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

    • 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

  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

Greatnet.de operates in the competitive German webhosting market, focusing on cost-effective domain and hosting packages. Their business model relies on subscription fees with clear contract terms and pricing transparency. The company maintains a partner relationship with 1blu.de, indicating collaboration within the hosting ecosystem. The absence of social media and limited contact details suggests a lean operational model. The website content and structure support a target audience of small businesses and individuals requiring reliable hosting solutions. Growth potential may be enhanced by expanding digital marketing and security transparency.

Security posture

The website demonstrates basic security awareness with a cookie consent banner and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, the lack of detected HTTPS enforcement and missing security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security posture. No dedicated security policy or incident response information is published, which could impact trust and compliance. The WHOIS data is standard for .de domains with privacy restrictions, showing no suspicious patterns. To improve, the company should implement HTTPS site-wide, add security headers, and publish security and incident response policies to enhance compliance and customer trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate across the entire website.
  2. Add essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and compliance.
  4. Enhance contact information by adding verified company emails and physical address details.
  5. Improve mobile optimization and accessibility to enhance user experience and SEO.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built with standard HTML, CSS, and JavaScript without use of modern frameworks or CMS platforms. The site structure is simple and functional with clear navigation. Performance is moderate with no advanced optimization detected. Mobile responsiveness is basic but present. SEO is basic with meta description and title tags but no Open Graph or JSON-LD structured data found. Hosting provider is not explicitly identified. The site uses a cookie consent banner implemented via JavaScript. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected. Technical debt appears low but modernization opportunities exist to improve security, performance, and SEO.
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.
