information.medien.agrar e.V. is a German non-profit organization focused on providing educational media, projects, and resources related to agriculture. The website serves educators, schools, agricultural professionals, and the general public interested in German agriculture. It offers a variety of media products, educational materials, and organizes projects and events to promote agricultural knowledge. The organization maintains a clear market position as an established non-profit in the agricultural education sector in Germany. Technically, the website is built on Joomla CMS using the Yootheme template and UIkit framework, supplemented by Bootstrap components and Day.js for date/time handling. It is hosted behind Cloudflare DNS, uses HTTPS with excellent SSL configuration, and implements modern web standards ensuring good performance, mobile optimization, and accessibility. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS, uses cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR, and employs CSRF tokens in forms. However, it lacks explicit security headers and a published security policy or incident response contact. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The site integrates multiple trusted third-party services for analytics, marketing, and retargeting, with transparent cookie usage. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and compliant with privacy regulations. It provides clear contact information and maintains consistent branding. Recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing a security policy, and adding a vulnerability disclosure mechanism to further strengthen security posture.

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 Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  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, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The organization operates as a non-profit entity in the education sector, specializing in agricultural media and educational projects. Its business model revolves around providing educational content, organizing initiatives, and supporting agricultural knowledge dissemination. The target customers include educators, schools, agricultural stakeholders, and interested consumers. The presence of multiple partner domains and a dedicated webshop indicates a collaborative ecosystem and diversified revenue streams. The website content and structure reflect a mature digital presence with clear navigation and relevant content, supporting growth and outreach objectives. Strategically, the organization benefits from strong domain legitimacy, GDPR compliance, and transparent communication. Its partnerships and project affiliations enhance its market position. However, the absence of explicit terms of service and security policies suggests areas for operational improvement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR. Use of CSRF tokens in forms indicates attention to input security. The absence of security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap that could be exploited in certain attack scenarios. No signs of malware, phishing, or exposed credentials were found. The integration of third-party tracking and marketing services is transparent but requires ongoing monitoring to mitigate privacy risks. Lack of a published security policy or incident response contact limits the organization's readiness to handle security incidents publicly. Overall, the security posture is good but can be improved by adopting additional headers and formalizing incident response communications.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a formal security policy and provide clear incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve trust with security researchers.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to prevent vulnerabilities from outdated components.
  5. Maintain and enhance cookie consent mechanisms to ensure ongoing compliance with evolving privacy regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Joomla CMS with a Yootheme template and UIkit framework, supplemented by Bootstrap and Day.js libraries. The tech stack is modern and supports responsive design and accessibility. Hosting is behind Cloudflare DNS, providing DNS-level protection and performance benefits. The site loads multiple external resources including fonts, icons, and scripts from trusted sources. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured JSON-LD data. No broken links or errors were detected. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and optimize third-party script usage to reduce potential attack surface.
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.
