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

Gemüse Online is a professional media platform operated by Verlag Eugen Ulmer, providing specialized information and news for the professional vegetable cultivation sector in Germany. The website offers a variety of content including news articles, surveys, event listings, and a magazine available in print and digital formats. It targets agricultural professionals and stakeholders in the vegetable growing industry, positioning itself as a market leader in this niche. The business model is subscription-based with additional online content and newsletters to engage its audience. Technically, the website employs a modern tech stack including jQuery, AlpineJS, Tailwind CSS, and Glide.js for UI components, alongside Matomo and Google Tag Manager for analytics with GDPR-compliant consent mechanisms. The site is mobile-optimized and includes accessibility features, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. Advertising is managed through the AdSpirit network, with multiple ad placements integrated. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses cookie consent to regulate tracking. While no explicit privacy policy or terms of service pages were found in the provided content, the site demonstrates good security practices such as disabling tracking on excluded paths and hosts. WHOIS data confirms the domain's legitimacy and consistency with the publisher's identity. Overall, the website presents a professional and trustworthy platform with good content quality and technical implementation. However, it would benefit from publishing explicit privacy and terms of service documents and providing clearer contact information to enhance transparency and compliance.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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 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';…

  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

Gemüse Online operates in the media sector, focusing on professional vegetable cultivation. Its competitive advantage lies in its specialized content and market leadership in German-speaking agricultural media. Revenue streams likely include subscriptions, advertising, and sales via partner shops. The target customers are professional growers and agricultural businesses. The site shows growth indicators through regular content updates and partnerships with educational and marketplace platforms. Strategic partnerships with dlv-shop.de, ulmer-akademie.de, and technikboerse.com enhance its ecosystem and service offerings.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place. Use of Matomo analytics with consent shows privacy awareness. However, the absence of published privacy policies, terms of service, security policies, and incident response contacts indicates gaps in compliance and transparency. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The site should improve by adding security headers and formalizing security and privacy documentation to strengthen its posture.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page clearly accessible from the homepage.
  2. Add a terms of service page detailing user rights and obligations.
  3. Implement and publish a security policy including incident response contacts.
  4. Enhance HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Provide explicit company contact emails and phone numbers for transparency and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a custom CMS with modern frontend technologies including Tailwind CSS, AlpineJS, and Glide.js for responsive and interactive UI elements. Analytics are handled via Matomo and Google Tag Manager with GDPR-compliant consent. Advertising is integrated through AdSpirit. The site is mobile-optimized and includes accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA roles. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts and optimized images. Technical risks include reliance on multiple third-party scripts which should be regularly audited for vulnerabilities.
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.
