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

2 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 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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

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

HTV operates as a non-profit sports federation focused on gymnastics and turn sports within Hessen, Germany. Its business model centers on member services, education, event organization, and community support. The federation targets sports clubs, trainers, volunteers, and sports enthusiasts, offering certifications, competitions, and consulting. Partnerships with regional and national sports organizations enhance its ecosystem and outreach. The website reflects a well-structured content strategy aligned with its mission, supporting growth and engagement. Revenue streams likely include membership fees, event participation, and educational programs. The organization maintains a consistent brand and professional online presence, reinforcing its leadership role in the regional sports sector.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security maturity level with enforced HTTPS and privacy-focused analytics via Matomo with cookies disabled. Cookie consent is managed through Cookiebot, providing granular user control and compliance with GDPR. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive information were found in the HTML content. However, some security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options are not explicitly detected and should be implemented or verified. The use of an older jQuery version (1.12.4) may pose potential risks and should be updated. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, indicating an area for improvement in transparency and readiness. Overall, the site balances usability and privacy well but could enhance its security posture with additional headers and updated libraries.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify Content-Security-Policy header to mitigate XSS and related attacks.
  2. Add X-Content-Type-Options header to prevent MIME sniffing.
  3. Add Referrer-Policy header to control referrer information leakage.
  4. Update jQuery library to a current secure version to avoid known vulnerabilities.
  5. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a robust and widely used content management system, indicating a stable and scalable infrastructure. The frontend uses Bootstrap and jQuery 1.12.4, which provides responsive design and interactive features but includes an outdated jQuery version that should be updated. Cookiebot is integrated for cookie consent management, ensuring GDPR compliance. Matomo analytics is used with cookies disabled, reflecting a privacy-conscious approach. Hosting is inferred to be with 1&1 IONOS based on nameservers, a reputable provider. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is well addressed through meta tags and structured navigation. Technical debt is minimal but updating legacy libraries and enhancing security headers would modernize the stack and reduce 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.
