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.

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.

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
Haus des Stiftens operates in the non-profit sector, targeting foundations, companies, and non-profit organizations interested in social engagement. Its business model revolves around providing services and support to facilitate effective philanthropy and social projects. The organization leverages partnerships and digital tools to extend its reach and impact. The website reflects a mature entity with a consistent brand and a comprehensive service offering.

Security posture
The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent managed via Usercentrics, indicating GDPR awareness. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response information, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness. No security headers were detected in the provided data, which could enhance protection against common web threats. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a non-profit but would benefit from formalized policies and enhanced header configurations.
Recommendations
Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page clearly accessible from the homepage.
Develop and display a security policy and incident response contact information.
Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
Enhance HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
Consider WHOIS privacy settings review or registrar transparency to improve domain trustworthiness.

Notes
The website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including Yoast SEO, LayerSlider, Essential Grid, and Toolset Views, ensuring rich content presentation and SEO optimization. The use of Usercentrics for cookie management shows compliance efforts. Performance is moderate with video backgrounds and layered sliders, which may impact load times but enhance user experience. Accessibility features like skip links and ARIA labels are present, contributing to good usability. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive menus and layouts. The site uses standard JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and includes asynchronous loading for performance. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the data. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and engaging web presence.
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.
