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

Gesellschaft für angewandte Psychologie in Architektur und Onkologie e.V. (GAPAO) is a small non-profit organization based in Germany focused on the interdisciplinary field of architecture psychology and oncology. The website serves as an educational platform offering training, symposiums, and research projects targeted at professionals in architecture, psychology, and healthcare. The organization collaborates with universities and professional chambers, positioning itself as a niche leader in this specialized domain. Technically, the website is built on Webflow, uses modern web fonts, and includes cookie consent mechanisms, but has a misconfigured Google reCAPTCHA which could expose it to spam risks. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced, but lacks advanced security headers and explicit incident response information. Overall, the site is professional, accessible, and trustworthy with room for improvement in security and compliance details.

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 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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-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

GAPAO operates in the healthcare and education sectors as a non-profit entity, focusing on psycho-oncology and architecture psychology. Its business model revolves around providing specialized training, hosting symposiums like MAP25, and conducting research projects. The target audience includes architects, psychologists, medical professionals, and students. The organization leverages partnerships with universities and professional chambers to enhance credibility and outreach. Revenue streams likely include membership fees, event participation fees, and donations. The website content and structure reflect a focused and consistent branding strategy, supporting its niche market position.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and implements a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. However, the Google reCAPTCHA on the event registration form is disabled or misconfigured, increasing the risk of spam submissions. No advanced security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which could improve protection against common web attacks. There is no visible security policy or incident response contact information, which limits transparency in security management. Overall, the security posture is moderate with clear areas for enhancement to meet higher compliance and protection standards.

Recommendations

  1. Properly configure and enable Google reCAPTCHA on all forms to mitigate spam and abuse.
  2. Implement essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and cookies to ensure compliance with privacy regulations and minimize tracking.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct periodic security assessments to maintain a robust security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Webflow CMS, leveraging modern web fonts from Google Fonts and jQuery 3.5.1. It uses a cookie consent solution from Cookie-Script.com and embeds YouTube videos that set marketing cookies. Hosting is provided via rzone.de as indicated by the nameservers. Performance is moderate with responsive design for mobile devices. The site lacks some advanced security headers and has a disabled Google reCAPTCHA, which is a technical risk. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern but requires attention to security and spam prevention.
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.
