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. 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

  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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

The business operates in the hospitality sector, targeting vacationers and tourists visiting Rügen island. It leverages partnerships with booking platforms like direct-book.com and thebookingfactory.com for reservations. The business model centers on accommodation and related guest services, with a focus on a unique Bavarian-themed ambiance and quiet location near the town center. Customer testimonials and clear contact details enhance credibility. The company appears to be a standalone small entity founded around 2018, with no parent or subsidiaries indicated. The website content and structure support effective customer engagement and booking facilitation.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS and implements GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanisms, indicating a baseline security awareness. However, no explicit HTTP security headers were detected in the provided data, which could improve protection against common web attacks. The presence of obfuscated inline JavaScript is a potential risk and should be audited to ensure no malicious code is present. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, which is common for small businesses but represents an area for improvement. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be enhanced with additional headers and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Audit and remove or clarify the purpose of obfuscated inline JavaScript to mitigate potential security risks.
  3. Publish a basic security policy or incident response contact to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Keep all WordPress plugins and themes updated to reduce vulnerability exposure.
  5. Regularly test the website for vulnerabilities and compliance with evolving data protection regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using PHP and JavaScript libraries including jQuery and Smart Slider 3 for UI components. It employs common plugins such as Contact Form 7 for forms and GDPR Cookie Compliance for privacy management. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and includes SEO best practices like meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Performance is moderate with no major issues detected. Hosting provider details are not explicit. The technical stack is standard for small hospitality websites, offering ease of maintenance but requiring vigilance on plugin updates and security configurations.
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.
