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

Fundraiser-Magazin is a German-language niche publication specializing in social marketing, fundraising, and non-profit sector news. It targets professionals and organizations involved in social causes, donations, associations, and foundations. The website leverages WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including Yoast SEO, email marketing integrations via Sendinblue (Brevo), and push notifications through WonderPush. The site is well-structured with good SEO and mobile optimization, providing relevant content for its audience. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks published privacy policies and security headers, which are areas for improvement. No signs of content blocking or WAF interference were detected, and the site is safe for general audiences.

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 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';…

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 website occupies a specialized market segment serving the social marketing and fundraising community in Germany. Its business model revolves around media publication and content delivery, likely monetized through advertising and partnerships. The presence of social media channels and structured data indicates a professional digital presence. However, the absence of explicit contact information and legal pages may limit trust for some users. The domain and hosting setup appear standard and legitimate, supporting a small-sized media entity. Growth potential exists through enhanced compliance and expanded content offerings.

Security posture

The site demonstrates basic security hygiene with HTTPS and GDPR cookie consent via Usercentrics. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could mitigate common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response information are published, which reduces transparency. The use of third-party marketing and push notification services introduces moderate tracking and data collection. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be strengthened by implementing recommended headers, publishing privacy and security policies, and establishing incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page detailing data processing and user rights.
  2. Add terms of service and security policy pages to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  3. Implement security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for business and security inquiries.
  5. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contacts.

Technical notes

Notes

The website runs on WordPress 6.8.3 with a professional theme (Colormag Pro) and several plugins for SEO, sharing, email marketing, and push notifications. The tech stack is modern and well-integrated, supporting good SEO and mobile responsiveness. Performance is moderate, with no critical technical debt observed. The site uses structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine understanding. Hosting details are not explicit but DNS is managed via UI-DNS services. There is room for improvement in accessibility and security header implementation to reduce technical risks.
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.
