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 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.

Business context

Business profile

The Dachverband der autonomen Frauenberatungsstellen NRW e.V. operates as a medium-sized non-profit entity focused on women's rights and support services in NRW, Germany. It consolidates 52 autonomous counseling centers, providing a unified voice and resources for women facing crises and violence. The business model centers on advocacy, direct support, education via its academy, and public awareness. Revenue streams likely include donations, grants, and public funding, with a visible donation platform integrated. The organization maintains active social media channels and emergency contact information, enhancing community engagement and trust. Its market position is strong regionally, with over 30 years of operational history. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image, supporting its credibility and outreach efforts.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforced and a GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanism. Use of Matomo Analytics indicates privacy-conscious tracking practices. No exposed credentials or sensitive data were found in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, which could be addressed to enhance transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is good for a non-profit organization, with recommendations to implement additional headers and publish a security.txt file for vulnerability reporting.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance browser security.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response contact information.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance transparency by adding a dedicated security or data protection officer contact page.
  5. Continue maintaining and updating privacy and cookie policies to comply with evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10, a modern and robust CMS platform, ensuring maintainability and scalability. It uses jQuery and jQuery UI for UI components, Blazy for lazy loading images, Slick Carousel for sliders, and Lottie for animations, indicating a rich interactive user experience. Matomo Analytics is integrated for privacy-friendly analytics. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with optimizations like lazy loading in place. Hosting details are inferred from DNS nameservers (vegasystems.de), but no explicit hosting provider information is available. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid with opportunities to improve security headers and performance monitoring.
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.
