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

The website www.ibsh-unternehmerinnenpreis.de represents the IB.SH-Unternehmerinnenpreis, an entrepreneurship award initiative by the Investitionsbank Schleswig-Holstein (IB.SH) aimed at recognizing and promoting female entrepreneurs in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. The site serves as an informational and promotional platform for the award, showcasing winners, jury members, and providing downloadable resources such as FAQs, press releases, and social media kits. The business model is non-profit and government-affiliated, focusing on fostering female entrepreneurship and economic diversity in the region. Technically, the website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a robust open-source content management system, and uses Matomo for analytics, reflecting a privacy-conscious approach. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly with proper meta tags and structured content. However, some security headers are missing, which could be improved to enhance security posture. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and implements cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Contact information is clearly provided with multiple dedicated contacts, enhancing trust and transparency. The absence of explicit security or incident response policies is noted but not uncommon for this type of site. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-aligned with its mission. It effectively supports the IB.SH's goal of empowering female entrepreneurs in Schleswig-Holstein. Strategic improvements in security headers and publishing security policies could further strengthen its security posture and user trust.

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

3 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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  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

Business profile

The IB.SH-Unternehmerinnenpreis website positions itself as a key regional platform supporting female entrepreneurship in Schleswig-Holstein. The award has been established since 2017 and enjoys strong recognition, evidenced by over 90 applications and involvement of credible jury members from government, industry, and media. The business model is focused on non-profit promotion and support, with revenue likely derived from government funding and sponsorships. The target audience includes female entrepreneurs, startups, and business stakeholders in the region. The partnership ecosystem includes government ministries, chambers of commerce, and business networks. The website's content and downloadable materials indicate a mature communication strategy aimed at visibility and engagement. Growth indicators include annual award cycles and expanding media presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent is implemented in compliance with GDPR. The use of Matomo analytics suggests a preference for privacy-friendly tools. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), X-Frame-Options, and HSTS reduces the overall security robustness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The lack of published incident response or security policies is a gap but typical for informational sites. Overall, the site is secure for its purpose but could benefit from enhanced header configurations and transparency on security practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen defense against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance monitoring and logging mechanisms to detect and respond to security incidents promptly.
  5. Continue maintaining GDPR compliance and update privacy and cookie policies as regulations evolve.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a mature and widely used content management system suitable for government and institutional websites. The front-end uses standard HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript with deferred and asynchronous script loading to optimize performance. The site includes responsive design elements ensuring good mobile usability and accessibility. SEO best practices are followed with proper meta tags, canonical URLs, and structured content. The use of Matomo analytics indicates a focus on privacy. Hosting details are not explicitly disclosed, but the domain uses stable name servers. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. No critical technical debt or outdated technologies were detected.
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.
