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

The website idm2025.de serves as the official platform for the Internationale Deutsche Meisterschaften Deutsche Jugend- und Junioren-Meisterschaften im Freiwasserschwimmen 2025 held in Rostock, Germany. It provides comprehensive event-related information including schedules, results, downloadable official documents, and greetings from relevant officials. The target audience primarily consists of athletes, officials, organizers, and swimming enthusiasts interested in the event. The business model is focused on event information dissemination and participant support within a niche sports domain. Technically, the website is built on the Joomla CMS platform, utilizing standard Joomla scripts and FontAwesome for icons. The site demonstrates moderate performance and good mobile optimization, with basic accessibility and SEO features. Hosting appears to be via German providers consistent with the event's location. No advanced analytics or tracking tools are detected, indicating a minimal data collection approach. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS but lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security. There is no visible cookie consent mechanism, which is a GDPR compliance gap given the site's European audience. No incident response or security policy information is published, and no contact emails or phone numbers are provided on the main pages. These factors suggest a moderate security posture with room for improvement. Overall, the website is functional and professional for its purpose but would benefit from enhanced security practices, privacy compliance improvements, and clearer contact information to increase trust and compliance with European regulations.

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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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

The website targets a specialized market segment focused on competitive swimming events in Germany. Its competitive advantage lies in providing official and centralized information for the 2025 championships, including downloadable official documents and real-time results. The business model is informational and service-oriented, supporting event participants and organizers. Revenue streams are not evident, suggesting the site is likely funded or supported by sports associations or local government entities. The partnership ecosystem includes the German Swimming Federation (DSV) and local sponsors, as indicated by logos and references. Growth indicators are limited due to the event-specific nature of the site, which is likely seasonal and focused on a single event cycle.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is basic. HTTPS is implemented, ensuring encrypted communication. However, the absence of security headers and cookie consent mechanisms indicates gaps in security best practices and GDPR compliance. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The lack of incident response contact channels and security policies reduces readiness for handling security incidents. The site does not appear to use vulnerable libraries based on the Joomla version and scripts observed, but regular updates are recommended. Overall, the security posture is adequate for an informational site but requires enhancements to meet modern compliance and security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to comply with GDPR requirements for European users.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance with accessibility standards and broaden user inclusivity.
  5. Regularly update Joomla CMS and all dependencies to mitigate risks from known vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Joomla CMS with standard Joomla modules and FontAwesome icons. The HTML is valid and includes meta viewport tags for mobile responsiveness. Performance is moderate with no heavy external scripts or analytics detected, which benefits loading speed. SEO optimization is basic with standard meta tags and RSS/Atom feeds. Accessibility is basic with some ARIA attributes but could be improved. Hosting is via German name servers consistent with the event location. There is no evidence of technical debt or deprecated technologies, but the site lacks advanced modern features such as structured data or rich snippets. Overall, the technical infrastructure is stable but could be modernized for better SEO and accessibility.
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.
