutional backing by federal ministries and the EU. The business model is service-oriented, relying on public funding rather than commercial revenue streams. Key customer segments include refugees and migrants needing labor and social law advice. The partnership ecosystem includes major German federal agencies and ministries, enhancing credibility and resource access. Growth indicators include multilingual expansion and digital resource development. Operationally, the organization emphasizes accessibility, anonymity, and free services, aligning with its social mission.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and no detected vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data. The use of an opt-in cookie consent mechanism for Matomo analytics aligns with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS reduces defense-in-depth. No published security policy or incident response contacts limit transparency and preparedness communication. There is no evidence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced technical controls to mitigate risks and improve stakeholder confidence.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Consider establishing a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher standards and improve user experience for all audiences.
  5. Maintain and regularly audit privacy compliance and cookie consent mechanisms to adapt to evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a stable CMS platform (KONTEXT-CMS 3.9.7) with modern frontend technologies including Tailwind CSS and jQuery 3.6.0. It uses FontAwesome for icons and integrates Matomo analytics with an opt-in consent model. Hosting is provided by Warenform, which also supplies CDN resources. The site is mobile responsive and SEO optimized with appropriate meta tags and multilingual hreflang attributes. Performance is moderate, with no major issues detected. Technical debt appears low, but opportunities exist to improve security headers and accessibility compliance. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business goals effectively with room for modernization in security and accessibility.
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.
