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

IBB Wörn Ingenieure GmbH is a small, established engineering firm based in Germany specializing in infrastructure planning and project execution in the sectors of transportation and energy. Founded in 1996, the company offers comprehensive services including planning, construction supervision, and project management primarily in road construction, civil engineering, and water management. Their website reflects a professional and regionally focused business with detailed project references and industry memberships, indicating a solid market position within their niche. Technically, the website is built with standard modern web technologies (HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript) and hosted via INWX. It demonstrates good mobile optimization, SEO practices, and moderate performance. The site uses HTTPS with excellent SSL configuration but lacks some advanced security headers. Analytics are handled via Plausible, indicating a privacy-conscious approach with minimal user tracking. From a security perspective, the site is well-configured with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, it lacks published security policies, incident response contacts, and cookie consent mechanisms, which are important for GDPR compliance and user trust. The WHOIS data is consistent with the business claims, showing no privacy protection or suspicious registration patterns, supporting the legitimacy of the domain. Overall, the website presents a trustworthy and professional image with room for improvement in privacy compliance and security transparency. Strategic enhancements in these areas would strengthen user trust and regulatory adherence.

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. 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. 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

IBB Wörn Ingenieure GmbH operates as a specialized engineering consultancy focused on infrastructure projects in Germany, targeting local government bodies and construction firms. Their competitive advantage lies in their long-standing regional presence, comprehensive service offerings from planning to execution, and memberships in reputable industry associations. The business model is service-oriented, relying on project-based revenues from public and private sector clients. Growth indicators include recent project completions and a clear portfolio of references. The company maintains a lean digital presence with limited marketing tools, focusing on direct client engagement. Partnerships appear limited to industry associations rather than commercial alliances, suggesting a focused but potentially narrow ecosystem.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and no evident vulnerabilities or sensitive data leaks. The use of minimal external scripts reduces attack surface. However, the absence of security headers like Content-Security-Policy and lack of published security or incident response policies indicate gaps in security best practices. There is no visible vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file, which could hinder responsible vulnerability reporting. GDPR compliance is partially met with a privacy policy but lacks cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the security culture appears functional but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced transparency to improve resilience and user confidence.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to ensure full GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  4. Consider creating a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible security reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits to maintain and improve the security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a clean, modern HTML5 and CSS3 foundation with JavaScript for interactivity. It uses external assets hosted on its own domain and minimal third-party scripts, primarily for analytics (Plausible) and social media integration (LinkedIn). The hosting provider is INWX, a reputable German registrar and hosting service. Performance is moderate with good mobile responsiveness and SEO optimization. No CMS or complex frameworks were detected, indicating a likely custom or static site approach. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and implement advanced security headers. The technical stack is stable with low technical debt but could be modernized with progressive enhancements for performance and security.
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.
