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

The IHK Lüneburg-Wolfsburg operates as an essential government-related entity focused on supporting and representing regional businesses. Its business model centers on providing advisory, training, and advocacy services, targeting SMEs and entrepreneurs in the region. The chamber maintains a strong market position as a regional economic authority with a broad membership base. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image, leveraging partnerships with Microsoft (Office365 booking), Inxmail (newsletter), and social media platforms to engage its audience. Revenue streams likely include membership fees, training fees, and government funding. The organization demonstrates a mature digital presence with moderate use of marketing and analytics tools.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and CSRF tokens implemented in forms, reducing common web vulnerabilities. Cookie consent is managed via Cookiebot, indicating GDPR compliance. However, the absence of a publicly available security policy or incident response information limits transparency. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of third-party scripts is controlled but should be regularly audited. Security headers were not explicitly detected in the provided data, suggesting room for improvement. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from enhanced documentation and header implementation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and enforce security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency by detailing data retention policies and cookie usage in the privacy policy.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the CoreMedia CMS platform, leveraging a modern JavaScript and CSS stack with asynchronous script loading for performance. It integrates third-party services such as Cookiebot for cookie management, eTracker for analytics, and Userlike for chat support. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with preloading of fonts and resources to improve load times. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in resource loading and caching. The technical infrastructure appears stable and well-maintained, supporting a professional user experience aligned with the organization's business goals.
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.
