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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

IHK Koblenz holds a strong regional market position as a statutory chamber of commerce, serving a large membership base. Its business model is focused on public service, regulatory functions, and member support rather than commercial revenue. The website supports this by offering educational resources, event information, and service portals. The organization maintains partnerships with regional and national chambers (ihk-rlp.de, dihk.de, ahk.de), enhancing its network and influence. The presence of multiple social media channels and digital services indicates a mature digital strategy aimed at engagement and transparency. No direct revenue streams or subsidiaries are evident from the site, consistent with its public law status.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, CSRF tokens on forms, and a robust cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. The use of third-party analytics and marketing scripts is transparent and controlled via consent. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and security.txt files represents a compliance gap. Security headers beyond X-UA-Compatible are missing, which could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the site is secure but could improve in transparency and defense-in-depth measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement additional HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Create and host a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate risks from external dependencies.
  5. Enhance user trust by providing more detailed information about data retention policies and security certifications.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the CoreMedia CMS platform, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries and CSS for a responsive and accessible user experience. It integrates multiple third-party services including eTracker for analytics, LinkedIn Insight, Facebook Pixel for marketing, and ChatHero for chatbot functionality. The site uses a cookie consent manager (CCM19) to comply with privacy regulations. Performance is moderate with preloading of fonts and stylesheets, though no explicit hosting provider information is available. The site is mobile-optimized and includes accessibility features such as sign language and easy language options. Technical debt appears low, but security header implementation could be improved. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs effectively with room for incremental improvements.
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.
