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

Frankfurt Secret is a small event organization business based in Germany, specializing in fashion, vintage, and heritage festivals in Frankfurt. The website promotes upcoming events with detailed dates and locations, targeting fashion enthusiasts and cultural event attendees. The business operates primarily through event organization and promotion, leveraging a niche market in the local fashion and vintage scene. Technically, the website is built on the Squarespace platform, using modern web technologies and is mobile optimized with moderate performance. Security posture is good with HTTPS and HSTS enabled, but lacks comprehensive security headers and published security policies. Privacy compliance is limited, with no privacy or terms of service pages, though a cookie consent banner is present. Contact information is minimal, limited to an email address and Instagram social media link. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy for its niche but could improve in privacy 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

4 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 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 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

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 company positions itself as a niche event organizer in the fashion and vintage festival sector in Frankfurt. It leverages cultural events to engage a targeted audience of fashion and vintage enthusiasts. The business model centers on event promotion and community engagement through festivals and fashion walks. The website shows consistent branding and a clear event schedule, indicating an active and focused operation. Partnerships or subsidiaries are not evident. The company maintains a social media presence on Instagram, which supports marketing efforts. Growth indicators include recurring annual events and a dedicated event calendar. The lack of detailed business registration or VAT information suggests a small-scale operation.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS with HSTS, indicating a strong baseline for secure communications. However, it lacks additional security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. No security or incident response policies are published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are present. Forms and inputs are minimal, reducing attack surface, but no explicit secure form handling is documented. No known vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small event site but could be improved with standard best practices and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement additional security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Expand contact information to include phone number and physical address for better business credibility.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and SEO optimization for improved user experience and discoverability.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Squarespace platform, utilizing its built-in CMS and hosting infrastructure. It uses Typekit and Google Fonts for typography and standard JavaScript and CSS for interactivity and styling. The site is mobile optimized and uses modern HTML5 and CSS3 standards. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by image sizes and Squarespace's platform overhead. No third-party analytics or tracking scripts were detected, indicating minimal user tracking. The site lacks advanced SEO metadata beyond basic Open Graph tags. Technical debt appears low due to the managed platform, but opportunities exist to improve SEO, accessibility, and security headers.
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.
